Men who are physically strong are more likely to take a right wing political stance, while weaker men are inclined to support the welfare state, according to a new study.

Researchers discovered political motivations may have evolutionary links to physical strength.

Men's upper-body strength predicts their political opinions on economic redistribution, according to the research.

Well......duh. LOL
 
Of course, it suits their "survival of the fittest" views on life.
 
Perhaps it is because they are more able to take care of themselves without the help of others.

Right. Because upper body strength is such a vital skill in the modern world. :roll:
 
Physical strong men are notably less intelligent. So I think we've found the connection.
 
Not that it matters, but this sounds like bunk science to me. Upper body strength is a product of hitting the gym. I like how they cite Arnold, a world famous juicer, as a product of right wing genetics.

Great Britain's DailyMail traditionally supports the Conservative Party.

Big surprise, eh?

I could post a lot of studies but I have better things to do with my time, like cut some grass.

How does upper body strength come out against a hand gun?
 
Publish or perish. :roll:

Not necessarily, my upper body strength was a result of hard physical work.

The problem with gyms, your end up with designer body's and since your dealing with balanced weights while pumping iron that extra bulk has little value in the real world when true muscle strength may be needed.

Arnold is perhaps the most liberal right-winger you'd ever find - perhaps it has to do with being surrounded by Kennedys for so long.

I think it has a lot more to do with his Hollywood background. He's always been relatively progressive on social issues, while retaining fiscal conservatism.
 
Why yes I will listen to the tabloid.
 
.... So gay men are conservative? Who knew.

Helps to be socially progressive when you're banging the maid.

You forgot about the orgies he was allegedly having back in the 80s. Being socially progressive comes in handy there as well.

You must be Hercules then. Seriously, where do you get that from? It is simply untrue.

Yeah. The hardcore social conservatives definitely don't have any history of sexual scandals :lamo

In all fairness it does still help to be socially progressive. If you're not pretending to be a prude, you come off as less of a hypocrite when it's revealed that you're banging the maid.

There is that. Hooray liberalism! Orgies for all!
