View Full Version : Lesbians have weird brains....
Not weird but since headline journalism is all the rage.....
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12689293/
Lesbians’ brains react differently to sex hormones than those of heterosexual women.
An earlier study of gay men also showed their brain response was different from straight men — an even stronger difference than has now been found in lesbians.
Lesbians’ brains reacted somewhat, though not completely, like those of heterosexual men, a team of Swedish researchers said in Tuesday’s edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Why does anyone even care how their brains work when there are so many better things about them to study?

Uh, why do you think the study was performed in the first place?
"Yes... So, we're going to study your.. uh.. brain chemistry. Please strip and begin touching each other."
<two hours later>
"I'm sorry, we forgot to attach the electrodes. Please begin again."

I worked at a lesbian-owned bike shop. Not a single pair of denim shorts anywhere near there.
You are confusing "lesbian" with "fat ugly housewife soccer-mom from St. Louis"

your personal experience is that all lesbians wear jean shorts?
you think there is something in the brain of lesbians that say i must wear ugly shorts made of denim?

you are ridiculous.

LMAO @ the noob.
Stick around, you'll see the light.

Ok. i can't make any generalizations about lesbians from TN, as I have never been dumb enough to spend enough time there to make an observation.
Some things I do know about Berkeley lesbians:
- They have really nice gardens.
- They love Subarus.
- Many of them ride expensive road bikes, and they are generally better at maintaining them then men are.
you are ridiculous.
Correct.
Problem?

-Agreed on the Subarus and gardens
Here they all have this pseudo-mullet, spiked hair thing...really odd.

The point is that hasty generalizations are offensive, slightly true, and somewhat funny. Once you quite being so serious, you will laugh.

Im sorry you didnt think it was funny. I'll try to be more offensive next time.

i stand corrected in regards to the jean shorts.
someone on RM (name unmentioned) says that the predominantly lesbian neighborhood he/she lives in is filled with jean shorts and sleeveless flannel shirts.

Vindication is so sweet.

You haven't noticed this is the common theme here?

I dont see many of them on bikes here.

How about:
All the lesbians in TN are dating their sisters and adopting inbred children.

That might not be true :confused:
People only get offended if there is some element of truth.
In my experience there are 3 types of lesbians:
1. Normal, cool girls that just happen to be gay (still tend to fall into certain roles in their relationships though)
2. Tomboy-ish she-men with the spiky hair, flannel shirts, denim shorts, sometimes a Harley, and often a chip on the shoulder
3. Really attractive and generally slutty girls that like making out with other girls, but are really straight and are doing it because:
A. They're attention whores and think appearing "kinky" will get them a guy
B. They had a string of really bad (like really, REALLY bad) relationships with guys and just gave up
That is all.

He threw in denim shorts and flannel shirts to appease the masses.
if the biggest topic i ever get called out on is that lesbians may or may not wear denim shorts, then i can live with that.

I'm thinking of a number and that number is good as long as it doesn't mix with other numbers.

He's angling for a "dykes on bikes" kind of thing here Shirley. Just go with it.
