"when presented with the first two letter sounds [for example "ma"], listeners were 75 percent accurate," I think that's because gays tend to put more into the "a" hole.

Well, this is showing that even though liberals lecture us about not adhering to stereotypes, that indeed stereotypes have some basis in fact.
The “lisping” in pronunciation is a characteristic of male homosexuals. A stereotype, but one which arose for a reason.
How many “straight” females wear flannel shirts, and have mannish haircuts? Another stereotype.

Gays who are clannish talk with a lisp-It’s one way they ID each other.

I suppose that this is some of the research that Obama wants the gov to continue to finance with our money.

Bye the bye, is April Lexington referencing the first battle of the Revolutionary War, April 19, 1775?

Obama attempts to speak with the almost-extinct
Mid-Alantic accent, but fails to include the classic falling diphthongs ("get in the cah" as opposed to "get in the car", "nothing to feah but feah itself") and the general softening of consonants. In other words, an affection, and a poor one at that.
