"Homophobia" And Low Intelligence Are Linked, Study Finds (hurl alert)

A study has found a scientific link between low levels of intelligence and those who express homophobic views.

The findings, published by researchers at the University of Queensland, Australia, supports existing studies that have previously drawn correlations between having a low IQ and holding prejudiced views.

However, this marks the first time a link between lower intelligence and homophobia has been examined in populations outside of the US.

Published in the journal Intelligence, the study drew from a sample of more than 11,500 Australians.

The research team analysed data from the 2012 Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey, with questions intended to assess the cognitive abilities of respondents, as well as a 2015 HILDA survey that questioned respondents about their opinions on equal rights.

Among other questions, participants were asked to place the statement ‘Homosexual couples should have the same rights as heterosexual couples do’ on a scale of one (strongly disagree) to seven (strongly agree).

It was ultimately discovered that, the lower a person’s intelligence was found to be, the more likely they would be to express prejudiced views against same-sex couples.

The authors of the study wrote:

There are well-known correlations between low cognitive ability and support of prejudicial or non-egalitarian attitudes.

This paper adds to existing knowledge by providing the first analyses of the associations between cognitive ability and attitudes towards LGBT issues. Individuals with low cognitive ability are less likely to support equal rights for same-sex couples.

The authors concluded: ‘Our results suggest that cognitive abilities play a critical, albeit underappreciated, role in prejudice. Consequently, we recommend a heightened focus on cognitive ability in research on prejudice and a better integration of cognitive ability into prejudice models.’

The link was found to be particularly strong during the assessment of verbal ability, and was found to hold true even after factoring in variables such as education and socio-economic status.

Faggots are gross.

I work production for the Big 3 studios here in Hollywood and surrounded by poofters. They make sure they are in high exec positions and also ensure that straight dudes, like myself, dont get ahead of the studio food chain. Unfortunately for them, they didnt get that chance as I outsmarted these pukes..

Indeed, it takes a vast amount of intelligence to conclude the butthole is not a proper place for sperm. Good grief. The sophistry level is at a 10+ here.

In other words, this university cult says if you think 2 men slobbering on and humping on each other is twisted, you’re stupid.

What is stupid are the stooges who had nothing better to do than concoct and peddle this bull chet.

Low intelligence is definitely linked to people who use the word homophobia, which means fear of homosexuals, to describe people who, for any reason, don’t like homosexuality. Or simply don’t accept it as normal. Which it obviously isn’t based on statistics.

In short, dumb people use the term homophobia. Really dumb people.
People with very low levels of language skills. That dumb.

Studies can pretty much prove anything you want them to.

Hmmm... I've read that Blacks are about the most anti-gay group of people out there.

Are they implying Black people are stupid?

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Homophobic? No one I know is afraid of a bunch of daisies.

A better term is Homomisia. A revulsion of all things homo. I learned that term from another FReeper.

Also good for Islamomisia.

Exactly - Romans 1:22 in action - as I mentioned above

Romans 1:22 King James Version

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

[SaveFerris]

yes

[Old Yeller]

Spot on with Romans.

[SaveFerris]

Yes sir. Thank you. An alarming trend.

Romans 1:22 King James Version (KJV)

Romans 1:24-28 King James Version (KJV)

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

Isaiah 3:9 New International Version (NIV)

The look on their faces testifies against them;
they parade their sin like Sodom;
they do not hide it. Woe to them!
They have brought disaster upon themselves.



Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama was a wondrous, smooth-talking, false prophet for the god of this world.

Along with his friends, they furthered the destruction of this nation. Why anyone would vote Democrat is beyond me.

In June 2016, U.S. President Barack Obama established a 7.7-acre (3.11 ha) area around the site as the Stonewall National Monument, the first LGBT U.S. National Park site

Well, well, well. Lookee who is there dedicating the Stonewall Inn as a national monument. There was a banner thanking "Congressman Jerry..." - ValJar on the right and Bill de Blasio on the left.

Knowledge of biology denotes “low intelligence.”

[NetAddicted]

Bingo.

I needed both of those for my collection - thanks

I did a study linking people who conduct studies to mental retardism. This is a joke.

[DAC21]

Who would fund such a study? American Society of LBGTQ? Talk about a predetermined outcome.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

It should be called the University of Queersland. /sarc

The study is nothing new. Low IQ people have a problem dealing with people/conditions that they do not understand and/or have been brainwashed into opposing without any rational reasoning by other low IQ people.

My cross dressing half brother visited that place rather than “our” Dad, when is was in the ICU for 2 weeks. Never spoke to him again.
