Maybe he meant “unibrow”.
the study will conclude that it’s the white christian male dominant society in which we live that don’t accept their lifestyle. therefore, because of ALL the vicious criticism lesbians eat to much to heal the pain. solution, pass new legislation, under obamacare, making it a crime for anyone to be critical of a lesbian’s lifestyle. sound ridiculous?
Why can't we have some fun at their expense?
So many snide remarks and so little time...

I guess in real life ALL lesbians do not look like Halle Berry, Catherine Bell, Tiffany Amber Theissen, and such.
Not even ‘Ginger and Mary Ann’?
They don’t wrestle in Jello and mud for our pleasure?..
OH FIE......For shame.....
Only in the movies.
Not enough “Curves for Women” clubs...it’s tha fault of The Man.
Lesbians are fat because they are generally little homebodies who like to eat. Sometimes, they have been abused by men and the fat is a protection against guys coming on to them. Truly.
Gay men are obsessed with body image and the phallus and sexual activity of the most degrading sort. It’s all over for most gay men when they reach the age of 30.
You don’t need a government report for this. Ten minutes in the Chelsea section of Manhattan will tell you all you need to know.
....and it will take 10 years to balance our budget??? This is ONE example of the enormous wasteful, nonsensible spending by our govt.....God help us.
“Fat and Lesbian is no way to go through life, Son!” *SMIRK*

The fact is they just don’t know dick.
“Eunice Kennedy Shriver” is funding this?
Interesting - I seem to remember her being stick-thin, LOL!
There was a Saturday Night Live sketch where some frat boys had one wish left from a genie and wanted to see two hot lesbians getting it on. Unfortunately the one making the wish left out the word "hot" and got the comfortable shoes, flannel shirt very butch type. Oops.
“...they are generally little homebodies who like to eat...”
Oh, no. Wait till I tell my wife what she married.
And a Portia Di Rossi, comes along in about 1 in about 10,000 cases.
1.5 mil and all they had to do was e-mail Rosie O’Donnell and ask!
Might have something to do with who or what they are eating.
Oh my! I actually LOLed at your comment. I’m soooo bad.
