Feds Spend $1.5 Million to Study Why Lesbians Are Fat

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded $1.5 million to study biological and social factors for why “three-quarters” of lesbians are obese and why gay males are not, calling it an issue of “high public-health significance."

Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, Mass., has received two grants administered by NIH’s Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) to study the relationship between sexual orientation and obesity.

“Obesity is one of the most critical public health issues affecting the U.S. today,” the description of the grant reads. “Racial and socioeconomic disparities in the determinants, distribution, and consequences of obesity are receiving increasing attention.”

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?

There is precious little humor these days as it is with the liberals running amok.

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.....

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.

You can ask any lesbian about nutrition, healthy eating habits, exercise, regular checkups, etc. etc.

The fact is they just don’t know dick.

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.
