What a bunch of dicks: $900,000 in grants to study penis size in the gay community

The American government has wasted your hardearned tax dollars on some pretty stupid stuff, but the length and girth of this one tops them all.

The Daily Mail UK reveals the hard facts about how you’re getting screwed. Or at least how someone’s getting screwed:

Another completely transparent excuse to show Anthony Weiner's weiner again

As the country plunges further into debt and with the small task of securing a multi-trillion dollar deal still on the cards, it has emerged that thousands of tax dollars were wasted on a study examining the correlation between a gay man’s penis size and his sex life. 

The study was among several backed by the National Institutes of Health who granted almost $900,000 in one year on this and other studies.

We don’t even want to know what the other studies may have been. We’re still reeling over this one.

It has not been ascertained how much of the $900,000 grant went to he 2009 report, called The Association Between Penis Size and Sexual Health Among Men Who Have Sex with Men, but the coalition release stated that at least $9.4 million went to a ten-year study that included the penis-size research.

According to Fox, the grant was administered by NIH’s National Institute on Drug Abuse, and went first to a group called Public Health Solutions and a researcher with the National Development and Research Institutes before going to individual researchers.

It compiled data from a survey of more than one thousand gay and bisexual men at events in New York City held for the gay community.

And now, let’s conclude with the highlight of the story.

Those who participated were given a free movie voucher.

And if they were lucky, they found Pee Wee Herman in the theater of their choice demonstrating the results of the survey.

  • Did they check the peckers of Ted Haggard, Larry Craig and Mark Foley? What about Laura Ingraham's schlong?..which is currently buried in Mitch McConnell's keister!!!

    • If McConnell caves to Harry Reid & the Dems, something should be pounded in his "keister". But I'm not sure "Laura Ingaham's schlong" is a realistic choice for that. A. She does'nt look like a tranny, & B. Maybe her foot should be there instead, if it happens.

  • They had to know the right size ribbed condoms, for better traction in the mud.
    I know, I know, I just couldn't resist......

  • Don't the biggest dicks reside in Washington DC and they enjoy "blowing" away your tax dollars?

  • The taxpayer took the high hard one in this story. Hell, almost every story about what your tax dollars get spent on.

  • Imagine being a new graduate student looking to participate in a study so you can earn a little extra money. You see a notice on the university web site, offering summer wages for support work in a study funded by the federal government. You apply and get hired. You're thrilled. You can hardly believe your good luck. Then you show up for work the first day and discover you'll be spending the summer measuring penises.

    Only in America.

  • Typical Liberals, they tell you what to do with your dick, how to use your dick and now they want to know what size it is. Do all liberals look at the world from Knee level? It appears liberals have a dick fetish. If they would stop behaving like Anthony Weiner perhaps they could worry about the roads, economy, the unemployed, you know little thinhgs like that, instead of their own little things.
