We ran across a story in Scientific American headlined, “Women Apologize More Frequently Than Men.” Maybe it says more about us than it does about the survey, but our first thought was, “That may explains why the most effeminate president in history is constantly apologizing to everyone for everything.”
Sarah Palin said Arizona Governor Jan Brewer had bigger cojones than Obama. And we provided photographic evidence that it was true. Now Scientific American explains the whys and wherefores:
… recent research revealed a curious twist for why women tend to apologize more.
Researchers analyzed the number of self-reported offences and apologies made by 66 subjects over a 12-day period. And yes, they confirmed women consistently apologized more times than men did. But they also found that women report more offenses than men. So the issue is not female over-apology. Instead, there may be a gender difference in what is considered offensive in the first place. The research appears in the September online issue of Psychological Science.
In a second study, three separate offences were rated by 120 subjects on a 7 point scale. And women consistently rated the three offences as more severe than men did. Turns out that men are just as likely as women to apologize for a given offense. But their threshold for thinking they have committed an offense is higher.
Have we offended anyone with our contention that Obama is effeminate? Don’t expect us to apologize.

Joy Behar + testicles + teleprompter - minus 10 I.Q. points = Barack Obama
His yarbles are in the testicle lock box and michelle is the keymaster. His wee willy winkle is just that , wee. Hmmmm - all wee wee'd up.
Maybe he just has a metro-sexual Y chromosome? Stuff happens, ya' know.
I want to see his birth certificate! Show us your birth certificate NOW, Mr. Obama!
I want to see proof that he is, in fact, a man.
Hillary is going to be so pissed!
What gave it away for me was the lump in his old lady's skirt!
Further proving the point made in ihatethemedia column "Palin says Obama isn't just our first black president, he's also our first female president!"
Gotta feel bad for women and blacks - they finally get a president and it's this disastrous Incompetent-in-Chief . . .
Same goes for the first female speaker of the house. PELOSI.
Just remember the doofus doing his "dance" with Ellen on TV. The man is a lesbian.
Me, being a 100% real man, can't sit like that - the anatomy just doesn't twist that way (if you know what I'm sayin). Myshell is awfully 'manly' looking - Hmmmm, I wonder...
Me neither. Never have trusted a man who crosses his legs like that or wears sunglasses on the top of his head. The other day my wife tried to introduce me to another couple who she considered potential friends, and the man was sitting in a sports bar with his legs crossed and sunglasses on top of his head. You can imagine how that went.
There is a old Far Side cartoon (or maybe a pre-Far Side Larson cartoon) where one cowboy says to the other "Don't sit like that."
