CNN: Menses Make Women Vote Like Maniacs
— Ace

The monthly visitor, a "study" claims, tends to make women... more extreme, depending on their relationship status.

Actually it's not the menstruation, it's the peak fertility part of their cycle. But "menses" sounds funnier.

It looks like single women become diehard liberal partisans when they're fertile, and women in committed relationships become more... well, Republican.

I have no idea if this is true. I suppose there might be some biochemical mechanism that causes women to think more about their future when ovulating. Maybe there's a biochemical impulse to start thinking about future security. If so, I imagine that would mean single, liberal-leaning women might start thinking about Daddy Government, and married women might start thinking about pro-family policies.

But supposin' don't make it true, and "studies" are, by and large, a non-scientific enterprise chiefly occupied with extracting money from taxpayers to produce junk women's-health pop "science" for slick-covered magazines like Cosmo, and, once upon a time, Newsweek.

Still, whatever, I suppose it's possible. Hormones are powerful things.

This guy proposes a dumb theory to put down married women:

Here’s how Durante explains this: When women are ovulating, they “feel sexier,” and therefore lean more toward liberal attitudes on abortion and marriage equality. Married women have the same hormones firing, but tend to take the opposite viewpoint on these issues, she says.

“I think they’re overcompensating for the increase of the hormones motivating them to have sex with other men,” she said. It’s a way of convincing themselves that they’re not the type to give in to such sexual urges, she said.

Wow. How about a more obvious answer -- if an ovulating single woman is thinking about the natural consequence of sex, childbirth, and therefore becomes more interested in abortion, how about married women are viewing that same natural consequence and thinking about pro-family policies?

But no, it's a defense mechanism to keep them from humping the gardener.

By the way, I have no idea why a primordial hormonal brain impulse, connected intimately to possible childbirth, would result in women thinking about "marriage equality."

Call me crazy, but when I think about primordial hormonal brain impulses, I'm thinking they tend to be pretty simple, and directly related to the biological imperatives of a living animal, such as survival, reproduction, and some very basic things like social status within the herd.

And not abstract questions of higher-level rationalization like "Shouldn't gays, who have relatively little to do with childbirth and nothing at all to do with the rush of hormones preparing me for bearing children, also have the right to marry in a socially-advanced industrial Western nation?"

Hey, Researchers: Maybe women's ovulation is also triggering a revulsion to Mitt Romney's $5 trillion tax cut for the wealthy. You never know what might have evolved in lower hominids' brains 1 million years ago.

Maybe the early hominids had some kind of prophecy about Mitt Romney's Vampire Capitalism.

Maybe that warning's been magically hard-coded into women's brains in order to make sure Barack Obama wins an election a million years later.

But gardener-humping is something that we must avoid at all costs (unless you do your own yardwork) so I say, GO GOP!!!

Liberal women tend to be less attractive, more likely to not shave their legs and pits on a regular basis, often skip bikini waxing to watch MSNBC or go to a gathering for a community based Vagina Chronicles reading, and view showering on a daily basis is bad for the environment, and therefore liberal  women tend to be more often single, and because they cant get enough dick it makes makes them bitchey.

76 An aside. Mama wants to have another baby, so she is on top of her cycle like a crack addict on, umm, crack. When she is most fertile, she is a wildcat. And she does nice things for me, too, unrelated to the humpty hump. There was some post the other day about Dems being the party of single women. I can imagine that single women have some feeling about their cycle, too. And since they want to humpty hump, too, but don't want babies, I could see that abortion/contraception politics is going to be more important those two or three days a month.

100 Apropos of nothing, I'm watching Godzilla vs. Megaguirus (2000). Japan has gone completely green because they figured out Godzilla wants to eat their nuclear power plants. And then he attacks anyway.

The current plan is to create a weapon that creates a miniature black hole which they will launch at Godzilla from a satellite.

As yet no one seems to see a problem with this plan.

Let's say for a minute that this stuff is true.  (It's not super hard to believe, since women are as changeable as the wind - especially pre-menopause.)  My question is "so what?"  Is there anyone who still needs more evidence that women are irrational and generally make poor political decisions?  Giving them the franchise was the single worst mistake in the history of the republic, and assured our national doom.  They make moral and political decisions based on emotion, and thus should not vote, serve on juries or as judges, or be allowed to influence policy or culture.

113 46 The polls do reflect that single women break for the leftards lopsidely, while married women almost as lopsidedly break for the GOP. A source of maddening frustration for singles such as myself. --- Sounds like a chicken / egg argument. Does marriage make women conservative or are conservative women more likely to be married than liberal ones?

Posted by: Brandon In Baton Rouge at October 24, 2012 01:15 PM (e0xKF)

114 You already know not to trust the research when the researcher makes conclusions like this:

> “I think they’re overcompensating for the increase of the hormones motivating them to have sex with other men,” she said. It’s a way of convincing themselves that they’re not the type to give in to such sexual urges, she said.

Of course it could also be the journalist put a lot of that in her mouth. Note that the last sentence is not actually a quote.

Is there anything in the research that indicates the women are motivated to have sex with other men?

Not as reported.

So you have simple chemical change A. Something hypothetically measured B. And something not measured at all C. And the scientist concludes C causes B. But if C is of the same nature as B (a complex behavior or emotion) then this extrapolation violates Occam's Razor by multiplying uncertainties. We need to understand the step from simple chemical to complex emotion or behavior, not invent an intermediate step that gains us nothing but strokes the researcher's bias.

Also, and easier to track:

> The researchers found that during the fertile time of the month, when levels of the hormone estrogen are high, single women appeared more likely to vote for Obama and committed women appeared more likely to vote for Romney, by a margin of at least 20%,

Isn't this what the basic marriage gap is...at all times of month? It would be interesting if part of the time married women favored Obama and part of the time single women favored Romney, but I don't find the statistic by itself as telling me anything new.

It's hard to keep up. I never bother to ask her how she feels about politics or current events during those times.

153 "I suppose there might be some biochemical mechanism that causes women to think more about their future when ovulating." ...you "suppose" there "might be"? instead of accepting as true the studies that have been posted, iirc, at this very SITE in the past to that effect? it's a very well-documented phenomenon that women's sexual preferences change at different times in their cycles, tending to prefer more masculine features and scents and competitive behaviours when in the luteal phase of their menstruation. it's honestly not THAT far a strech to suggest that wanting to be "hip, cool, and edgy" is a secondary psychological effect of "feeling sexier". after all, with all of the popular culture indoctrination about "supporting gay marriage = cool", it's really not a stretch at all to suggest that women who are trying to be "cool" are adopting more "popular" (re: TV-popular) views to feel more edgy and sexual. (not that his "overcompensation" put-down of married women is a *remotely* reasonable digression, natch!) i don't know why "primordial" is an appropriate adjective to describe a cycle that is definitively NOT particularly associated with limbic function. believe it our not, our pretty-awesome human brains really *have* evolved a bit from their "primordial" progenitors...and the cortices of higher functions really do play into the psychological aspect of our caprices than do the more promordial areas of the brain!

The reason more women vote liberal is because they innately have the nurture gene and that corresponds to providing for everyone regardless and to defend what they perceive are the persecuted.   They mostly rely on emotions to vote.

 

That said, I wouldn't change that trait if I could.  Its one of the things that balances out the sexes in a positive way.

It's actually funny how obsessed they are with their uterus despite the fact they have zero chance of accidently getting pregnant.

Total bullshit.  Single women are just scared of getting drunk and carried away and ending up pregnant, and not being able to do anything about it because some Jesus-freak men decided they can't get an abortion.  Has nothing to do with hormones per se, it's simply fear.

 

Married women generally don't fear an unplanned pregnancy, and if they do they are damn sure using ironclad contraception so they don't have to worry about it.  Again it has nothing to do with hormones, they are just more in control of their sex life and so don't care as much about abortion rights.

 

Some women get more pro-abortion as they get older and out of childbearing age, but have teenage kids.  I know many such women who are otherwsie conservative even on other social issues, but if their little Suzy gets knocked up they don't want their vacay ruined by a pregnant teenager.

When I married my wife, it was with the understanding that  she would not be able to have children, and I was okay with that.

 

Fortunately, I could knock up a butternut squash.  Men get  married for other reasons than your uterus.

60% of white men didn't vote for Obama - of that you may rest assured.  And even so - the fact is that our side has been forced to take on many limp-wrist do-gooder ideas in order to keep the women pacified.  The so-called "compassionate conservatism" is a prime example of how the need to  pander to feminine irrationality and mommy-ism has damaged the Right.  Women have force the Republican party to damage itself, and become more like the demotards than would otherwise be the case.

When you give people political power, they will use it for what they percieve to be self interest.  Thus, it should only be given to those who:

A.  Have a vested interest in maintaining law, order, stability, and prosperity.

B.  Are able to suppress the influence of emotions

C.  Who are not likely to have grievances to nurse - like payback for perceived slights or mistreatment

 

Our society has failed to control the distribution of power.  As a result, every year things get worse.  The Leftists are making inroads in every institution.  If Obama had not failed so badly and so totally, this election would be a walk-over for him. 

Democracy is allowing the grievance mongers and the looters to drag down their societies.  This is the inevitable result of universal suffrage (made worse by historical accidents that have created widespread ethnic balkanization).

"Here’s how Durante explains this: When women are ovulating, they “feel sexier,” and therefore lean more toward liberal attitudes on abortion and marriage equality. Married women have the same hormones firing, but tend to take the opposite viewpoint on these issues, she says. “I think they’re overcompensating for the increase of the hormones motivating them to have sex with other men,” she said. It’s a way of convincing themselves that they’re not the type to give in to such sexual urges, she said."

 

I'll bet you $500 that this piece of work claims to have only contempt for marriage, when the truth is, she's never felt completely loved by a man.

 

Hey ladies, I understand why you have to pretend contempt for women who have everything you've ever dreamed about.  Bite me.

Let's see. men make up something like 85% plus of rapists, about the same as murderers.

Therefore, I can come to only one conclusion :

Men can make more intelligent vote choices because they are not affected at all by their hormones.
