9 thoughts on “Study: Look at These Birds Daily for Longer Life?”
There’s a huge gap that includes neurophysiological and endocrinological components between ” … Gazing at breasts …” and “lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates and lesser episodes of coronary artery disease” that obviously are not being articulated, probably because “scientists” know very little about it. But, it was always nice for members of a patriarchal society to hear that staring at breasts is healthy. Whatever the links between staring and health are, they’re not really important. Are they?
Ah, I knew I should have googled “Dr. Karen Weatherby, a gerontologist” before I posted this, but I was in a hurry. Good job and thank you. Post updated for 2024 to be just about the birds. Since it’s a hoax post anyway.
What does “male interest in the female body” have to with “staring at boobs”? (Talking about leaps in logic!) Staring is an obession and a mental problem from one perspective or merely rude from another.
If by “male interest in the female body” you mean female beauty, don’t you suppose female beauty is more than fatty protrusions of the mammary glands?
“… men still make more and have the most influence in our society currently, but NONE OF THE MEN I KNOW use attractiveness of women as a means to subjugate them.” (Capitalization added) is not a study, but a personal observation. I can find women who claim that pornography is not exploitative, that they voluntarily, willingly entered the field. I have read about prostitutes who “enjoy” their “occupation.” All this means what? Not much.
If you think that Western countries (some worse than others) are not patriarchal, which means primarily controlled by the male gender, which in turn means male tastes and desire dominate, (where a common slam is something like calling a male, a “girlie man”) … well, I don’t what to say, or perhaps read more … (like history :))
I disagree with you on the opinion that looking at pictures of the female mammary glands is a sin, but I agree that “girlie men” needs to stop being an insult. Of course, relatively few women are willing to date “girlie men”, so there might be a reason it’s an insult.
No, I didn’t say “looking at pictures of the female mammary glands is a sin.” I don’t know too much about “sin.” (maybe I should?)
I said, “staring at boobs … is an obsession and a mental problem from one perspective or merely rude from another.” You know, “staring,” to intently gaze, to google, to gawk, like you can’t get your mind on something else? If this behavior can’t be controlled then it is a problem, and in public this is rude. (If you don’t think it’s rude, try doing it to a woman with attractive breasts who has a husband or boyfriend nearby watching you. Its rudeness might be brought to your attention rather quickly, perhaps.)
I understand, “girlie men” to mean men who in some way are as women. (But, not just women, but young immature women, girls.) Presumably, it is an insult for men to be as women (or girls). Which means what? What does it say about women (or girls)? I haven’t read to many press reports (like governor of Calif.) of women calling men “girlie men.”
Anyway, for a woman to call a man (or think of a man as), a “girlie man,” is like a woman trying to insult a man, because he is as she is, a woman. This is funny, but I’m sure there are women who do this. But, many women also suffer from lower self-esteem, as well. (That is, they think less of themselves than what they should.) This is for any normal healthy person (male or female) a sad statement about our society.

No such study exists, unfortunately.

“unfortunately”? A supporter of our patriarchal society?
Obviously, “no such study exists,” because, like I said, “there’s a huge gap in the study … .” But, I guess no one caught on.

If science says it increases health… so it shall be done!
