Gay Men Penis Size Study Funded By Taxpayer Dollars
Regardless of what some economic experts may say, we are not out of the clear when it comes to the “great recession” and therefore we shouldn’t be spending money on ridiculous studies, such as the National Institutes of Health survey which attempted to tie the size of gay men’s penises with their preferences to be a “top” or “bottom.”
The study, funded in part with taxpayer money was meant to “tie the size of a gay man’s penis” with their choice in being a “bottom” or a “top” and found that men with bigger penis sizes tend to be the “top” in the relationship, while men with smaller penises often gravitate towards the “bottom” role in the relationship. Researchers also claim that gay men with smaller penises tend to be more psychologically troubled then men with larger penises.
The National Development and Research Institute received money from the NIH to conduct the study which began in 2006. Money from the program has been provided since 1985 and is often used for “behavioral science research on drug abuse, AIDS, and crime,” which the group claimed their study fit into.
According to the President of the Traditional Values Coalition:
”We’ve got nameless, faceless bureaucrats who thought this was a good use of taxpayer money,” while adding, ”[They] seem to think the American taxpayers are a limitless ATM machine.”
At the start of this post I said we shouldn’t be spending money on ridiculous studies because of bad economic times, I should have said that even in great economic times this type of overspending on mundane studies with tax dollars is ridiculous.

I am willing to bet which side of the aisle was most interested in this sort of data.

Give me a break, this kind of stuff makes it even harder to be a taxpayer.
Jul 20, 2011
easy cut them off.
Jul 21, 2011
This is the small amount of crap that is found out about, and our president wants to raise taxes? When will this madness stop?
Jul 21, 2011
All goverment studies should be ended! The majority of them are just wasting tax money and sending us furter in debt. Remember the one for millions on studying cow farts? Most gov spending is a waste and a deception! RR
Jul 21, 2011
yep
Jul 21, 2011
I say alot of this is a publicity stunt. I don't believe most of it at all. Just crap to get certain people all rialed up.

Almost a million dollars spent of US taxpayers money on this..outrageous..right!
Jul 22, 2011
A Traditional Values Coalition release stated that at least $9.4 million went to a 10-year study that included the penis-size research — but Parsons said it appears that references a much broader "post-doctoral training program" of which the penis-study funding was a "small" part.

Snopes.com says this is not true Lee Leibold!

4 TRILLION in Iraq and Afghanistan and we're supposed to be concerned about this. A half trillion every year on a gargantuan 'industry' that Eisenhower warned us about and we're supposed to be concerned about this. A trillion given to the likes of Goldman-Sachs, AIG, Citibank etc, etc and we're supposed to get all in a bunch about this. Watch the birdie folks, pay no attention to the man in the silk suit behind the curtain…Barnham was right.

David,I didn't mean to post that on facebook,but I am glad you commented….I was horrified…about the taxes
Jul 24, 2011
THIS IS NOT TRUE. Check Snopes- and handful of other resources. Just because it is on the internet- and in writing, People, does NOT make it true. Lets get fired up about something REAL- like the economy- healthcare- civil rights… There are plenty of real things to get upset about. Focus!
Jul 24, 2011
Actually it is, it was part of a much larger post-doctoral training program. However it was a focused part of that study and even the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) admitted that it was part of the funded training grant. Enough so that studies were conducted. Just because it says so on Snopes does not mean it's false. Yes Snopes debunks a lot, but people also shoot off at their mouth there too without all the facts and NIDA has said the study occurred within the federally supported post-doctoral study. The debunked part was that 9.4 million dollars was spent on just that part of the study, but notice that was never stated in this article.

I'd recommend reading the entire article from the original source: –> http://dailycaller.com/2011/07/18/feds-pay-for-study-of-gay-men%E2%80%99s-penis-sizes/ Also, we have funded even more ridiculous studies. Just sayin' but honestly, I found the original article to be interesting.
Jul 25, 2011
There is nothing in this world I wanted to know more than how a man's junk size led to their being a top or a bottom. How about for straight guys? If he has a small member, will he be a bottom to a woman? Most likely. That'll cost ya $5. hehe
Jul 29, 2011
yep it's true. truth is hard to take. but when you go to work, if you work, then know Obama is trying to save All kinds of useless studies
