Musings from the Mayor of the Internet

In poker, a pair of kings beats a pair of queens

I just ran into this interesting new study that suggests that mating preferences among females are dictated by males. At least in mice, anyhow. But they’re not the only mammilian species I can think of offhand.

My point? Mainly just that I wanted to make fun of the clip’s agonisingly PC ending. Don’t worry, girls — your thoughts and preferences may be dictated to you by the physiology of nearby males, but, you know, probably not. Since if there’s one thing science has taught us throughout the years, it’s that we’re completely independent creatures and not beholden in any way to the instincts and programming inherent in all mammals.

Not at all.

  1. Dude, don’t ever link to CNN videos again without some warning. I hate CNN videos on general principle. RESPECT MY PRINCIPLES.

    Next time I’ll just link to My Humps.
