Study: Female GOP politicians look more feminine
The Washington Times ^ | September 27, 2012 | Stephen Dinan

If a new academic study is to be believed, Republican women politicians look more feminine than their Democratic counterparts. The study, by two UCLA researchers, found that female politicians with what are described as stereotypically feminine features tended to be Republicans, and the reverse was also true for Democratic women. GOP women rated, on average, twice as stereotypically feminine as Democrats. In fact, the authors said the correlation was so strong that undergraduates were regularly able to guess someone's party affiliation just by the way she looked.

Of course GOP women are hotter.

However, saying that Democratic men are more masculine is a bit of a stretch. The researchers obviously didn't take Bawny Fwank into account.

I noticed this years ago. And it is not only they look more feminine - GOP women tend to take care of themselves and care how they look. I also think that the Dems started seeing this several years ago - that is why you have Kirstin “Dumb as a Rock” Powers on the tube and some others. That is why the Dem one with the screeching voice got a face lift.

Yeah, dog collars butched him up. They would do wonders for all the Democrat women. Woof!

The thing about undergraduates being able to tell by the way you look which party you are is interesting. When I was in law school, the conservative guys assumed I was conservative. I was registered Democrat at the time and told them so. They just smiled, like “Isn’t that cute. She doesn’t eve know she’s conservative.”

They were right. But it took me a couple of decades to figure it out.

Who’s that guy? Wasn’t he the Atty General or some sh*t like that? If I remember correctly, he was the guy in charge when there was another COMPLETE and TOTAL F*CK UP by the ATF.

That guy is a moron.

Aside from the celebs, Rats are ugly and/or lesbian-ish. They also have aggressive personalities which is why so many single women vote Rat.

Yes, GOP women are much hotter than Democrat women. But when you restrict the group to politicians, you can have some not very feminine Republicans since most of the Democrats are screaming harpies and dykes.
