Study Links Homosexuality to Eating Grits May 05, 2014 Scientists at Stanford University released a study today showing that men who regularly eat grits are 70 percent more likely to have gay children. The prospective cohort study, published in Nature Medicine, followed 15,000 volunteers for 30 years to determine the influence of parental diet on the development of childhood illnesses. Although the study did find some connection between the maternal intake of sugar during pregnancy and childhood obesity, the most surprising finding was that fathers who ate grits had a much greater chance of having a gay child. “We were shocked when we ran the data,” says Edmund Bergler, the lead researcher on the project. "But we controlled for every variable. We triple-checked every calculation. And it turned out that eating grits makes your kids gay.” http://dailycurrant.com/2014/05/05/study-links-homosexuality-to-eating-grits/
@Red55... It turns out that sweet tea, chicken fried steak and buttermilk biscuits have high levels of Homotonin as well.
Many will read this & never eat grits again. Especially if it's forwarded to them in the form of an email......then it's really fact.
I do not understand the principal behind this endless growth of internet satire. It seems like every day is April fools or just... groundhog day on April 1st. I can understand a couple of folks here and there having absolutely nothing better to do but there are entire publications dedicated to the imagination for another truth. These people need to try getting out and enjoying actual humans. A room without windows can be a dangerous place.
My paternal grandfather is the world's worst. You should see some of the crazy fucking emails that he forwards & takes them as fact. Years ago, I got tired of replying to all (he has no clue what Bcc is) and debunking his bat shit crazy emails. Now, I just let the ol codger go to town. One of them said something to the effect of this: if you leave your keys in some far off place, no worries, you can still have someone call you and click the keyless entry through the cell phone and your doors will unlock through the cell phone. smh
What percentage of men regularly eat grits? I'm guessing about 5%, which would make the 15,000 sample size much smaller (only 750) and the 70% "correlation" much more likely due to sample size variations. My mom used to try and feed me grits as a kid but I always hated them. The only grits I've had as an adult were as part of a "Shrimp & Grits" entree, which are usually pretty good.
