We find that men who are more dissatisfied with the size of their penises are less likely to personally own guns across outcomes, including any gun ownership, military-style rifle ownership, and total number of guns owned. The inverse association between penis size dissatisfaction and gun ownership is linear; however, the association is weakest among men ages 60 and older.

Presumably because them small dick motherfuckers spent all their money on giant trucks instead

Tell em that. Let them research that too.

Authoritarians: Don't ask questions you don't want to know the answers to.

Ok, that is funny. However, this little nugget will help me sleep at night:

we failed to observe any differences in personal gun ownership between men who have and have not attempted penis enlargement

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Yeah there’s the rub . . . uh, so to speak. They qualified “men dissatisfied with their penis size” as “men who have tried penis enlargement”

That’s just too much of a reach.

There are both callouts. I just thought that one was kinda cute.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Well at least they have their dignity.

[-] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

What about womens' boob size and gun ownership?

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 days ago

LOL they needed a scientific study for this

[-] Anyolduser@lemmynsfw.com 9 points 3 days ago

Yeah, they did.

Their hypothesis was that men who were dissatisfied with the size of their penises were more likely to own guns. The opposite ended up being the case.

In other words, to solve the gun problem make men feel like they have small dicks.

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago

i didn't read it, but what was the methodology? did they do a survey of dudes who own 50 guns and ask "do you think your penis is big enough?" and did they expect those dudes in particular to be honest?

doubt

[-] Anyolduser@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 2 days ago

Boy, if only there was a way you could get that information. Wouldn't it be convenient if there was a link to the paper's abstract so you wouldn't have to talk out of your ass?

i have to read scholarly crap at work. not doing it on my own time. especially for things i don't give that much of a rat's ass about

[-] Anyolduser@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 days ago

So maybe don't run your mouth if you're unrepentantly uninformed.

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

lol i was asking a question, not making claims.

i'll comment all i feel like, and you'll do nothing. except apparently whine about it

[-] Anyolduser@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 days ago

I didn't know it was possible to say "I'm a jackass" without saying "I'm a jackass". TIL.

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip -1 points 2 days ago

i'm....heartbroken...

brb flooding the neighborhood with a river of tears

LOL

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Self reported data is always suspect. What was their margin of error?

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I'm liberal, have a larger than average dick, and have never worried for a second about its size. Also, have had at least 50+ lovers.

And I own shitloads of guns.
