Milwaukee's late-afternoon host tends to obsess over his "analytical" abilities.
Well, now, there's a study out there...
...Researcher Dr Lorenza Colzato, of Leiden University in the Netherlands, said: 'This is the first time that scientific proof has been found for the existence of a gaydar mechanism amongst homosexuals.
‘This perceptual skill allows homosexuals to recognise other gay people faster and we think it's because they are much more analytic than heterosexuals.'
Interesting study. I happen to disagree that 'because A, then B'; it's likely that analytical abilities result from training and experience. In fact, for the fun of it, I'd argue that analytical abilities co-exist with sensitive people of ALL persuasions and are merely enhanced by experience and training.
But it's interesting.
