Putting aside the fact that the Mail is a right wing rag off staggeringly neo-fascist proportions, my question is, so what? I'm a big bloke and pretty strong as it happens, but my masculinity doesn't depend on it. More on a mature approach to the needs of my family and fellow citizens.

I'm not being defensive. Politically I'm in more or less the same as you. I'm not a tree-hugging hippy or a macho-man and my position is indeed centralist.

I'm only pointing out the hilarity of the British Daily Mail flexing their muscles while at the same time not being able to find their own macho man to parade from their own withered and crusty Conservative Party.

Cage Match!

First card: Vladimir Putin -vs- Stephen Colbert

Second card: Bill O'Reilly -vs- Rachel Maddow

Main Event: Rand Paul -vs- Barack Obama.

I'm going with Putin, Maddow and Paul. Any takers?
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Yep, prime physical specimens these right wingers

Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

I was going to say that the study says it doesn't work for women, but I think the jury is still out on Rachel Maddow.

In any case, I think O'Reilly vs. Chris Hayes might be better.

If Obama throws a punch like he throws a baseball, he is in definite trouble.

I love the way the show 'Arnnie' as their epitome of a "right-leaning" man but then show Ed Milliband for the left.

Why didn't they show one of their own, British right-leaning men like David Cameron?

Lols within lols.
Well, the study doesn't say all right-leaning men are physically strong, it says that physically strong men tend to be right leaning. And, physically weak men tend to be left leaning, not that all left leaning men are physically weak.

it seems to work for Hollywood Actors, too. http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread832621/pg1 -
I was going to reply with a joke about them leaning to the right due to being lop-sided from so much wanking, but then I saw that you actually referenced "abovetopsecret" as a source.
No further jokes or piss-taking required.

I'm not sure the defensiveness of all this attacking of sources is really needed here. This is pretty much a humor thread, as the study is almost certainly methodologically unsound, LOL. But, if you want to take it so seriously, feel free. Pussy. :{D
