Since the 1990s,
Patria’s hard-right law-and-order National Union has been pandering to
old-school tough-as-nails unreconstructed macho men with slogans such as “testosterone
in your balls, National Union on your ballot” and “separating the real men from
the pussycats”. The hoary old stereotype is of wimpy, effeminate men being bleeding-heart
soft-on-crime liberals or Marxist-Leninist leftists. Come to find out,
injections of testosterone could actually turn leftist men, who vote Democrat
in the US
(and, say, Chakra or Social Democrat in Patria), into right-wingers who would
vote Republican (and become National Unionists or at least SRMers in Patria). Prof. Paul Zak, Director of the Center for Neuroeconomics
Studies at Claremont Graduate University, recently helped produce an extremely
interesting study for the second chapter of a doctoral thesis that showed as
much. “Before the testosterone treatment, we found that weakly-affiliated
Democrats had 19% higher basal testosterone than those who identified strongly
with the party,” the study reported. In other words, the more strongly Democrat
a man is, the lower his testosterone is. Read

Naturally the far-right, white nationalist,

had a field day with this study.
