RUSH: Here\u2019s a story from Psychology Today<\/a>. The headline pretty much says it all, but a few more details. ‘Queer IQ: the Gay Couple\u2019s Advantage.\u2019 The subhead: ‘Gay relationships are less mired in deception than hetero relationships, perhaps even less prone to friction, according to multiple studies.\u2019 I\u2019m telling you just what it says here. It\u2019s Psychology Today. No, it\u2019s a crock of fudge, is what it is. Anyway, it says here, ‘Most lesbians don\u2019t fear rapacious women and gay men need not always soft-peddle their sexual predilections. On balance, gays and lesbians understand their partners\u2019 bodies and biases with a certainty that many a clueless ‘breeder\u2019 yearns for.\u2019 Can I read this to you again? Want to hear this again? <\/p>\n

Be careful, Rachel, because they\u2019re going to make your kid in school read this and you\u2019re going to have to go read with her or her grade will suffer. That\u2019s what they\u2019re doing with Algore\u2019s movie. Why not this stuff? Grab the Gay Community Update Theme Song. I forget it. We haven\u2019t had one of these in so long it slipped my mind. See if you can find it real quick here, Mike, before I go any further. If you find it just stick it in there and play it, I\u2019ll be able to hear it and know that you\u2019ve started it, because this is big news here, I gotta do a Gay Community Update on this, and it\u2019s been so long since we have heard Klaus Nomi. Have you heard our gay community update theme? Oh, Rachel. Rachel, Rachel, Rachel! See? You spend too much time watching Gore\u2019s movie. Here we go. Klaus Nomi, and our official gay community update theme. This, by the way, again from Psychology Today. <\/p>\n

(<\/a>Playing of ‘You Don\u2019t Own Me,\u2019 the Gay Community Update Theme.) <\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, man! What a thrill it is to be able to dig this song out of the archives, ladies and gentlemen. Klaus Nomi, the great Klaus Nomi who\u2019s also the late great Klaus Nomi. If you\u2019re wondering what this guy looks like, all I can tell you is that when I listened to this for the first time and I imagined the looks of the guy singing it, and then I saw a photo of Klaus Nomi, I was right on the money, and you probably are too. We\u2019ll have a picture at RushLimbaugh.com where you can buy his CDs<\/a>, by the way, at the end of our day today when we update the website to reflect the contents of today\u2019s program. We\u2019re building up here to the big climax! <\/p>\n

(song continues) <\/p>\n

RUSH: If you\u2019re driving, you might want to pull over at this point. <\/p>\n

(song continues) <\/p>\n

RUSH: (applauding) Klaus Nomi, and you don\u2019t Nomi! That\u2019s a takeoff on Lesley Gore and ‘You Don\u2019t Own Me.\u2019 All right, here\u2019s the news again. This is from Psychology Today, and I\u2019m just going to read the headline: ‘Queer IQ: the Gay Couple\u2019s Advantage — Gay relationships are less mired in deception and perhaps even less prone to friction, according to multiple studies. There will always be a battle between the sexes because men and women want different things,\u2019 quipped comedian George Burns. ‘Men want women and women want men.\u2019 But when men want men and women want women, each couple can circumvent treacherous romantic terrain because partners more closely share sexual appetites and mind-reading abilities than do heterosexual pairs.\u2019 Mind reading abilities? See, here we go. ‘Most lesbians don\u2019t fear rapacious women and gay men need not always soft-peddle their sexual predilections. On balance, gays and lesbians understand their partners\u2019 bodies and biases with a certainty that many a clueless ‘breeder\u2019 [heterosexual] yearns for. ‘Homosexuality could be viewed in some respects as the triumph of the individual\u2019s mating intelligence over the gonads\u2019 evolutionary interests,” says the article. I\u2019m just telling you what\u2019s out there, folks, Psychology Today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
