Investigating the obvious. These studies are ridiculous.

I'm living proof, as are many other guys, that a good-looking woman with a brain can have some people making some dumb decisions. Really dumb. And it's been that way since time began, I'm afraid.

But to research it seems like saying that booze can cause people to behave irrationally, or getting hit in a bar by a stranger's fist can trigger an aggressive streak in males.

A little bit like a study which says that a man in a two-seat vehicle capable of 0-60 in 4.8 seconds might be tempted to travel over the speed limit a bit more than the guy on a Vespa.

I suppose they get paid for it, though. So who's stupid?
