Bobby Brady Is Probably Gay
In case you ever get into a weird side bet with your buddies, here are the odds for each Brady brother being gay: Greg – 0%, Peter – 33%, Bobby – 66%. In case you were wondering where I managed to give such solid odds on such a weird topic, let me lazily explain with the use of a blockquote from SPIN.com
Men with older brothers are more likely to be gay than those without, according to a new study published in the journal of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The finding is not based on social factors, but on the as-yet undetermined biological events that happen in the mother’s womb when she gives birth to boys. According to Canadian psychologist and lead researcher Anthony Bogaert, who analyzed over 900 men and their fraternal siblings, each older brother increases the chances that a younger male sibling is gay by 33 percent. Bogaert has estimated in a previous study that approximately one in seven gay men can attribute their homosexuality to the birth order of brothers.
In my family I’m the oldest of three boys. So after applying some Canadian math, I’m not gay even though I love Project Runway and America’s Next Top Model (Yes, I’m sure!), my little brother Matt snaked through his 33 percent chance and landed himself a woman, but basically my brother Tim aka “lil’ J” is, in so many words, wasting his time with any girl he hangs out with. 66% is a pretty high number bro.
Ok, I know what you are thinking. Some Candaian researcher huh? I know Canada. Take it with a grain of salt. That being said, there is also a little known scientific law that states one can arbitrarily use a crack-pot theory for the use of humor. This crack-pot theory was made for that little known secietific fact. Seriously. I just made that law up for this fact. Yes. I can do that.
So if you are gay and have an older brother or two you can either be mad at your parents for not having the forsight or restraint, or you can blame Canada. Either way, you’ll look fablous doing it!
