Men are Idiots and Do Stupid Things
A new study shows what at least some of us might have suspected for a long time: Men are idiots and do stupid things.
That's the premise of the authors' Male Idiot Theory. The study, published in BMJ, the former British Medical Journal, looked at past winners of the Darwin Awards. The awards are given to those people who die in such an idiotic manner that "their action ensures the long-term survival of the species, by selectively allowing one less idiot to survive."
The study looked at 318 cases, of which 282, or 88.7 percent, were men.
Limitations of the study, the authors noted, include its retrospective nature, selection bias— women may be more likely to nominate men — and reporting bias — male candidates for the award may be more newsworthy than female candidates.

Hey, who am I to argue with scientific research? 
= new reply since forum marked as read
renting a crane to propose just proved this study's point 
at least 35 years. My boyfriend agrees with this too. He thinks men are idiots over all. At least we can laugh about it
