6 funny differences between republicans and democrats

Hillary does it more often, but Trump has better sex

The presidential debate is, well, besides all the flirting between Justin and Selena, the topic of discussion in the United States. This leads to lists of the most bizarre facts and figures including these six differences between Republicans and Democrats that I came across in the Huffington Post.

1. Democrats are cat people

Let me just start off by saying that this has been drawn out of context, because the researchers only focused on States where the  Republicans have the upper hand and states that contained higher Democratic populations. Republicans have more dogs, although you might want to know that a lot of Republican areas cover more land, thus making it appealing to have dogs. New York mostly consists of Democrats and in populous city it just so happens to be easier to take care of a cat. But still, fun little fact to share at the dinner table.

2. Democrats have better sex

This is based on research from the University of Binghamton who studied 5000 Republican and Democratic singles. Democrats have more sex, but Republicans are ‘better’. 53% of the Republicans all had orgasms opposed to the 40% of Democrats. The researchers even had an explanation for this. Republicans are more conservative therefore once they know how something works, they’ll stick to it. Same can be applied to their sex lives.

3. Chocolate vs vanilla ice cream

Republicans love chocolate ice cream whereas Democrats like vanilla. No idea why, but apparently this is the case. Democrats prefer buying Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, which makes sense because the company has plenty of connections to the Democratic party.

4. Republicans drink Budweiser

Let me start this one off by letting you know that both parties prefer wine over beer. But if a gun was held to their head and they had to pick, Democrats would go for a hip bottle of Corona and Republicans would opt for Budweiser. Traditional, American. Oh man, those Trumps are so easy to analyze.

5. Democrats love Beyoncé

Whether it has more to do with her music, expressing her political preference (team Obama) or because she dropped by the White House for an Easter egg hunt, we’re not quite sure, but 63% of all Democrats love Beyoncé compared to a miserable 35% on team Republican.

6. Republicans sleep better

They sleep more deeply, are less likely to have bad dreams and have a harder time recalling what they dreamt about. Could it be that Democrats have bigger hearts for the world and are more engaged in what happens around them? Or am I being too biased?

So is there nothing, nothing at all that binds them?

There sure is: Justin Bieber. Both parties can’t stand the kid.
