Dave, you're almost there buddy. Now who do you think find this important? The next question is...why?

It is of ZERO consequence, you ignoramus
It has zero to do with the running of government and the things government is actually supposed to do (defense, etc)... it has ZERO business being funded by government.. you want to fund it by a grant given by some alumni at whatever university, so be it.. knock yourself out...

Just pretend to be curious and maybe it has something to do with the function of govt. Maybe.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded $1.5 million to study biological and social factors for why three-quarters of lesbians are obese and why gay males are not, calling it an issue of high public-health significance."

And we close the WH to tours???
Some of the toughest sequester spending decisions involve taxpayer-financed research, where funding today can produce huge benefits tomorrow
but can the government really afford to spend $227,437 to study pictures of animals in National Geographic magazines?
That is one of the 164 grants the National Science Foundation approved last week as it sought to balance its research mission with less funding that means the independent agency will award about 1,000 fewer projects with taxpayer money this year.

Uhhuh.. yeah... it is critically needed to run government.. especially when we are a tril in deficit and 17 tril in debt
You are fucking laughable
I can't find any source for this besides right-wing propaganda rags.
Is there a credible source for this out there?
All I see is the same story from "CNS News" repeated over and over on various right-wing sites, with no links to the source material.
Research Overview
S. Bryn Austin's primary research is in the behavioral sciences and social epidemiology, addressing social and physical environmental influences on physical activity, nutritional patterns, and eating disorders risk in school and community settings. In addition, her research interests include lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender adolescent health.
The principal goals of her research are to:
Identify the critical factors in the social and physical school and community environments affecting adolescent nutrition, physical activity and eating disorders.
Design and evaluate school- and community-based preventive interventions to reduce risk of disordered weight control behaviors.
Examine sexual orientation group disparities in health in adolescence and identify determinants with the goal of eliminating these disparities.

Ok, so you just want to be mad. Got it! Carry on
"Maybe" is not a good enough reason to run $1T deficits and to borrow 30%+ of every dollar the government spends.

Berlan and Austin hope to conduct a more detailed follow-up study to better understand how bullying affects health outcomes. "We know that, in general, sexual minorities are more likely to smoke, drink, use drugs and have eating disorders and depression," says Austin. "We suspect that social isolation, harassment, bullying and sometimes frank violence against these adolescents may be an explanation."

No.. I want the government to be fiscally responsible and only spending on the things it is SUPPOSED to spend on.. unlike you and your fucking progressive ilk

Either you are a productive person with such a low sense of self-worth that you do not care that the government spends a portion of your life on utterly worthless crap...or you are a parasite.
In either case, you are an idiot.
I'll agree that studies like this do not need to be funded by the government and Congress could have addressed things like this...if the sequester hadn't gone into effect which targets specific programs and gives zero latitude to addressing actual waste.
Did you type that with a straight face?
Because there ain't no way on this planet that this Administration is gonna voluntarily not spend money on bullshit.
For the record, I am undecided as to the value of the research under discussion - because I don't know what the study forms part of... more often than not, they are part of a larger - and quite valuable - research project and without these smaller, more controversial, studies... the value of that overall research is diminished.
But - unlike many (left and right), I actually understand research.

Seriously, the research could have some relevancy to societal norms and individual behavior to comply, but the whole topic is wonderfully absurd.

You should research this Administration's spending then...

You and I have completely different standards when it comes to defining the word 'research'. Mine is academic, yours appears to be google.
