Title: Why Do Girlies laugh Like A Pork Sausage ?
Post by: neilep on 27/01/2006 18:04:25: well, what I really mean is why do some girlies laugh with a snort ?...is it actually gender specific ? or do some blokeys laugh like that too ?

What is the mechanism of this Swine orientated snorty chortling ?

...and do some Pigs laugh like humans ?

Thanks

In women, repeated excessive stretching of the cord causes lines around the eyes (what we call laugh lines.) Unfortunately these lines all to often turn into permanent wrinkles. Since women with wrinkles are less likely to find a mate, the evolutionary process created a self-regulatory feedback mechanism to cut the laugh short before any damage is done. The snort is merely the sound the cord makes as it snaps back when the laugh is interrupted in mid-flow.

Pigs, believe it or not, are even more prone to wrinkling than women. As a result, their anti-laugh survival mechanism has progressed to the point where the laugh is aborted before it even becomes audible. So when a pig finds something funny all we ever hear is the snort.

Well, those are my thoughts on the matter. And thanks for asking.

Thank You Dr Phil...and good to see you back here.
