Ik, grip strength?!?! What even calls for a survey for that?

Technically, but it doesn't work in the way reddit thinks it does. Redditors basically apply it like this:
>[Confronted with statistics about single mothers and juvenile delinquency]
>MUH CORRELATION! MUH CAUSATION!
While it isn't true that mere correlation can be coincidence, the entirety of the scientific corpus relies on distilling causation from correlation. Generally by repeating the same experiments over and over again and changing various variables to see how they effect the correlation.
It's the same as shouting "muh appeal to authority!". An appeal to authority can be valid, if the authority is legitimate. Again, if you contest this then you need to burn the entire corpus as it is full of footnotes referring to sources that are trusted based on their authority and reputation.
Same with the slippery slope: it CAN be valid reasoning, under the right circumstances. If I said "giving women the vote is the first step on the slippery slope towards SOCIALISM!" and I can back this up by showing that in vairous Western countries the welfare state exploded after giving women suffrage, then this is entirely valid reasoning.
Ironically enough, what you're doing her is also a fallacy. The fallacy fallacy.

Grip strength is inversely correlated with mortality, so it's an easy way to measure health.
Henry Price
Because grip strength is generally a good predictor of overall strength.
Still, I'm surprised Swedish "men" are that high.
Julian Diaz
I think the weak Nord is a meme. Most blondes I've seen are tall and strong like Chad. Sweden cuckoldry is likely due to high jewish population.
Grayson Peterson
Why are swedish men so strong compared to the rest of the world???

but the welfare state exploded for specific and documented reasons that have nothing to do with giving women suffrage
also the welfare state in most western countries has been gradually dismantled since the 80's so women's suffrage hasn't lead to SOCIALISM at all
Lucas Harris
Must be because the weak ones all identify as women.

Of course not.

The welfare state existed in some countries before the introduction of female suffrage and was absent in others. However, all the states that didn't have a welfare state before female suffrage ended up with one after it, and all the states that had a welfare state before female suffrage had a significantly expanded one after female suffrage.
It's perhaps not the condicio sine qua non, but women's natural tendency towards the left (as dictated by hypergamy) is undeniably a contributing factor to the fact that there currently isn't a single Western government that isn't heavily in debt. If the country's total state debt is "only" 60% of its GDP, that's considered a "balanced" budget nowadays.

As opposed to? Who else votes for increasingly more spending despite the budget already being stretched further than it should logically go? The Jews? The templars? Was it aliens? Or is it a group of people who are objectively less productive than men, have a biological instinct to suck up to whoever can provide them with the most resources and vote based on emotion rather than logic?
This shit is why the West will never uncuck itself. It condemns the tree while praising its roots.

You guys are ground zero for illegal immigration in Europe, it's not racist to want to change that.
