What's with Adams" Apples???

[Samai139]

This week, while bored in a medical waiting room, I picked up "US" magazine. A photo of Bruce Jenner caught my eye. When I read the short article it said he had been considering having his prominent Adam's Apple shaved, and said what the surgery was called and in a snide aside mentioned that this kind of surgery was common for those who are changing gender identity.

I don't give a Fiddler's Fig about what Bruce Jenner is doing or not doing, but the photograph prompted me to think about an individual's Adam's Apple. Looking in the mirror, my own is almost non-existent. This lead me to wonder whether there is any correlation/connection between the prominence of a man's Adam's Apple and 1. sexual preference and/or 2. masculinity.

Any knowledge and/or opinions???

I have absolutely no medical or scientific knowledge to give on this topic. The only thing I remember about the topic is that when I was in college, I thought all the guys who sang base, and I mean the ones that could go really low, all seemed to have prominent Adam's Apples...now the problem with your post is that I will probably focus on the necks of the models, escorts and masseurs to see if theirs are prominent !!

Poor Bruce Jenner ... as if he hadn't already been emasculated by being a semi-Kardashian.

And then there's that matter of "Can't Stop the Music", the Village People musical he was in.
