To mention but one example: the piece mentions a poll on the Florida State campus in which some men but no women say they would have casual sex with a stranger (the opposite-sex interviewer), then use this poll to claim that women have a lower sex drive then men. Even a journalist should see the non sequitur there. (Not to mention the cheap talk, as I presume the guys didn't actually have sex with the interviewers.)Jeffreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02542297970051253006noreply@blogger.com
