Confirmation or "Well, duh!"

I love articles which refer to "the simpler male brain".
 
oh, those guys. A perfect example of voodoo science from start to finish. And the voodoo is so well documented, too! See, when you show up in the front yard of an educated and self-aware population, your field work had better be immaculate. And Ogas/Gaddam were sloppy.

Not only did they formulate their theory and then set out to prove it-- but they... Oh hell, read for yourselves.

Remember, my friends, women do NOT need LURVE in their porn. They do prefer context-- (but you can't even count on that because sometimes the context is invisible). The context can be almost any emotion or need or goal,small or large. It does NOT always have to be love.
 
See? That's why I always run stuff like that past Lit. Thanx, sweetie.

I really liked "Why Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam Are Phrenologists" :D

True, true. If the author(s) of an article can't get some basic facts straight, one wonders as to the veracity of their other statements and/or conclusions. :rolleyes:

Their original fuckups make me less willing to forgive them other lesser fuckups.
