Actually, interpret this either way I suppose according to the study and its rebut.

Reminds me of a Tonight Show Headlines classic:

"Study confirms that men and women are different"

One thing for sure, the right sure does understand this at campaign time.  Sort of like Bush clearing brush in Texas.  Deep thoughts about simple people wins a lot of elections for the right.

except that they also misinterpreted their own results.  Repeating the same behavior and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity, not stupidity.  I'm not sure which is worse, rigging a study or not having enough sense to interpret the results of your own rigged study.  Probably the former, I suppose.  Whoever decided to call them "social sciences" anyway?  That's an insult to the real sciences.

Yes but did the study heel to any other studies and is it full of AIDS?

I couldn't actually see the study in question as it would not open, but one time a girl called me 'such a girl' because I was being picky about which underwear to wear with which pants!  I think she thought I was concerned about the pattern or colour of the boxers, but in reality it was the size - I  have some that are the 'snug' kind of boxer and some that are the extremely roomy kind.. so if one wears tight pants they get all bunched up.. so to me, the pants and the boxers must match in a size sense.  But anyway she was convinced I was matching the colours.. pretty funny.

A relevant tale.  But it isn't exactly clear who's being more stubborn and (with respect to the rigged, inappropriately analyzed study) more stupid.  Her, for her continuing assumption that your choice in underwear would be affected by her preconceived criterion, or you, for continuing your search for that perfect pair of even to the point of being called girly.  I suspect both of you are a little stupid.

Well, they are human, so that's a no-brainer really.
