You may or may not have heard the news about this recent study some social scientists in Chicago discovered.
An AP story being run is labeling this as "groundbreaking" research. The study links graphic graphic (sexually) television shows to teen pregnancy. It points at shows that talk about sex or show sex, I think they name "Sex and the City."
First of all, is this really that groundbreaking? I mean, really, did this surprise someone?
I totally think these shows are trash and I can believe there is some significance, but not that much. It doesn't take into account the fact that the teens likely to watch this show are the ones already more likely to get pregnant IRREGARDLESS of what shows they are watching.
I guess the point is, why can't people get a hold of their children without blaming someone else? Or the point could be, why is someone using money to conduct studies on crap like this when it serves zero purpose? Or why the hell is someone getting paid to write an article on it?
Good grief.
