What I was trying to get at in my last post was that the number of people who say they aren’t getting any might be accurate to that sample.

People who have time to answer a government survey probably don’t have the most active social lives. I can’t see David Hasselfhoff spending an hour on the phone with a government employee answering personal questions. 😎

This month is crazy for me so I don’t have the time to do a thorough analysis on the research. I’m a bit lost here. What is it that GSS is saying, if anything?

And I too am a bit suspect of anything that had 2/3 of participants reporting celibacy for the past year.

Yeah…. sure. Not.

Maybe one should filter on the age of respondent.

Theoretically speaking the more male babies a mother has, the more chance she might have some sort of autoimmune response to testosterone. Urban environments are loaded with every kind of gunk. Maybe mothers that live in big cities have heightened immune systems and this contributes to the autoimmune effect?

My 2 cent theory
