Lack of control group

Researchers set out to find a sample of men who haven't seen porn, fail:

“We started our research seeking men in their 20s who had never consumed pornography,” said Professor Simon Louis Lajeunesse. “We couldn't find any.”

First, I question the language: "consumed"? It's still there after I've seen it. Thanks, Chris.

When they say "But their project stumbled at the first hurdle when they failed to find a single man who had not been seen it." It makes me wonder how many men they actually interviewed. 20 is a stark change from 1,000.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
