Porn Use (among men) Linked to Gay Marriage Support

There is a correlation between watching porn and support for gay marriage among men, Dr. Mark Regnerus, associate professor of sociology at University of Texas at Austin, found. Exposure to diverse and graphic sex acts, he believes, may undermine a traditional view of marriage.

Using data from The New Family Structures Study, a project for which he was the principal investigator, Regnerus found statistically significant positive correlation between porn use and support for same-sex marriage among men, even after controlling for other predictors, such as political party, religiosity, marital status, age, education and sexual orientation.

Men who know their porn are convinced that the pretty young neighbor girl (who he has a secret crush on) is not a lesbian but a bisexual and can bring out the bisexual also from the old wife...

I'm sure they'll be incredibly conflicted, yet somehow manage to get in plenty of good slams on men while they're at it.

"Exposure to diverse and graphic sex acts, he believes, may undermine a traditional view of marriage."

UNDERMINE? It's clear where he is coming from. He wants to SUPPORT a "traditional view of marriage." It sounds like he went into this study with a bias, and he confirmed his bias.

Sex is sex, and purely nobody's business other than the consenting adults involved. I little gay porn thrown into the mix, meh, so what. Who cares...at this point, you have no business in my bedroom anyway. STFU,. Dr. RegAnus.

I said "We're all gay, buddy. It's just to what degree are you gay."

And he goes, "That's bullshit, man. I ain't gay at all."

And I go "Yeah, you are. And I can prove it."

He goes "Fine. Prove it."

I go, "All right. Do you like porn?"

He says "Yeah, I love porn. You know that."

I said, "Oh, and do you only watch scenes with two women?"

And he goes, "No, I'll watch a man and a woman makin' love."

And I say "Oh, and do you like the guy to have a flabby, half-flaccid penis?"

And he goes "No, I like big, hard, throbbing cock..." (he trails off)
