Effects of pornography study axed because... scientists couldn't find men who'd never seen porn

Of course The Sun had a more concise way of framing the headline...

Porn-loving men ruin sex study

A PORNOGRAPHY study had to be axed because scientists had a hard time finding men who had not been exposed to X-rated material.

Boffins had planned to recruit two groups of men in their twenties — comparing regular porn users with blokes who had never viewed explicit films.

But researchers were stunned when they could not find ANY fellas who had not watched the hardcore movies.

Professor Simon Louis Lajeunesse, from the University of Montreal, Canada, said: "The objective of my work is to observe the impact of pornography on the sexuality of men, and how it shapes their perception of men and women.

"We started our research seeking men in their twenties who had never consumed pornography but we couldn't find any."

The scientist was eventually forced to change to studying the habits of young men who did use porn.

It was found single young men viewed porn for 40 minutes three times a week, compared with those in committed relationships who watch it 1.7 times a week for 20 minutes.

1. Key words, "young men - 40 minutes a week"

These days I've got it down to 12 minutes...and that's at 7 times a week.

*badabumpski!*

2. 40 min per session or 40 min total?

Cause sometimes those movies are really long and you kinda want to know how they end.

3. There are many men who have never seen porn.

They're called "fucking liars."

4. They could surely find men who have been blind since birth. They've never seen porn-

or anything else-

5. Come on

Porn is the new air. Try finding someone who hasn't been exposed to that, and you might actually have better luck.

7. What is this "porn" of which you speak?

9. There's this theory...

that seeing a female in a state of undressedness provokes a certain reaction in the male of the species.

Personally, I think it's all poppycock.

10. Wait...so nudity is porn?

Puritan.

[Dr. Strange]

11. Well...

so nudity is porn?

Yeah, if you do it right.

[flvegan]

12. And how is poppycock legal?

Do NOT make a smoking poppycock response, either.

I'm watching you.
