(I can't do my usual article-quoting because apparently that website doesn't trust me enough for fair use copy/pasting.)

Now, here's an example of science reporting that, while I agree with its general theme, isn't good science.

Honestly, I'm not even sure where to begin enumerating everything this article is doing wrong.

This doesn't help the Cause, people! We need real science, not vague generalizations, crappy evolutionary psychology, and statements of untested hypotheses.

At least the article isn't all full of puritanical rubbish. I attribute that to it coming from the UK, a place that wisely got rid of its sticks-in-the-mud. Unfortunately, said sticks colonized America and so we're stuck with the result.

And now I want a drink.
