Hey, free internet idiocy
You want to know why the internet is cool? Because everyone’s a fucking expert. Get a domain, post some flim flam, and you are officially source material for some poor college students thesis paper.
Take this rant on thelastpsychiatrist.com, leading you to believe that a legitimate psychiatrist is informing the general public with his or her BLOG. WRONG. Check out this fabulous piece, which descends into the nether regions of porn viewing, leading into grand yim yammering that concludes that the prevalence of porn and thus masturbation are leading to decreasing birth rates. Well guess what, rookie bi-yatch, the highest correlated variable for declining birth rates is EDUCATION. Specifically female education, and not the kind where there teacher penetrates them with a ruler. If you’re looking for more pontifications on subjects unknown by various anonymous electronic idiots, I suggest America’s Next Top Model Controversy: Glamorizing Violence Against Women? — because nothing says intelligence like charging around, fighting a battle already waged in the 60’s.
If you’re actually looking something interesting / intelligent to read on a blog (I know, it’s possible??), I suggest America Has Become “Politically Radioactive” on Atlantic Review or if you feel like contributing to a lost cause, poke Nancy Pelosi with calls for impeachment.
Not only are you numerically challenged, but your link to the “this fabulous piece” don’t work either,
seems your the, “electronic idiot” your ranting about here……

Hope your not a computer science major either….
Haha, son of a bitch. You shoulda changed your name to “canyoulink??”
Hi. I’m the yim yammering idiot he references, with my link to the porn article here:
http://thelastpsychiatrist.com/2007/04/a_quick_word_on_porns_effect_o.html
And you have completely misunderstood my post. I’m not blaming porn for a declining birthrate; I’m saying the opposite. Porn doesn’t have anything to do with poor relationships, violence, impotence, or a declining birth rate (which was an incidental point anyway.) Porn is the SCAPEGOAT. The problem isn’t porn.
And, for what it’s worth, education isn’t the cause of declining birth rate either. Certainly it is a factor, but I think the real cause of the decline is the desire of men, not women, to have kids– or multiple kids.
last sentence should have been “the real cause is the decline in the desire of men to have kids– multiple kids.” Which is dramatically different.
So I don’t completely blame you for misreading my post. 🙂
Haha, well I’m glad you took my humor in good taste. I mean, I accused you of being an idiot and you didn’t accuse me of being an idiot. Even though I probably am one.
There’s a good article available on the subject that actually proves me wrong: http://www.springerlink.com/content/7557245468015475/
“This paper presents the results of a statistical study, using cross-national data, on the relationships between total fertility rate and women’s level of education and women’s labor participation. Aggregate data on seventy-one countries were collected from numerous sources. Eight variables related to women’s fertility, mortality, economic status, labor participation, and education are analyzed using multivariate linear regression analyses. Two models are considered. The first model regresses five variables on total fertility rate: per capita Cross National Product (GNP), percentage of women ages 15 to 19 who are married, female life expectancy at birth, calories available as a percentage of need, and percentage of married couples using contraception. The second model includes two additional regressors: the average number of years of schooling for women, and the percentage of women in the labor force. These seven variables are regressed on total fertility rate. Although the data are crude, the results of the analyses suggest that the model which incorporates women’s level of education and women’s labor participation captures the data better than the smaller model. The full model suggests that the percentage of women in the labor force is directly related to total fertility rate, whereas the average number of years of education for women is indirectly related to total fertility rate.”
So it’s labor participation & education rather than just education. My bad 🙁
