2. Science requires data.
Interesting article. There are several quotes, but the one I found most interesting was #7 by the Los Angeles Times.

6. Correlation is not causation.
This study says "the more porn heterosexual men watch – the more it opens up their mind to be increasingly accepting of “non-traditional sexual situations”." This assumes that watching the porn is CAUSING the change in attitude. The original study was not an experiment, but just a correlational study. It cannot be shown from that data which is causing what: the porn could be changing their minds, the liberal mindset on this issue might change their feelings about porn, or some third factor might be influencing both.
