University Fails to Find Man Who Hasn't Seen Porn

Scientists at the University of Montreal would love to compare the views of men in their 20s who had never been exposed to pornography with regular porn watchers. The problem is, they can't find a man in that age category who has never seen it. “We started our research seeking men in their 20s who had never consumed pornography,” said Professor Simon Louis Lajeunesse. “We couldn't find any.”

    We refer to them as "blind from birth".

    "Prof Lajeunesse interviewed 20 heterosexual male university students..." Really now, even if this was idle, I don't see how the results of an interview with 20 students could be called a study. I'm really kind of surprised anyone would even submit this.

    Maybe they should head to Universities such as Brigham Young or more traditional christian schools

    Porn consumption is higher (PDF) in the more religious states.

    It's not like they looked very hard. According to TFA they only interviewed 20 heterosexual men from the university, then evidently gave up figuring that 20 people was a good representative sample of ...... the first 20 people who responded to their survey, I suppose.
