Major Gay Marriage Study Was Fabricated Author Admits The Daily Caller

A study purporting to show that people’s views on gay marriage could change simply by meeting gay people has been retracted following revelations that its data was fabricated.

The study was published last December in Science, and prior to publication drew a great deal of attention from the American media. Vox, for instance, described the findings in the study as “kind of miraculous.” As it turns out, that’s exactly what they were, because they were apparently made up.


The study began to fall apart when students at the University of California at Berkeley sought to conduct additional research building off of it, only to find major irregularities in how its research was apparently conducted. For example, thermometers used to measure participants’ attitudes produced consistent, reliable information, even though they are known for producing relatively unreliable numbers.

I had never heard of this study before- but hey- I am glad the truth has come out.

Here is a substantive article on the whole debacle- where the members of the 'left' go to great lengths to explain why it was important to retract this study because it was wrong

Walk around in your daily life and count the number of gay people you run into. It's probably close to zero and that is the number of people driving this gay agenda bullshit.

Uh frankly, I know at least three gay people I've worked with at my current employer. And those are the ones I know about.

So they have this whacky agenda to be treated like everyone else?

Alright, listen...this may help.

It doesn't matter whether being gay is genetic or a choice.

It doesn't matter if God says it's a sin, or okay.

What does matter is more than half of the people, when polled, say it's okay.

It's only a matter of time before gay marriage bans are unconstitutional.

Resisting it is as futile as resisting a woman's right to vote, and resisting interracial marriage.

You have a right to your opinion, and I'll fight for your right to express it, but it's becoming obsolete right now.

Ya know, the case on behalf of gay marriage has been made based on only one study.

Of course!

So, a graduate student lied about what he did, other social scientists tried to replicate the study because they found it striking and very interesting, they had trouble doing so so they investigated, found issues, and the professor who worked with the grad student agreed to retract the original paper. Exactly how does this support the "left" lying? The same set of institutions found that there was a problem here by critically examining the study in question.

It was a "fake but accurate" study.

Exactly.

And this is a shining example of someone who is against homosexuality exhibiting one or more of the ONLY 3 reasons anyone opposes gay marriage.

They are:

1. God says it's wrong
2. Picturing men kissing makes them feel icky
3. They oppose it because their side opposes it (the GOP)

In this case, it's a 3

You can watch all the gay porn on pornhub for free. Have fun. Watch the news for stories on the homo sex stars and maybe in the next 10 or 20 years their stories and polls may change.

But that would require an explanation which then makes the stupid button moot.

Homosexuality isn't 'perversion,' but your unwarranted hatred of gay Americans is.

Yeah. Trying to figure out how this is news. One study being fake, doesn't makes other legitimate ones fake.

It would be like declaring all oranges are pink, because a study on human color perceptions was faked.

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

Homosexuality isn't 'perversion,' but your unwarranted hatred of gay Americans is.

No, it is literally a perversion. Like, misapplication. Like, that's not where the penis goes kinda thing. Doesn't make you a bad person.
