A recent poll of professional scientists and American citizens given by the California Institute of Technology shows that there is a large gap between what scientists and the general public think people should be fucking. “The results are fascinating, but not entirely surprising, as scholars have known for years that scientists and everyday Americans simply have divergent views about what should and shouldn’t be fucked,” said Professor of Statistics and Probability James Patterson, adding that 96 percent of Americans think some quantity of romantic partners should be party to sexual activity, whereas only 25 percent of scientists agree.
