I loved fairy tales growing up; still do. Also, I like violent video games.
So: am I more likely to be a submissive abused wife or to go on a killing spree?
Ooo! Maybe I'll do both.
There was a discussion on LJ Anthropology about this where they pointed out the logical problem; that is, just because I see a correlation doesn't mean it's cause and effect. There was lots of other good discussion. Still, much as I loved the discussion, the researcher is still bugging me. I mean, seriously. Although I admit to being slightly amused that someone is saying reading is bad and TV is good.
