Live R Perfect Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 http://www.macon.com/mld/macon/entertainment/10215832.htm New Scientist magazine reported in October that psychologists seem to be reclassifying people who are uninterested in sex, from the old notion that such behavior was a disorder to the emerging position that it is merely a sexual preference of "none of the above." Recent research estimated that 1 percent of the population is asexual, and in previous research, 40 percent of asexuals described themselves as "extremely" or "very" happy.

Live R Perfect Posted November 20, 2004 Author Share Posted November 20, 2004 Also at: http://www.sltrib.com/nationworld/ci_2464254 Weird science: New Scientist magazine reported in October that psychologists seem to be reclassifying people who are permanently uninterested in sex, from the old notion that such behavior was a disorder to the emerging position that it is merely a sexual preference of ''none of the above.'' (Asexuals profess no sexual attraction at all, encompassing loners reluctant to associate with people and gregarious, caring people whose natural inclination is to relate to others nonsexually.)

New Scientist magazine reported in October that psychologists seem to be reclassifying people who are permanently uninterested in sex, from the old notion that such behavior was a disorder to the emerging position that it is merely a sexual preference of “none of the above.” (Asexuals profess no sexual attraction at all, encompassing loners reluctant to associate with people and gregarious, caring people whose natural inclination is to relate to others nonsexually.) Recent research estimated that 1 percent of the population is asexual, and in previous research, 40 percent of asexuals described themselves as “extremely” or “very” happy. An asexuality support group (AVEN) touts its best-selling T-shirt, “Asexuality: It's not just for amoebas anymore.” Actually, thats EXACTLY the same article! 2013 Mod Edit: Archived page can be found here.

Silly Green Monkey Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Plagiarism rampant... Link to post Share on other sites
Borrible Cal Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 It's not plagiarism. Newspapers all over the world have share snippets of text and some full stories with other newspapers owned by the same people, because it's easier and cheaper than keeping their own correspondents everywhere; this could be an example of that. Also, freelance journalists can sell stories to many sources if they choose and aren't prevented by contractual obligations. Borrible Cal. Link to post Share on other sites
