My Charlie Sheen Story
By now everyone has one or is repeating someone else's Charlie Sheen story. I have my own. The first mate was telling me yesterday how lucky Charlie was to have two ladies. I told her that those girls were far too young and besides if something like that ever happened to me I'd insist that she be one of the ladies.If you give the wrong answer you could wind up in bad trouble the least of which is sleeping alone for a month. So be careful out there. Inspired by the dialog at The Other McCain who I was referred to by an Instapundit link. Stacey suggests this book as an introduction to the mores of twenty-somethings. Generation S.L.U.T.: A Brutal Feel-up Session with Today's Sex-Crazed Adolescent Populace So what can a father do to improve the odds that his daughter doesn't join the ranks of the sluts? This site has a chart which I'm going to repeat below that answers the question.
In words: Make sure your daughter goes into something chemistry or mathematics. The worst is art major. My #1 daughter is a chemical engineering major. Now why would it work like that? You can get a hint here: Demographics. The short version? It depends on the M/F ratio in the classes. Cross Posted at Power and Control posted by Simon on 03.03.11 at 12:50 PM
Comments
While it is amusing and makes a certain amount of intuitive sense, as the comments point out at the link, there is no data other than someone's say-so. Where is the study? And does loss of virginity = slut? Eric Scheie · March 4, 2011 12:32 AM Eric, I thought the study was more indicative rather than definitive. M. Simon · March 4, 2011 2:50 AM Every day, some bright and shiny lie to keep the ladies happy. Why aren't they embarrassed by egoism? Brett · March 4, 2011 8:37 AM So the ladies in Computer Science put out? Not in my experience.. they rank with the math geeks. Huusker · March 4, 2011 1:41 PM The craziest nympho I ever dated was a brilliant math major... (don't mean to brag) Brisa · March 4, 2011 1:51 PM No majors in Comparative Literature, Music, Sociology, Engineering or Physics? The "study" does not pass my smell test, but it generated a new post! :) Eric Scheie · March 4, 2011 2:41 PM Erm - yeah, Huusker. In the old days, we ranked with the math geeks - I'm wondering if anything changed. I doubt it. Like the math geeks, comp-sci rarely put out unless the men were smarter than they were. :P Kathy Kinsley · March 4, 2011 6:17 PM You're confusing causality and correlation. That said, if I was looking to score a college-age woman, it looks to me like the sci/math nerd girls are the ones to chase. grumble · March 5, 2011 1:33 AM Post a comment |

Odd, that. Back when I went to college, computer science would have been right up there with mathematics (demographics-wise). Things seem to have changed.
