Scrub My Floors - BitchA new study out of Britain suggests that girls who are read fairy tales are more likely to be in violent relationships:
And kids who played with G.I. Joe action figures will grow up to be in the Army right? Go Joe! Just because someone who identifies with the characters in the stories, it doesn't mean that the stories caused them to be in abusive relationships. I'm sure there are millions of kids who did read those stories who aren't abused. Just because they identify with it... doesn't mean it is the cause. These sorts of studies drive me nuts.
