Looking for info to disprove this stigma, I don’t really have much other than one academic research paper I found but I don’t think if the guy I’m arguing with would be willing to sit through and read that. He dismissed it as queer theory which he says has been “debunked” idk what the hell queer theory is. Anyway from what I can tell with this dude the simple and more obvious the better but it must also be backed by peer reviewed research

    Fortunately that stat is bullshit, it originated in a small study, in some Scandinavian country I think, where there was a follow-up phone call afterwards and 41% of the participants didn’t pick up. I believe it was specifically 4chan that picked that number up, interpreted it the worst way possible on purpose and spread it around everywhere.
