Actually that is not true. As our culture evolves over time, social tendencies may change a great deal. However, the point I am trying to make is that every day new studies are overturning results from old research. And any scientist who just considers old studies as accepted is not a very good scientist.

PS. I am NOT disparaging science in general, only that which is 42 years old and posted on a forum as (quotes again) "proof."
