Kinsey-like analysis of writer rejections

Interesting article here if you found the movie (or phenomenon of) Kinsey fascinating. This particular study focuses on writer rejection slips and how they correlate to sexual behaviour.

As they say in marketing: sex sells. So, if you're going to conduct a study that will get press attention, I guess you can follow this same maxim.

The most interesting facet of the article to me is the fact that some authors -- who, by association, financially supported the study -- questioned whether it was a proper use of member dues. Hmm. What, if anything, does a science fiction writer want but to contribute to what we know about mankind. It's the driving force behind all speculative fiction: the fascination of what we're all doing here and why.

Yet another insight fueled by our salacious curiosities. Keep it up scientists.
