Maybe it has to do with the birth control killing women’s libidos. Men perhaps are not cleaning the pipes out as much because their girlfriends, wives, or lovers just aren’t as into it…? Condoms, vaginal barriers, and the paraguard iud don’t mess with women’s hormones and thus more pipe cleaning for their lover.

Guys, your exercises in logic are absolutely right on cue. How can these idiots equate increased prostrate cancer in men with Birth Control pills taken by women? I especially love the “giraffes in Africa” analogy.

Already been debunked a year ago. Why are they still bashing BC pills?

I don’t see the word ‘correlation’ anywhere in this ‘article’.

ABC logic:

Government corruption is the most severe in Africa.
Africa has more giraffes than anywhere else in the world.
Therefore, giraffes cause government corruption.

The conclusions in your article are as valid as the following analogy. “Men living in continents like North America and Europe are at higher risk for prostate cancer, while those areas also have a higher use of bad journalistic reporting online such as ABC News. The conclusion; ABC News causes prostate cancer.”

Good heavens. Increased BC pill use corresponds to increased wealth, which corresponds to all sorts of other lifestyle and environmental factors different from regions of lower economic strength. And I suppose they separated and accounted for all of that – or they just the correlation they were already seeking priori? Causality CANNOT be inferred from this.
