The left most study was only conducted because they failed to understand what that reddit post meant by "poop knife."

I think that means that we need to repeat the study then?

For science?

Let us know how the ovulation cycle impacts tips please.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

tl;dr:

Normally cycling participants earned about US$335 per 5-h shift during estrus, US$260 per shift during the luteal phase, and US$185 per shift during menstruation. By contrast, participants using contraceptive pills showed no estrous earnings peak.

Note: the sample was 'professional lap dancers' working at 'gentlemen's clubs', not a smattering of all tipped positions like I was wondering about.

Sample size was like 18, self reported where they were as far as ovulation (which, yeah, the vast majority of women have no fucking clue) over 60 days.

Someone run this through G*Power for me, Jesus Christ.

Also, humans don’t have ‘estrus.’ This is like basically someone’s weird fetish pretending to be science.

Hey science, what seems to be the fuck?

Not me misreading "human feces" as "human faces" 💀

Could be worse

Could be that paper about masturbating to shota porn

My fiancee learned about that poop knife one in her archaeology class last year

Hey, I have a book written by the guy of the bottom paper. It's called "de eendenman(the duck man)" and although he derails really quickly it's a pretty fun and interesting read. I think he starts talking about penis shorteners halfway through and a guy who is legally dead at some point?

If that's not a New York Times Best Seller book jacket I don't know what is!

I've seen the stamps thing mentioned before, heh.
