I am more silent on some issues as a result and think more about things before speaking. I suspect that much bigoted ranting is more about ego stroking than about the actual issue, and that does occasionally include me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425913358406411941.post-69747800062035696542012-03-13T00:21:26.559+00:002012-03-13T00:21:26.559+00:00Lovely article.

The huge variety in stats on this topic leads me to suspect that a lot of people really aren't that interested, and will let the wording of the question guide them in the direction of the answer the questionners want to hear. Possibly I'm wrong and it's about other factors, carefully picking your subjects for instance, but it's a hunch I have. They should try doing a few polls where the answers include several variations on "I haven't really thought about it" "It doesn't apply to me" to see what is really going on - or rather, what isn't!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
