Thread Name: BS: 4% of all males are psychopaths
Subject: RE: BS: 4% of all males are psychopaths
My Google on Prof. Buss didn't produce much in the way of direct info on his theories. He's written several "pop psych" books, and they're still selling well; so of course there are few direct quotes or samples to be found.

I did find a number of reviews by other psych(o) professors of speeches and/or classes by Prof. Buss. Most of them were to an extent critical of his work, and of course the few citations included in their reviews convincingly proved each and every one of their points.

Having reviewed reviews by at least a half dozen reviewers, and having read some 30 or 40 pages of their reviews, I did observe that there were fewer than a half dozen complete grammatical sentences in the entirety of all the articles I looked at. This leads me to the conclusion that 100% of psychologists, in the research fields related to the work of Dr. Buss, suffer from some personality defect that prevents them from forming complete thoughts, and/or expressing them in ordinary grammatical forms.

I think that's enough research for me for this morning.
