It makes some basic sense to say gambling is increasing among young men, and gaming is increasing in young men, maybe they are related.
Their data is lacking to draw strong conclusions, but the question is interesting.
- dgfitz 1y agoGambling increased because many states recently legalized it. Any other correlation is puff science. I know more than a few degenerate gamblers. My one buddy bets ~250k/yr, the rest are about ~100k. I'm like 10k (and through luck or skill I end every year up between 2-10k). I'm the only gamer of this group of 10 people, even as kids.
- tokai 1y agoThis research is not about the US. Also don't use a slur for homosexual to denigrate anything.
- Macha 1y agoThe slur is spelled differently, and puff science (and its predecessor term puff/puffery) predate the slur by over a century.
- lan321 1y agoSlur for homosexual?
- coffeecantcode 1y agoPuff is not a slur, puff science indicates that it’s vaporous or there is no basis or grounds. Poof on the other hand, could be taken as a slur, sure. Let’s relax.
