Because such claims are immune to even basic scrutiny. Imagine being a reviewer for a hypothetical paper titled "Gays are good" and finding massive logical and procedural errors with it. Anything other than total support of the paper will be taken as homophobia and your career will be destroyed. I don't trust any claim made about gays, trannies etc in science because it literally cannot be properly reviewed.

I mean it makes sense.

From an evolutionary perspective, homosexuality does not have enough of an impact on productive rates to endanger a group/community and it's a trait that obviously doesn't tend to persist and/or spread.

Spending valuable mental and social resources worrying about/combating homosexuality is not a very intelligent behaviour.

You haven’t posted it. Because it’s not open, but paywalled. I didn’t see it, but you can tell it’s like all the others because they take all the other studies uncritically in the abstract.

>This paper adds to existing knowledge by providing the first analyses of the associations between cognitive ability and attitudes towards LGBT issues in a non-US sample
The studies have always the same issues. Most important. Intelligent people know what they are required to think and what consequences there are for violation. They also get that the researchers have a bias and hence won’t tell them how they truly feel. Basically it doesn’t measure real sentiment, but how well certain groups display compliance with current social forces.

OP here.

I need concrete things to point out in this reserach to claim it bogus.

It is published in ScienceDirect which gives it more reliability.

One anon pointed out about not being critical to previous studies it relies on.

However it does account for religion, background, education etc. I think the problem might be in the 1 to 7 scale of the question. It seems to be completeley subjective as ti what 3 and 7 might be. Someone might perceive 4 to be completely neutral and the person being not interested in the topic while someone would take anything less than a 7 to be "homophobic". What i mean is that its not clear what makes 6 and 7 different. Someone could think that 1 is "kill all gays" and someone else might think 1 is "gays shouldnt have any more rights as they have now". Would that make sense?

Blacks are generally the most "homophobic" race so these results are plausible. That being said, high IQ people are also prejudiced just like low IQ people except towards different groups. But since most academics are leftists who care more about their moral superiority than academic rigor, you only get papers exploring one side of the issue.

>Second, we test “who shows intergroup bias?” and find that people with both relatively higher and lower levels of cognitive ability show approximately equal levels of intergroup bias but toward different sets of groups.

First accurate measure of intelligence. You need to make sure it’s matrices and not something mixed with verbal etc. that’s loosely correlated. Secondly you need to make sure it’s something measurable, especially if bias is a concern. You can’t just flat out or even covertly ask somebody and except relevant results, if it’s related to taboo subjects. So neuroimaging is obligatory. The subjects and the people doing and evaluating the scans have to be clueless, what the study is about (double blind). The people need to get stories, pictures or movies about the issue paired with test/calibrating pictures/movies were you see how certain feelings (anger/disgust/happiness/etc.) look in an individual (these calibration questions are the only ones revealed to the interpreters of the scans). There have to be decoy pictures/movies too. Optimal would be pictures/movies of randomly chosen pictures/films of people that openly are LGBT and doing LGBT stuff. You need at least n=200, but n=300 would be better. The people need to be randomly chosen and checked at different sites. And let somebody, who is blinded to too, who can just see variables do the statistical interpretation. That’s needed to prevent the usual p-value hacking. I had less time than I thought, but that’s the elevator pitch. Maybe I can elaborate more later. I hope it helps.

Disagree. There is a very good reason why practically all societies have either an aversion to homosexuality or else place a value on it that leads to a form of social distancing.

Its a disease caused by a parasite. One which leads to the infected altering their sexual behavior. This helps the parasite to reproduce.

Behavior altering parasites are nothing new. Look it up sometime. There are many different types. Some affect sexual behavior some do not. But they all have one thing in common, they adversely affect the host. Either killing it or reducing its ability to reproduce.

Our ancestors knew nothing about disease vectors, or even about microorganisms. But through untold eons of social adaptation they learned to avoid and distance themselves from individuals exhibiting unusual behavior and characteristics. It was a form of protection against infection.

neither party is libertarian although republican is intrinsically more libertarian concerning regulation and taxation (and just smaller gov in general) wheras dems are inherently opposed to libertarianism as a concept because their entire fundament is using the government as an instrument to redistribute resources. Social conservatism has little bearing on liberty because social views don't have much influence on our constitution
