The second issue is that this looks largely like another MTV teen sluttiness grab and publish. This essentially tells me that these paper SHOULD NEVER be published in a top econ journal because not only are the authors oblivious and unaware of the current literature on this topic (assuming that they didn't do something wrong) as the editors and referees of the AER are totally oblivious of the literature to even be considered mildly competent to touch this s**t. CAN THE AER STOP f**kING WITH ECONOMICS. THESE EDITORS OF THE AER ARE f**kING INCOMPETENT!</blockquote>
