A couple weeks ago some infographic or another got me off on a tangent trying to correlate divorce rates to states that allowed gay marriage. Unfortunately due to several factors (not all states report divorce/marriage statistics, and it was difficult to categorize states where actual same sex marriage was illegal but also had laws guaranteeing equal civil rights to same sex couples) I never got the data in a clearly displayable format I was happy with.
But suffice it to say that the data that was available seemed to support my hypothesis going in - that the states with the LOWEST divorce rates were more likely to allow same sex marriage or have laws that granted more rights to same sex couples. The states with the HIGHEST divorce rates were the ones most likely to have same sex marriage banned in their state constitutions. Sanctity of marriage indeed.

Yeah. That.
Although that 538 graphic kinda underlines my point about not being easy to represent graphically. There are as many green boxes below the line as above. So while I came to the same "statistically significant" conclusion from looking at the data, the graphic doesn't quite tell the story like I thought it might.

Aha! The "real" Gay Agenda - to reverse our aspect ratios! Diabolical... truly diabolical.

I'm pretty sure Kimberly-Clark (the company that makes Kleenex) is also benefiting from that ad.
