Notre Dame Research Illuminates More Politically Incorrect Truths About Women

I skimmed over the original research article. She conveniently ignores the possibility that the people doing the research were perhaps biased.
Here is the study:

My concern is that the people going out to interview the subjects were subconsciously projecting. In other words, there was no control to prevent pedestalisation of 'beautiful' female subjects, or other forms of projection that would have interfered with the data collection. The other issue, would a beautiful slut really admit that sluttiness to the interviewer? These people were interviewed face-to-face, which means that a slut would have to admit sluttiness right in someone's face - someone who has a 'pure' image to maintain is not going to admit that.
Plus, this study only looks at a group of people that were teenagers in the 90's, in other words the results of this study apply to the pre-smartphone generation.
It's dangerous to draw conclusions from a study with so many potential holes.
