Florida surveying young women about their sex lives in exchange for gift card
Excerpt:FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – The state of Florida is asking thousands of young women some intimate questions their sex lives and is giving them a $10 gift card in return -- but some who received the survey are offended. The South Florida Sun Sentinel reported Sunday that the Department of Health sent surveys to 4,100 women between 18 and 24, giving participants a CVS gift card. Officials say the survey will help them understand women's need for and approach to family-planning services. The state spent $45,000 on the 46-question survey, which was sent out in September and October, and 782 have been returned. Participants were asked how many men they had sex with over the last year and how they felt emotionally the last time they had unprotected sex. A November batch weren't mailed after it was found that some of the surveys were sent to girls under 18.

There wasn't enough information to tell her who really did this and where the budget was for it, whether the information was going to be kept private, and really, what are they talking about in terms of how does this information in any way help?" |

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
