    I’m trying to imagine applying this logic to anything else.

    Telling a friend not to try out for the baseball team, because playing baseball will increase your stress. Warning my sister not to watch a scary movie, because evidence shows they cause fear and discomfort. Breaking off a date with a cutie, because I’ve got butterflies and I don’t want to feel anxious.

    What do these sociologists think about rollercoasters or car races or heavy metal concerts, I wonder?
