Statisticians have attempted to link FALLACIOVISAGISM to the rising rate of "virtual" homicides brought on by the casual uploading of doctored portraits prevalent in the cyberdating arena. While the jury is still out on these claims, we should all be aware of the siren which lurks behind the laptop- FALLACIOVISAGISM ! Beware of "headshots"!
