Too Much 'Family Guy,' Fantasy Football, Porn: R.I. Men Ranked Most Immature in Country

Do you agree with these findings?

The prototypical Rhode Island man is a huge fan of “Family Guy” and spends most of his free time on his computer or mobile device, playing fantasy football and watching porn.

At least that’s according to a new survey by the real estate service Estately, which ranked Ocean State men the most immature in the country.

The survey was based on unemployment rates, porn viewership, and ”enthusiasm” for fantasy football, among other factors.

Estately said it conducted the survey after a Pew Research report last month showed a decline in marriage rates. Estately said that may indicate a “decline in men who are worthy of marrying.”

Another factor in Estately’s survey was enthusiasm for the animated TV show “Family Guy,” which is set in Rhode Island. Seth MacFarlane, who created the show, has roots in the state, as he graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design. Estately’s survey of male Facebook users aged 25 to 65 showed the greatest segment of men who watch or like the show are from Rhode Island.

“Grown men still gather around their families’ televisions to laugh at Family Guy, then retreat to the basement for some fart jokes and beer pong,” Estately wrote. “If you’re interested in dating single men you might want to consider a different locale.”
