It might be nature's way of cleaning out the gene pool.
Good grief. All that sex ed and free condoms and look.... no progress. Lets go back to the social shame program. It seemed to work better.

Teenagers in this generation are dumbasses. They hear everywhere that if you have sex, bring kiddie protection. They don't listen and end up getting pregnant.

Sounds like the Brits have come to America. Another thread spoke of not teaching core studies but everything else. Pubic schuls teach sex-ed instead of abstinance and this is the result? Go figure.

They tried abstinence education. The ACLU paired with PPFA to fight it becauise it was a violation of church-state separation. Understandable, since abstinence cuts into PP's profits.
I dont see how abstinence is religious at all.

More garbage. (Not from you!)
There is no provision for separation of church and state. None.
Arguing with a liberal village idiot is pointless. Light and fact can neither escape nor enter the black hole of liberalism.
Just part of the degeneration of society; the death of civilization,
which includes the normalization of perversion, and
the slutification of young women.
The "try it - you'll like it" messages promoting casual sex and the "gay lifestyle" on the one hand, and the denigration of decency on the other, is wreaking havoc on our society.
But then, that's part of the Marxists' plan.

When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.
When the government fears the people, there is liberty.
What happens when neither fears the other?
Abstinence education is still very prominent in "sex ed" classes...

The easy availability of abortion renders moot all efforts to get teens to use condoms. NOBODY LIKES CONDOMS. But in the heat of the moment the temptation is so strong, you both want it so bad and, after all, you can always get an abortion ...
I think how abstinence is taught is probably what is most important here.

I know a 30 year old guy that had his father give him a box of condoms for his 16th birthday and said "Don't **** up your life because you were too stupid to not come prepared."
It scared the 16 year old to death when he realized he could knock up a girl by being stupid. Long story short, he didn't knock up a girl.

All men agree that the most difficult stage during sex is when they must pretend they are the county fair balloon artist working a small, folding card table and a tip jar.
No matter how it's taught, abstinence always leaves something to be desired.I think how abstinence is taught is probably what is most important here
Tell me about it......

“Circumstantial evidence is a very tricky thing,” answered Holmes thoughtfully; “it may seem to point very straight to one thing, but if you shift your point of view a little, you may find it pointing in an equally uncompromising manner to something entirely different” . . . “There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact”.
