Abstinence-Only Education Leaves Lasting Impression On Teens
The news has been all over the recent Federal study on STD prevalence in teens. The study of 838 teens showed that 26% were infected with some form of Sexually Transmitted Disease.
Some critics have pointed to abstinence-only education as the culprit, claiming that by only teaching them abstinence, they did not have adequate education on STDs or proper protection. I like to think that these critics are just liberals that are capitalizing on this scapegoat of STDs to try to proliferate promiscuous, irresponsible sex amongst our nation’s youth. The social conservatives are the only thing keeping our children moral and clean, by keeping them in the dark about everything related to their genitalia.
I also like to believe that if I close my eyes, anything I disagree with will stop and disappear.

This has been my experience. I recommend trying it next time you’re about to get punched.
Even worse, Junction City.

Maybe the results were skewed because of the sample. Did they get all these kids from the Springfield bus station?
In that case, I am going to stop looking at the I-Fee.
