NewsFlash: Teenagers Have Hormones
Posted in: Health care
Who could possibly have known that "abstinence pledges" wouldn’t work on raging teenage hormones, sweaty back seat escapades, or Lover’s Lanes?
As if sex were only discovered in the last 15 years by Phyllis Schlalfly’s rampant and ill-informed prude brigades? Puh-leese.
Isn’t it time to retire the myth of the aspirin-between-the-knees preventative system once and for all and get realistic about sex education? Or is it too much to ask that we reduce the risk of unwanted pregnancies, HIV transmission and venereal disease?
Education is your teenager’s friend. Unless, of course, you thrive and fundraise on the backs of other people’s ignorance.
PS — While we’re at it, can the creepy "purity ball" movement disappear now, too? Ick.
