I think in theory, abstience is a good thing. Obviously, if you're not having sex, a sexually safe life style, the chanceof STDS or HIV/AIDS is going to very low to non exisitent.

There has to be a middle ground, where kids have all the facts; not just the "black and white" ones. There are other ways of of being intimate with your partner. There are other ways of acting cool. There are other ways to feel loved. If these kids are presented with the facts (all the facts, options, solutions), then they can make an informed decision. But that's completely up to them. Its not too much to ask teenagers to make up their own mind... they have to start some time. So yes, abstience, in theory is the best way to stay clean. But its not the only way, its certainly not the funnest way, and kids shouldn't hear, "its this, or that!!"

Well, since abstinence is defined as not having sex till you're ready, aren't we all living an abstinent lifestyle until we have sex? Unless you get raped or something. But if you want to start a program like that it's cool. Alot of teens need to be educated about sex. Because once I went through sex ed, i knew everything. And I mean EVERYTHING! I even had my sisters friend who is three years older than me, asking me questions about this topic, and what if this happens, and what if that happens and so fourth. I even had to correct her on some facts. So lack of education on the subject is definetly the first problem.

Sex is a very personal and emotional thing but these days it seems like sex is the "cool" thing to do like it's no big deal. Well, it is. I feel that each person should wait until it feels 100% right. For some people it means waiting until marriage but not always. If you're thinking about having sex with your partner and you feel a little uncomfortable and have some doubts, then you are not ready. Man, I sound like a school counselor. Well, my first time was in 10th grade and my boyfriend was in 9th but we were totally ready and now we are engaged. And should you decide that you are ready make sure that you are safe. There are lots of places you can get support and info. My point is: Wether or not to have sex is a big important decision and it should not be made lightly. It is an act of pure love. Ok, I'm done now.

wow, you're selfish.

I would surely join your club! I think more people should no about abstinence. Like my friend's example:

You have slept with someone, maybe a few people, and you really don't think much about it. Well, when you are older(and surely wiser), you meet the most perfect guy EVER! You fall in love and he strongly believes in abstinence. So, you wait until you are married to have sex. Well, what is he going to think when(and you SHOULD!), that you have slept with, oh let's say 3 guys. He is going to feel...Really...not loved. It will be like him sleeping with all the guys you slept with. gross?...YEAH! It should be special. All these meaningless crushes we all have shouldn't lead you to do something so MAJOR!
I know if I waited(which I will) to have sex until i'm married, and my husband has slept with even one girl. I won't feel AS important. It's not special to be the 2nd or 3rd. It's special to be the 1st. Now don't you want the one you TRULY love to feel special, and be the first?!?!

Think about it..PLEASE!

well i would not say that abstinence is the surefit way to go but its a must that u remember all the aspects of sex when "sex educating."

yeah that would be amusing but they do that in classes in my school anyway no need 4 a club!

Oh...it just said a program, I thought they meant an assembly or presentation, not a club. Whatever. Jen.

look at the very top message.... it's always there.

An abstinence club would be kind of ridiculous (by the way, where did anyone mention starting a club?)...unless they hosted orgies or something, which would be kind of amusing. Well, it would...

*sigh*

Yeah, I'll shut up.

Jen.

What WOULD happen in an abstinence club? Uptight prÎcks all get together to have all sorts of fun by not having sex and talking about how great it is that they wont get any std's? *Bore.... ring* Who is the club benefitting anyways? Nobody would care about joining unless they got budget money to go on field trips, but where would they go.... sex is everywhere.


(Congratulations to Koriss for knowing exactly what all that jibberish was) Bravo dear boy, just don't major in interpretation.

Okay, Poncho, I get what you're saying now...

I agree, there should be in-depth sex education...if there's a 36% chance of condom failure, for heaven's sake, TELL them that, rather than just taking the "sex is bad" approach and having one assembly a year that tries to scare kids into abstinence with horror stories of teenage pregnancy, without explaining WHY abstinence is better or what the alternatives are...I don't know about y'all, but our school's presentation was mainly geared toward girls, saying that if your boyfriend gets you pregnant, he probably won't stick around and then your life is ruined...okay, that's SO not the point of sex education...you're supposed to educate, not preach and try to scare the kids; everyone just rolls their eyes and does what they want anyway. If someone would actually explain the dangers of sex with condoms, birth control, ect., as opposed to abstinence, kids might actually listen to them...okay, I'm ranting. Sorry y'all. Love, Jen.

I'm so glad to see all you people speaking civilly about this issue. It definitely gives me hope for the future Thanks so much for being level-headed about all this.

I admit I misspoke. It was very stupid to say it causes more kids to have unprotected sex. It does, however, cause the kids who do have sex be much less likely to use a condom because they have not been taught why they should.

What I support is comprehensive, in depth sex education so these kids know what they're getting into, instead of just being told that they shouldn't do it.

I like stupidity’s approach.

If we just ignore/take for granted the problem, eventually it will get better...

Oh well, HIV is only for like a week anyway right stupidity?
Even if not, it would be worth it to get your rocks off in some ****. Which is all that really matters.

Now where is the “Suck my butt stupidity” picture at…?

Yeah I think the government has the power to keep children from having sex too, but only because abstinence feels so good when you do it just right. Soon it'll be all the rage, like not smoking pot and never skipping school. Just keep an eye out for those scary abstinence gangs, they'll bust a cap in your Äss faster than you can say "fu¢ked your uncle".
