In NY state, at least, there's a 2 year mandatory Health class requirement (at least when I was there) That encompasses everything from fitness, to yes, a long drawn out sex-ed.

We were taught everything from 'abstinence is best, but if you're gonna have sex..."

Hell the instructor even showed how to put a condom on a banana (was a guy too, we all thought he was a little fruity btw... and he was also the male Wrestling team coach.. go figure)
Also included was Devlar's picture book of STD's.. Hospital Film footage of STD's, a Live birth, etc etc etc etc etc.. Trust me. it was ALL ENCOMPASING..

the ONLY downside to this program... was that you needed a signed permission slip to be in it, and if you didnt get one, you spent like 2 months doing something else (dont remember what, but i remember it sucked, so as people would TRY to get the slip signed instead of blowing it off, and only kids whose parents REALLY didnt want them to go, didnt)

Suprisingly, there were a few kids that did that 'other thing' most, i recall from those 'religous fanatical' famlies... Oh.. I remember what one of the the 'other things' was.. You had to Write a Sex-Ed report.. the teacher said 'if your parents dont want you in my class, then they probably want to teach you themselves, so write me a (5? i dont remember) Page report encompassing everything related to abstinence, Safe sex, & STD's'

I commend this (possibly gay) man for his actions there.. He really wanted to make sure everyone got the full dish.. maybe even a little too full.. he said 'penis' wayyyy to often, like he was talking about his favorite thing..

Few of those teenagers continue to save themselves for marriage - 88% have sex before they reach the altar.
It would work better if they'd stay true to their word.  Weaklings.

It's called an "agenda", Hed, basically trying to get all of the "religious" types to crawl down a hole somewhere by throwing numbers at us and saying "See?  It doesn't work so lets pass out MORE CONDOMS because THAT SOLVES EVERYTHING!!!"  That's why these kinds of articles show up.  Nevermind the fact that the culture is so overloaded with sexual material that avoiding temptation is nigh impossible unless you live in a monastary.  Well, even those aren't safe anymore lately.  People bitch about STD's and then turn around and whine about decency regulations and not being able to show hardcore porn on prime time broadcast television.  The solutions are simple enough but nobody wants to walk the sensible road.  They want to play the game without paying the price, and it doesn't work that way.

Commitment and dedicated monogamy aren't popular or "cool" in this day, virtue and morality have gone the way of the dinosaur, and people lack even a shred of the self control required to make this work.  I say if you can't keep a commitment and keep your pants on then you deserve to have your pecker rot off.  Maybe heartless on my part, but I'm rather tired of suffering fools who can't control themselves.  If I can keep a commitment to my mate across the ages, and she keep hers to me, then from my perspective there ARE no excuses.  Don't make promises if you can't keep them.

Yet somehow Europe that has been showing "hardcore porn on broadcast television" and handing out more condoms has less of a teen pregnancy and STD problems

...interesting...

Europe has what America doesn't: the desensitization of nudity. Honestly, I think if America adapted the same thing, it'd be a much better place.
