\u2026 Everybody on Patheos is talking about sex, or more specifically abstinence only education. Does it work or doesn\u2019t it? Some think it\u2019s silly to expect teenagers not to have sex \u2013 rochas quote- but I think it\u2019s perfectly acceptable to say to my son \u201cI EXPECT you not to have sex until you are married\u201d. Not all this \u201ctill you are in loooooove\u201d junk. Kids juiced up hormones can\u2019t properly distinguish between self sacrificing love and a hole in the ground. And most certainly not, \u201cWhen you think you\u2019re ready\u201d garbage either. <\/p>\n
Back to abstinence only education. When I was in high school we got a bizarre mixture of abstinence only and safe sex education. Don\u2019t have sex; having pre-marital sex makes you slutty and nice boys don\u2019t marry sluts. But if you decide to be a whore at least be a smart whore about it and use protection. It was all very schizophrenic. <\/p>\n
The abstinence aspect of the sex education program involved a lot of analogies about chewed up gum and filthy water.
\nThe safe sex education was mainly focues dIn one breath we were told it\u2019s best not to sully our purity and the next breath we were shown how to properly put a condom on a banana. So which was it\u2026 are we smart or are we slutty? <\/p>\n
Well, considering the failure rate of artifical birth control compared to teh succes rate of keeping it in your pants, I\u2019d say giving handfuls of condoms to lusty teenagers is probably not the smartest of things. <\/p>\n
I suppose that just leaves slutty. But saying this is demeaning apparently to young girls who may have already had sex. What about their poor psyche? How can they ever redeem or correct their behavior if we call them wads of already been chewed gum?<\/p>\n
If they feel like they are already ruined where is there motivation to stop the cycle of promiscuity? <\/p>\n
Is abortion murder or not? If it is than those who participate in the act of guilty of the sin of murder. Right? So how is it any different to say \u201cHey <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
