Sex in Minnosota Goes to Court

As reported by by Tim Nelson, Minnesota Public Radio

We here at Abstinence condoms, love a good debate and this article

covers all the bases – among other things . Carefully reviewing the facts, that we all know- Abstinence Alone doesn’t work, Abstinence..the Condom does.

“The latest survey of school kids by the education department found that for the first time in more than a decade, more kids say they’re having sex. And more of them are engaging in sex without birth control. In fact, one in seven sexually active high school seniors now say they never use birth control, up from one in nine in 2004.”

Debate – Abstinence VS. the Condom

In a recent article on Salon.com, the debate rages on! Join in the conversation.

Dr. Allan Brandt: “There’s always been this anxiety that if you put technology into the hands of people to promote sexual health you will also encourage what’s perceived to be illicit sexuality.”

In the first place, sexual activity goes on with or without encouragement. In the second place, saying that availability of condoms promotes sex is like saying the use of seat belts promotes driving. Either way, there will be accidents, but to not use either protection is foolishness.

Abstinence-Only Vs. Comprehensive Sex Ed

Although the controversy over sexuality education is being played out in a number of ways, the abstinence-only movement is clearly having the biggest impact. Abstinence-only programs are reportedly used in about 25% of the nation’s roughly 16,000 school districts. Among the most popular: “Sex Respect.” (See the related story on Sex Respect.)
