Keep It In Your Pants
So, among the "science" being spewed by certain abstinence programs is: half of all gay teens have tested positive for HIV; condoms fail 31% of the time; abortion can make a woman prone to suicide; oh, and men don't really like women who don't keep their mouths shut and stop offering advice. So, how are proponents of these programs responding?
Alma Golden, deputy assistant secretary for population affairs in the Department of Health and Human Services, said in a statement that [Rep. Henry A.]Waxman [D-Calif., head of the study on these programs]'s report is a political document that does a "disservice to our children." Speaking as a pediatrician, Golden said, she knows "abstaining from sex is the most effective means of preventing the sexual transmission of HIV, STDs and preventing pregnancy."
Hmm... I'm sorry, but I missed the part where Waxman said that we should tell teens to get involved in unprotected orgies in the school bathroom to keep the seed from spreading. Oh, right; that's because he didn't. Waxman supports sex-ed programs that emphasize abstinence; he, like anyone with a brain, just hates these junk programs that peddle religiously-motivated propaganda to the kids in the form of "science".
This is what's happening, people. All across the nation, facts are being thrown over for junk science, and if you disagree, then you're an enemy of virginity*. Kinsey must be doing the spin cycle in his grave.
*And An Enemy of Virginity is definitely going to be the name of my ironic-except-not '80s hair band.
