Andrew, I'm not entirely sure that's true. In some cases, absolutely, but I have had many discussions with my brother, a US Public Health official, about whether or not schools should teach safe sex over abstinence. It's certainly a mindset that is being leaned towards by more and more schools, and I think even a lot of religious groups are beginning to realize that trying to bring science alongside religion is often a poor idea. Maybe it's just the church I went to, but we are able to talk pretty frankly in college-age youth group back home about this kind of stuff. Thankfully, we're not festering in the 19th century anymore with morality. -Cash | Andrew, I'm not entirely sure that's true.

I think that after reading this section of the chapter there is somewhat of a swing towards believing sexual activity to be more of a normal human function. -Joe C. | ||
