Um… Jersey, when they say “may encourage” that is a fucking opinion not fact. Because a virginity pledge is not a pledge when it isn’t kept. Just ask Justin Timberlake about Britney when her body was still good.

Next!

Next? Steve, is human nature is elluding you. Tell a kid not to do something that feels good, give them an irrational reason to not do it, and sure as shit - they will do it.

Where’ve you been?

I hope you have a birdshot proof face mask!

The issue I have with “abstinence pledges” is that they are really not compatible with the economic system we have decided to live under.

We humans evolved (yes evolved) to become sexually active early in life. Hell back in the good old Bible days if a chick was 14 years old she was often married off. By 18 girls were either dead from childbirth complications or on the second or third kid.

Today we would call someone who is 18 with two kids + 1 on the way “slutty”. And a 25 year old man marrying a 16 year old girl is creepy.

My point is, the idea that someone will simply put off sex till they are married is crazy. You are either going to get so worked up that a decision to get married is made in haste and the marriage does not last, or you are going to break the pledge and lie about it.

It is a good idea on paper, but many things that seem like a good idea on paper do not work out as planned in the real world.

And yea I said we evolved. Kind of like how gonorrhea evolved to be resistant to drugs, but in a more complicated way.

steve,

We can’t even get kids to say NO to drugs that have absolutely no biological impulse behind it. What makes you think we are going to get them to stop doing something that has a very strong biological drive behind it? Once again you prove that “Reality has a well-known liberal bias”. While I do agree that the only way to 100% avoid STD’s and unintended pregnancy is to abstain, you’ll be hard pressed to find people actually doing that… So, instead of attempting to force the impossible (one of the right-wing nuts favorite things to do, I might add), as a society it behooves us to work with the way people ARE, not the way they should be…

Lazy I,

Agreed! If we married our teens off when they hit puberty, extra-marital sex wouldn’t be much of a problem….wait, I’m sure adultery would increase as young people experimented…

Maybe this is part of the McDonalds conspiracy. Follow the bouncing ball here!

1. McDonalds invented the drive up window, so that Americans to not even have to get out of their cars to get fatty foods.
2. Escalators and elevators replace all stairs.
3. TV means we can just sit around all day
4. Who needs to ride a real bike when I can play “extreme mountain bike adventure” on the Nintendo Wii?
5. Now you can even order pizza over the internet, as well as work at home. No need to leave the house EVER!

So what does all this do? Well do YOU want to have sex with a walrus? So if Americans can just be made obese enough, nobody will want to have sex with them.

And this whole sex thing is then solved forever. Nobody will be able to reach anyone else’s naughty parts for any reason. Not even their own.

Elevator cables will have to be made stronger, as will deodorant.
