Sex = slut. Yep. That's how it goes. No, that isn't it at all. Having sex, not using protection, being completely un-aware about the dangers and risks of sex, not knowing what is what in the whole situation, that's a slut. Having sex and getting pregnant because you were too stupid to know that if he comes inside you, and you haven't had your period within twenty-something or thirty-something days, and you both, and your new baby, ends up with AIDs. That's being a slut. Or dressing up slutty every day of the week, and having your boyfriend ask for sex, and going "I'm not ready" but doing it anyways. That's being a slut. Need I go on? Thanks Jordan Sparks! You educated me farther than Miley Cyrus' promises go! I agree. Sex = slut. Yep. That’s how it goes.

REALITY. It is an interesting correlation, though, that when parents hated their kids' music idols, teen pregnancy and crime rates (among other social issues) were lower than current, when parents are busy fawning over their kids' music idols, JOBROS music playing in the background as they croon to their grandchild produced by their 13-year-old daughter while that grandparent is a mere 26. Yeah, I've seen that happen, having worked for an OB/GYN, and more than once. So I agree they can shove their promise rings where the sun don't shine. While abstinence-only education may not work, it's pretty obvious that more comprehensive sex education doesn't work that well, either. Here's a novel idea: After giving these kids sex education, educate them that there will be CONSEQUENCES for their actions and they will be held ACCOUNTABLE for those actions (as in PUNISHMENT, not mommy-coddling and government hand-outs and all your friends ooohhhhing and aaahhhhing over how cute your baby is while you're secretly thinking about throwing it in the nearest dumpster or flushing it down the school toilet), then STICK TO IT. Wonder how quickly the teen pregnancy rate would drop if there were REAL consequences..... That’s what we get for placing more value on entertainment and sports than education and… REALITY.

Federal law establishes a stringent eight-point definition of “abstinence-only education” that requires programs to teach that sexual activity outside of marriage is wrong and harmful—for people of any age. The law also prohibits programs from advocating contraceptive use or discussing contraceptive methods except to emphasize their failure rates. Federal guidelines now define sexual activity to include any behavior between two people that may be sexually stimulating, which could be interpreted as including even kissing or hand-holding. There are three federal programs dedicated to funding restrictive abstinence-only education: Section 510 of the Social Security Act, the Adolescent Family Life Act’s teen pregnancy prevention component and Community-Based Abstinence Education (CBAE). The total funding for these programs is $176 million for FY 2006. It's insane. I did some research on abstinence only program ineffectiveness and on how many tax dollars are being poured into it.

Probably around the same time it was deemed "okay" to get knocked up at 16 and 17, as long as you were going to keep the kid and marry the dick who doesn't know how to use a condom. Can we please just start sterilizing these people now?? I think it would solve a whole lot of present and future problems. “When did sex become the most vilified thing on the earth but lying about your chastity to sell a few albums became the more honorable way to go?”

This is totally industry fed bullshit. Those idiots were told to respond in this way. Look like a naieve idiot and sell more records. "When did sex become the most vilified thing on the earth but lying about your chastity to sell a few albums became the more honorable way to go?" Completely agree. couldnt have said it better myself. People need to wake the hell up and teach children consequence not promise rings, chastity or abstinence. Having a vow with god, wearing a chastity belt and a promise ring does nothing for the pair who feel that a little oral or anal is not really sex. A few bastard children in the world is not the only issue were facing here. STD's on the rise because of stupidity and lack of information can and probably will kill some these star stricken, god fearing kids. “If you have sex you are a slut… Wow.”
