This is why other forms of sex are needed to be taught. Sorry, but if your daughter is going to have sex.. wouldn't you rather her end up giving BJ's to the guys instead of getting pregnant at 16? Yes yes, there's always abstinence and I fully agree with that choice. However, if the teens (or ANYONE rather!!!) decide they want to act on the stimulation of sex.. "vaginal" should be one the last choices unless both parties are equipped with anti-pregnancy protection lol!
Translation...

Don't have sex.

Yeah, thats a real solution, and one thats likely to happen.

Telling people to abstain always works.

Now, now, you're asking people to take personal responsibility. That doesn't happen in this country. In this country, you make a mistake and expect everyone else to clean up your mess. Stop thinking rationally! /sarcasm

No, try again.

Translation: Don't have sex if you CANNOT AFFORD either birth control or the outcome of a pregnancy.

That's a real solution.

Asking for personal responsibility is great, fine. But not planning for the inevitable default on that request isn't being stupid, or evil, or promoting infidelity.

Thanks for putting words in my mouth.
IF you read what I said, people should do other sexual things instead of vaginal.

If you choose to do it unprotected and get pregnant, then it's your responsibility to take care of it. Not us. Why is this so hard?

People can and should do whatever they want and not pay the consequences? It's BS

It's like telling termites to not eat wood. I don't think you can call it a solution when you know there is no way it will ever work. Why do you think they have 10-15 kids per family in Africa? They WILL have sex and have kids, and YOU WILL pay for the consequences of not dealing with the problem

Not if we take away incentives for these people to keep reproducing. They might think twice if they know the gov't isn't going to just hand them everything they need to live.

Some cultures had children to EAT them.

Humans will procreate, even if just to eat.

They don't have incentives in Africa, Asia and South America, and they still have way too many babies. Who told you people have babies because of incentives? That is a weird argument with nothing to back it up. Do you really think the government hands people everything they need? No, they are handed barely enough to survive, and they live in misery.

No, it's not. You will not die if you don't have sex. I know you may not believe it but it truly is not the same as telling a creature not to eat to survive.

Are you seriously comparing the American culture to those in Africa? REALLY?!!?
