You’re countering my comment about abstinence only sex education with a discussion of abstinence first sex education. I’ve never heard of or met someone who advocates abstinence only sec education who doesn’t also feel that premarital sex is immoral. Have you? Abstinence only education is about preventing sex; judging it on how well it prevents pregnancy misses this point.
My argument is that a position of abstinence can be far more than a one of morality. There are plain factual benefits to it.
Everyone on government assistance or with a criminal record should get free birth control, abortions and/or sterilizations. I would gladly pay more taxes for that.

Sure. I don’t disagree. All of those benefits are conferred by teaching abstinence first and other things in addition. The only reason to exclude teaching about safe sex practices seems to be a moral objection to premarital sex.

These are likely the ones having the most litters. Devolution
All forms of birth control should be available without a prescription. People are going to have sex regardless of what you try to tell them. Especially women, when you tell them NOT to do something they're just going to go ballistic and do the exact opposite to spite you.
So does access to accurate knowledge and birth control.
Truth^ Abstain if you can. If you can't protect yourself.
