Information is bad. Thinking about consequence & changing course is too. I get it. Just not buying it.

If half a million is spent preventing teen pregnancies, abortions, & STD's, it's a bargain. The whining in this thread all taking place among juvenile delinquent boys in mens bodies not mature enough to face reality.

"Now, New York lawmaker State Sen. Martin Golden — who alleges the videos portray unprotected sex as “so good, so juicy”– is up in arms...“This video is raunchy,” Golden told Fox News. “It’s wrong, it’s shameful and they shouldn’t be doing it.”

"Raw Dogging?!"...Am I so old now that it can't be called boinking, horizontal hokey pokey, scoring, banging, doing, knocking up, humping, or just plain old having sex?

With that said, I think the idea that the government is "corrupting" our kids is ridiculous.
Uh huh. How about the parents who 'corrupt' their kids with misinformation or outright deny them education about their own sexuality sending them headlong into hunting season wearing a fur coat, only to blame them for getting shot? Turnabout being fair play, can we shoot those parents? How about we get legislation going allowing their kids to sue them for child support for unwanted pregnancies and/or damages from STD's?

WHO is the adult, again? I'm confused.

The adult is the parent in the family who instills their own morality into their children. Not all parents are perfect. Government isn't perfect. Life isn't perfect. Live with it.

I don't want my 13 year old child being taught about "raw dogging." I don't want my tax dollars paying for this. You like it? Then make a donation to a private organization that my kids aren't mandated to attend.

America. Personal Freedom. Personal Choices. Personal Responsibility.

I prefer to fund abortions and welfare, myself.
