Abstinence-only policies are so effective and well thought out that I think they should be applied to other aspects of life.

Don't wear seatbelts, just try not to get in a car accident.
Don't get vaccinated, just stay away from sick people.
Don't wear life jackets, just stay away from water.

It works great if nothing bad happens!

People gonna fuck!  Always have always will.  Deep down we are all promiscuous little primates.  Preaching abstinence don't do shit.

Waiting, for your modern messiah
To take away all the hatred

All joking aside. I'm at a loss as to why anyone would expect an abstinence only approach to work. 

If I were in charge of sex education I'd have a "make sure you trust this person" approach and then a discussion of the options.

And besides, in a world where it rains every so often, wouldn't you be pissed off if some guy knew about umbrellas and didn't tell you?

It's your own fault for getting wet.  You wouldn't be wet if you weren't outside all the time.  :P

Really, when you think about it, the answer's pretty simple.  Since abstinence-only doesn't work, encourage gay sex.  That way everyone's getting their jollies, and no one's getting pregnant.

Obviously.  And in addition we should pass laws saying you can't sell pizza to people who don't engage in gay sex, or to heterosexuals who are not willing to change their sexual orientation through various counseling programs made available under Obamacare.

With one exception (that I regret to this day), being a fanatical Christian never deterred me from having sex at every opportunity, when I was a teenager.

Not mine.

Probably not mine.
