I didn't realize we needed to spend money on some new way to tell people to stop fucking if they don't want kids, I thought that was common knowledge?:wtf:
You realize no matter how much money is spent on "more effective sex-ed programs", people will still fuck and have kids even when they can't or don't want to take care of them. Then those same people will stick their hand out and ask everyone else to pay for them. So what exactly is the problem, and what are you advocating?:wtf:
Abstinence is effective as a practice, but abstinence-only sex education is not effective as a policy. If all you tell teenagers is "stop fucking," you haven't taught them anything. You said yourself that "people will still fuck and have kids even when they can't or don't want to take care of them." So how is preaching abstinence and not teaching anything else going to change that?

You may have recieved abstinence-only sex education yourself and not be aware of this, but there are actually a lot of contraceptives that are very effective at preventing pregnancy, and condoms are pretty effective against STDs. I've been fucking for over 20 years and have never had an unintended pregnancy or an STD, so "stop fucking" is not the only option.

I'm sure Palin told her daughter to "stop fucking," and now she's gonna be a baby-mama.

I agree that the fact that Palin's daughter is pregnant is not relevant to her veto of the teen mother funding, but it is ironic. And I think her pregnant daughter does show the failure of abstinence-only sex education.
