Risky sexual behavior among Americans is putting the public’s health at risk, according to a new CDC study.

Researchers found that the rates of early death and disability attributed to sexual behavior in the U.S. are triple those of any other industrialized country, and women bear the brunt of this public health burden.

Pardon me Sir and or Madam, but do I tell you how to post?
Perhaps I posted bold for another reason.
However I do have one suggestion for you...

DECAF!

Does the coffee have to be in bold? And large fonts?

Let me guess, you just learned how to do the rudimentary html functions....

Quote on starbucks coffee cup:

""My only regret about being gay is that I repressed it for so long. I surrendered my youth to the people I feared when I could have been out there loving someone. Don't make that mistake yourself. Life's too damn short."

Gee, I wonder why?

No, just having fun. No offense intended.

This is quite important, as young women are not aware of the dangers and are losing their lives over this. Please do not pooh-pooh scientific fact when the issue is so serious. I'm sure some men don't care, as not much can happen to them except a few warts.

"Liberals suck."

I could have lived without the imagery. ;o)

Oh my, can you image the screaming of the lesbo, homo population when they find out they will be taxed for risky sex habits. This is to offset the medical expenses incurred by the public to treat their STD's. Amen.

You seem confused. It's not a FACT. That is the whole point I was making.

[firebrand]

What would make it a FACT for you?

[Protagoras]

What would make it a FACT for you?

Proof. Some evidence would also help. Keeping in mind, correlation is a weak form of evidence, and evidence is not proof.

Interesting.

I wonder if this is another effort to "mainstream panic" diseases which are concentrated on SPECIFIC sexual behaviors. IOW homosexual conduct yeilds an early death, so the CDC is trying to PC the fact by omiting the concentrations.

Hey come on guys after all Oak Park is a nuclear free zone. I intend to drive the two miles from my house to Oak Park should a war look likely surely that will make me safe.

AIDS, cervical cancer, HPV, etc. the list is long.

We need a "SEX TAX" to recover the cost that we are all paying for the risky behavior of a few licentious people.

Heh heh, I would not normally agree to any new tax BUT this one has some promise. And it might help offset the bucks going to AIDS?
