Either states must be consistent and call a spade a spade - that is call ALL underage sex a crime - or just ignore the problem and teach sex education, and watch the teen pregnancies rates continue to sky-rocket.
Don't be ridiculous. That is a false dilemma, and only an especially stupid person would fail to see that. Since I'm not an especially stupid person I'll just note that: no, that is utterly false. A state need not do one or the other.
Moreover, your "spade" is not a spade, because it's also false that all underage sex is criminal. In order for a spade to be a spade then the spade has to be a true statement. Yours isn't.
Finally, your statement that sex education is "ignoring the problem" of minors have sex is also absurdly false. It is obviously addressing the problem, not ignoring it. Whether it's addressing it in the right way is an open question.
It is an impressive achievement to cram so much fallacy and absurdity into one short sentence! I don't think I could do it if I tried. I bow to your skills!
And I duly note your sarcastic abilities. But I'm not impressed.
I'm also not impressed at your anti abstinence approach. Apparently teaching sex education is OK with you.
I'd ask - but but I dont care - what is OK with you? Teaching condom usage to 14 year olds? 8 year olds being taught oral sex? Even younger?
Just so you know: Underage sex is wrong. This is true for 13 year olds as it is for 8 year olds.
IMO, the right way to do sex ed is do both abstinence and "be safe" talk.
Unfortunately, so few even do abstinence anymore.
