Promiscuity is not a positive thing.

I never said that. But the issue is something to be shared inside the family and not in the public.

I'm not affiliated with any of those groups but from what I have heard there are two reasons they make it public. One is to reduce the peer pressure on those who choose not to have sex. There is tremendous pressure on kids in the US to have sex in order to 'fit in' and 'be cool'. The second is that people are much more likely to meet a commitment they have publically stated vs one they made to themselves.

Teen promiscuity is not a "family issue" to be shared...it IS a problem that more and more parents here in the USA are willing to stop before it begins. If Euro parents (or shall I say "genetic material donors?") are NOT willing to exercise their parental authority and responsibilty, then it's not surprising to see Europe slowly dying and turning into Eurabia.

Your choice, though. Just don't complain when your kids come home with unwanted pregnancies or STDs.

I agree with that statement.

No sex is not a private matter anymore. POP culture insists on sexualizing childern with clothes, toys, advertizing etc.(I saw FAO Schwartz's Barbie doll this morning on T.V. with garter belt and fishnet stockings and push up bra for 7-8 year old's)

After my friend's Daughter(age 13) as part of a science project at a public school was paired off with a boy and given several condoms to fill with water till they broke to determine the best brand. I decided all these sexually liberated types were closet pedophiles who got their jollies projecting their sexual hang ups on to children for their own titillation.

With children and teenagers you have to draw lines and boundaries as well as boundaries for the adults

I would agree. What we're trying to do over here is use the power of peer pressure in a good way.
