It is also troubling because giving girls this vaccine is tacitly giving them permission to engage in immoral behavior.

Let me tell you something about young girls..if they want to have sex, the thought of getting an STD will not stop them. I don't know how I feel about this issue, but I do not believe this will do anything about promiscuity.

Look at premarital sex rates over the past fifty years. With the introduction of birth control pills, the adjudication of infanticide and various other aspects of the "sexual revolution," premarital sex has gone from the rare exception to the decided norm. I find it difficult to believe that all of these efforts to remove the "risks" of teen sex haven't been a factor in increased promiscuity.
