Condoms in schools was not about disease or pregnancy. It was about forever shifting debate from IF kids should be having sex to WHEN...
The Sex Positive Agenda opposes abstinence because they believe it to be an unhealthy supression of sexual desires. They see human sexuality as a birthright that all should be experiencing at every stage of life.
