Judging by how much they abstained from using it, it WAS used in writing the article.

The word abstinence was indeed used in the article but ONLY in reference to how heterosexuals fail at abstinence. Here it is:
There is a growing sense that the traditional sloganeering about condoms and club drugs is about as effective as birth-control campaigns that rely on abstinence.

Abstinence? Was the word abstinence used in the article? Yes, it's 14th paragraph/sentence.

Only in a negative way, too lazy to go back and quote it, but someting along the lines of: safe(safer?) sex campaigns stressing condom use have about as much success as birth control campaigns that are abstinence only based
At that wasn't even the stupidest part of the piece!
