Promiscuity is damaging psychologically and bad for the state of the soul.

"Nor were people surprised at the huge change in young girls who were giving as much oral sex as they were receiving, thereby confirming the transformation in young women from sexual prey to sexual predators. "

Actually, I'm willing to bet that boys are pressuring them in both regards, and they are being exploited in both cases.

If promiscuity is damaging to the soul, then I'm the most soulful person in the world!

I think that broadstroking this study is dangerous. I'm a 25 year old guy, and I've been sexually inactive for almost 2 years. I can easily say that I'm suffering from certain levels of depression and loneliness. Perhaps it's the opposite with men, but it seems that a loving relationship, complete with affectionate copulation, would do me a world of good right now... more than any anti-depressant (which I refuse to take) could ever.

Yes, and in addition, teens are not emotionally prepared OR mature, enough to handle the emotions that result from having any kind of sex. In fact, the media, and the schools deny it's existence, as if saying it isn't so, will prevent that emotional "backlash". Especially girls, but even some boys, expect to be loved, or at least some sort of loyalty, when they "do a boy this great favor, or let him do something with her" When love does not come, they get depressed. It's an emotional thing, born of instinct and the natural order of things, and has no rationale, therefore "libs" can deny it's existence all they want, it won't change it.
