I'm pretty sure media has way more of an effect on sexual activty in teenagers than the availability of condoms. Also, children exposed to pornography are more likely to become sexually active at a younger age than children who are not. We're a society who firmly believes in "out of sight, out of mind" who continues to ignore the problem. The signals sent to children are that it's okay to screw whomever you want with absolutely zero consequences. I really wish it would become un-taboo and someone could set them straight.

If there were no condoms there would be more unwanted pregnancy. Guaranteed.

I hate it when schools only teach abstinence. Kids are going to screw around so why not teach them how to do it safely?

@Gpa Gohan: Don't you get paid for plasma? If so, what are you whining about?

I do, and I wasn't whining, just saying that if your scared of 3shots over x ammount of time, think about how it would be getting a shot twice a week, in which the needle stays in your arm for 45~60min.

Sex being taboo in America isnt helping anything, honestly. I feel like the FCC is like overprotective mothers at the PTA or something. I honestly just wanna slap them around. I think we'd find a major decline in the problems with had now if 1) they put it out in the open(not taboo), and 2) make kids go through more than just a quater or semester in sex ed. Hell at the very least make it more comprehensive.

I also have to disagree Waff, 'least in my case. I was exposed to pornogaphy before I was 11 and I remain a virgin to this day =\
