Unsafe Sex on the Rise

I know I shouldn't be enjoying something like the rise of STDs as much as I am right at this moment, but if there's one thing I love more than sex, it's...well, there is this one other thing, but I was going to say "being right." Specifically:

"Some experts blame eight years of abstinence-only education—the only sex ed that was federally funded under President George W. Bush—for not only failing to inform younger women about the dangers of unprotected oral sex, but also for actually fueling its popularity. "A lot of teenagers reduced the message to 'I must abstain from the kind of sex that makes a baby,'" says Nack. For young women, oral sex pleased their partners and preserved their virginity, as did anal sex, another risky sexual behavior that's becoming more prevalent. According to the CDC's National Survey of Family Growth, nearly 35 percent of women ages 25 to 44 engage in anal sex.

"Women are complying with anal sex to the point that they're damaging themselves," says Dr. Drew, who notes that today's young men are obsessed with the practice thanks to its prominence in porn. "No matter how much it hurts, the women are like, 'Well, I want to make him happy.' It's the most bizarre thing in the world." "

I love it! Not because of an interest in anal sex, but because this means the moral majority has been actively promoting sodomy! Come on, that's bloody funny. No pun intended. Also, that's a great argument against porn, eh Mr. Ron Jeremy?

Oh well. Such is life, I suppose.
