1 in 4 Teen Girls Has Sexual Disease

Now tell me again why I continue to hear people speak against abstinence education? Unprotected teen sex is dangerous. What the head line doesn't say is that nearly 50% of African-American teens as compared to 20% of Latino or Anglo teens has an STD.

What should the church's response be?

STDs are no doubt a scary reality for teenagers and adults alike. As woman reading this article I would like to stress the additional importance of men's awareness of their own sexual health. It frustrates me when I hear constant reminders for women to get check-ups, when men seem to be merely reminded to use a condom. It is the responsibilty of both partners to take charge of their sexual health. Why aren't teenage boys being taught to be as careful and tested as frequently as teenage girls? The STDs come from 2 people engaging in sex, so why isn't this report announcing that there are 3 million boys with STDS?

Excellent question. I wonder where that data is.

Perhaps if President Clinton was not allowed to "redefine" what Sex is then this problem would not be so wide spread.

Thank-You Bill & Hillary

A statistic like 1 in 4 teens having an STD would be an EXCELLENT reason to speak out against abstinence only education.

If that statistic is even true, it would indicate to any rational purpose the need for a larger emphasis on safe sex education, getting tested, using protection, etc.

Generations of trying to shove abstinence and oppressive sex moralities down everyone's throat obviously hasn't worked. It's created an atmosphere where there's too much shame around buying and carrying protection, where kids can't go to parents and adults for advice or support on safe behavior because they already know they'll be in trouble for being sexually active.

Maybe it's time to give honesty and reason a shot.
