sex education in public school across the U.S. sucks in general especially in conservative states. This is why those states have such high rate of teen pregnancy and probably STDs and HIV

Wow, so its either teach the kids abstinence or not teach them at all?
I can see that back-firing big style! The more you tell kids not to do something the more they are intrigued....
The truth may be puzzling. It may take some work to grapple with. It may be counterintuitive. It may contradict deeply held prejudices. It may not be consonant with what we desperately want to be true. But our preferences do not determine what's true - Carl Sagan

They think children are a punishment for being sinful.
Which explains why they protect the damn embryo up until birth, then it's free to be a burden on their sinful mother who had sex out of wedlock...
That's the only reason I can fathom why 'abstinence only' or nothing thinking exists -- that the children would serve as a living 'Scarlet Letter' to that damn bitch for not closing her legs because Jeezus...

They should ask Sarah Palin how well preaching abstinence only works.

This is actually hilarious. I'm waiting for statistics in 2020 to say which states have the highst teenage birth rate and abortion rates. I'm putting a $100 on Utah.
