Everyone knows the best way to reduce teen pregnancy rates is to tell teens to Just Don't Do Sex, and they will say, "Oh, OK, then we will not do sex," and that takes care of that, the end. In those extremely rare circumstances, however, when that doesn't work, it can be effective to teach teens about safe sex and to arm them with contraception. The Colorado Family Planning Initiative, for example,
A teenager not getting pregnant ALSO is the ULTIMATE waiting period for an abortion since they're never going to need one. Duh? Republicans? Holy shit.
I can't totally hate on teen pregnancy because my mom was 19 when she had me and of course we're supposed to panic as much about legal adults who happen to be teenagers having kids as we are to panic about 14yos who do. But ANYONE ought to be able to control their own reproduction if their bodies are capable of reproducing. You know?
While we're at it, do none of those yo-yos stop to think that the teenager you keep ignorant about sex today will be the adult who knows nothing about sex tomorrow? They're seeing young adults ENTERING MEDICAL SCHOOL who do not know how male and female reproductive systems work. That is terrifying.
But then I really think the GOP is deep in cahoots with the adoption industry. Why does no one ever follow this up... I mention it nearly everywhere, sooner or later. It's like it falls down a memory hole or something. Seriously, if you follow the money on crisis pregnancy centers, eventually you run into an adoption agency or an adoption advocacy group. And adoption's the one answer that makes any sense to the question of "Why do Republicans oppose contraception, oppose abortion, and want to do away with welfare so parents can't care for the babies they're forced to have?" Because the parents AREN'T supposed to care for the babies. They're supposed to let Republicans sell them to other Republicans. Duh.
Subsidizing sex? An IUD is contraception, not a aphrodisiac! The "moral decline" from safe sex is far better than high rates of teen pregnancy. So, why do Republicans cut education and welfare that teens need to support a family? Sorry, teens, you should've had protection, if children didn't starve then welfare princesses will have SEX to get pregnant, and because bootstraps! Republicans are evil.

nope, but if he is equated to this sentence, sorry.
I have an idea of acceptable sexy times that I think Republicans can embrace: Republicans, go fuck yourselves....

It *is* the primary reason to have sex. It just so happens that the secondary reason is so much fun that it triggers sexual activity far more often.

I talked to some friends. They say yes.
Or "regift" them to some pervert.
In my day, the Navy gave us enlisted eye-glasses that did that.
So what's your excuse, since you seem to like to whine about being a poor, single mother?
