GOP to twentysomethings: No sex for you
 
From this story:

___

The federal government's "no sex without marriage" message isn't just for kids anymore.

Now the government is targeting unmarried adults up to age 29 as part of its abstinence-only programs, which include millions of dollars in federal money that will be available to the states under revised federal grant guidelines for 2007.

___

On the plus side, there's a lovely war you can fight in ...

I don't care what your political ideology is, how can people support the current GOP?

But Wade Horn, assistant secretary for children and families at the Department of Health and Human Services, said the revision is aimed at 19- to 29-year-olds because more unmarried women in that age group are having children.

Government data released last month show that 998,262 births in 2004 were to unmarried women 19-29, the ages with the most births to unmarried women.

"The message is 'It's better to wait until you're married to bear or father children,' " Horn said. "The only 100% effective way of getting there is abstinence."

Similarly, the only 100% effective way to avoid airline terrorism is to shut down all the airlines. The fallacy is obvious.

And secondly, abstinence is NOT the only 100% effective way to prevent unwanted pregnancies. ...isn't this the party that thinks that homosexuality is a choice? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
