Told us about condoms put one on a kind of dildo (it was more like a plastic tube theat they had just stuck to a pice of card) and some other stuff that I carnt really remember cos I wasnt paying attention.
Oh and it dont help us that much cos we have lots of tenage pregnancys I think we have the highest in europe I know it was one of the highest.
There was one lass near me that got pregnant at 13 and got the school to get an abortion arranged for her and she had it and neither she or the school bothered to tell the girls mother. Then a coupple of months later she was on the news again cos she was pregnant again but this time she had decided to keep it. [addsig]

fact #1. you cannot prevent kids from engaging in sex.
fact #2. sexual encounters with kids last between a few minutes and a few seconds.
fact #3. if kids don't wanna get caught, they won't.
fact #4. the path to enlightenment is through education.
teach kids the proper ways to have relationships, that does not involve sex. teach children that there is a proper way to have sex. in that order.

Not only education, but self-confidence is necessary to ward off peer pressure from having sex. Most of the times, the least mature and the least emotionally ready individuals end up getting pregnant because they yeild to sexual pressure to get extra attention (from boys).
It's a difficult problem to solve, but a strong healthy mind is the best start.

you see, thats an entirely different discussion all together. we could save it for another thread i suppose, but i feel it is related enough to warrant doing it now.
todays society teaches that each child is special. a true enough comment, but parents carry it way to far. you have kids today that have been told their entire life how pretty they are, or how its ok to do this or that because they are special. the truth of the matter is, these children reach adulthood filled with these fairy tale beliefs and become quite unstable, or worse, violent because life is not treating them in their accustomed fashions. these kids were never pretty, they were never unique at all, but brainwashing them has created this thing... person that believes, they are.
society today because of these habits has created a whole generation of selfish, self centered individuals whom think the whole world is theirs.
anyways.. some of these people are the prey, and some become the predator that are getting pregnant and getting them pregnant.

most guys i know just want to ahve sex so they can SAY they did... And yes orph most of our problems today start with selfishness. just about EVERY problem we have can be tracerouted to GREED and SELFISHNESS. I am quite possible the most religious and conservative snarkpitter under the age of 30 (and quite possible over too) and I can honestly say, that less and less people are turning to God and more and more problems are rearing thier ugly heads at the same time. You can see that to someone like me who is religious and stuff, that this only makes sense according to my beliefs. I DONt wanna start the "religion debate" I just wanted to EXPLAIN my point ov view. I tihnk all the teen pregnancies and ALL problems can be attributed to SOMEONE'S selfishness or greed.
BTW: For some reason I know a lot about anatomy and stuff and it seems that i may have read somewhere that not only do women have MORE nerve endings in thier genitalia, but they are more closely packed. (am i right about this Satchmo?) So how oculd they NOT enjoy sex more than us.
But, conversely, if they DID enjoy it more than us, then why the heck did MALES get stuck with the DRIVE!?

Yes, I need to Good Lord to keep me from impregnating the female population of my high school. ![]()
It's not about good or evil, selfishness or altruism. It's about having innocent fun or being stupid enough to get a girl pregnant. It's condoms we need, not Jesus.
In any case, morality has no necessary connection with religion.
And yes, children should be taught not only that they are special, but to be downright selfish and proud. You have no idea of my generation's insecurity, mostly because none of us feel strong enough to admit it exists. A good friend of mine once refused to eat solid food for three days because a friend called her fat. Another guy I knew came close to suicide because a girl didn't like him. I myself spent a year or so deeply ashamed of my own emotional problems, ones which I now recognize I had no control over.
Are you going to tell me my generation is too proud, too self-centered? No. We put on ourselves and have put on us too much guilt for what's not our fault, too many standards we cannot reach, and, worst of all, too many ill-conceived, ignorant ideas of how to solve our problems. We do not believe we are "special," nor that we are "pretty." We are weak and ashamed of our weakness. Excessive pride is not our problem at all.

Parents should teach kids that they are special, but they shouldn't hide them from the truths of life. I see so many kids that are so out of touch with reality becuase their parents wont let them see that the real world is full of sex, drugs, and violence.
So here we are, not knowing the full truth about life untill its dropped in our laps... and then we have the media. MTV, any network tv, etc. We see these people and relationships that are so faulse. Have you ever watched one of those teen disney shows? That is nothing like real life. We are growing up with such f**ked up mixed up signals that there is no reality anymore.
I'm a lucky one, I had the right mix of parental controle and freedome, and the right exposure to real life.
I think school should teach classes that explane relationships, sex, and protection...

What age group your targeting that statement out? Just out of curiousity, because I'm 16/17 and well, sexual encounters among the friends I have vary from 45 seconds to 2 hours (on average).

What an "interesting" thread, I must say. Schools should show those graphic pictures of STDs in sex education since that made every guy in the class swear that they'd never have sex (until a few weeks later). And then yeah, talk about sex, though personally I'd be both amused and disturbed if I found my 2-year old fondling himself.

the first timers mostly. but generally it could be anyone prior to 18 i suppose.
i hate to point out but you confirmed my statement. 45 seconds to 120 minutes is well within my ranges. although, i am betting that 2 hours is a boast, since even i cannot often stretch sex into that range ![]()

I dunno what adaware thing you may have, but on a personal level, ever topic i read,see, or hear turns itself into a sexual context topic.
maybe its me, but anything at all can be construed into a sexual term or thought.
perhaps you need to get out more and your monitor will display correctly when you return, you can always take matters into your own hands. ![]()

2 Hours was my first, think it a boast if you will (which knowing you probably will
EDIT: LOL! Just realised in the last line I called myself a "wanker", way to go and insult myself
