Sex is only for the rich in the US

(Lust is STDs)

You look at the maps, lower income areas, lower education areas are more likely to have higher teenage pregnancy rates, higher sexually transmitted diseases rates too.

No shit!!!

Christianity does not disdain sex. Christianity disdains perversion.

Condums are available in every drug store, convenience store, and gas station in the country. If you can't afford $1 for a condum then you have no business screwing. You libs are so full of shit.

And sex is perversion? So goes the tune.

Answer this question. Why do you think STD rates, teenage pregnancy rates are higher in areas with lower education levels and lower average income.

Does a 14 year old have any business screwing around? Not really.

Do they do it? Definitely. Damn, in my area a girl was preggers at 13.

You must be from Kentucky......

I agree with Redfish.

Heheheheheheh. When I agree with Redfish, you guys are in big trouble.

It proves that you are not as ignorant as you seem to be.

The single parent issue is more complicated by the fact that women have been gaining more independence. They are more able to sustain themselves without being dependent on a man to provide.

This isn't entirely accurate. Your last sentence is accurate as far as it goes. When you complete the picture by noting that women are marrying the government instead of men, then that seriously undercuts the conclusion of independence in your first sentence.

Thus it is difficult to prove unequivocally that the loosening of social mores is the biggest or single cause of the rise in single parent households.

Women have a complicated reproductive strategy. On the one hand they are attracted to "dynamic" men (CADS) and on the other hand they desire "reliable" men to look after their family (DADS.) With strict social mores in place, women who hitched their wagons to "dynamic" men soon found themselves abandoned and living a life of misery. Women were therefore strongly incentivized to seek out "reliable" men but this left them feeling unfulfilled, the "what am I missing" feeling was very strong.

When social mores were relaxed, this freed women to chase the "dynamic" men and with welfare in place, the consequences of abandonment were socialized onto society, mostly "reliable" men, who now in addition to paying to raise their own family are also paying to raise the bastard sprogs of deadbeats.

The Pill has also loosened the chains which used to restrict women. No longer does birth control revolve around the male and his unreliable condom.

True.

The OP surmises this is wholly an access problem, but I don't buy that for a second.

I agree. From a study which looked at NYC teens. Here we have an educational environmental which exposes all teens to the same EDUCATION but we see vast differences in how teens process and use that information:

Teen pregnancy rates in New York City (NYC) are consistently higher than in the United States (US) overall, particularly among blacks and Hispanics and within poor neighborhoods. The latest national teen pregnancy rate for 2005 indicates that there are 71 pregnancies per 1,000 girls aged 15 to 19 each year,1 while the 2007 NYC rate for residents ages 15–19 was about 83 per 1,000.1 Within NYC, there are significant disparities in the teen pregnancy rate by race/ethnicity and neighborhood.2 In 2007, teen pregnancy rates among NYC residents were more than four times higher among NYC black (122/1,000) and Hispanic teens (114/1,000) than among white teens (21/1,000),1 and the city’s lowest teen pregnancy rate was in Staten Island (51/1,000),1 where 70% of the population is white and the poverty rate is only 10%. . . .

Black students were most likely to be currently sexually active (35.4%), followed by Hispanics (32.7%) and whites (23.4%). The proportion of students who were currently sexually active increased with age and grade level. They were highest among female students aged 18 and up (59.6%) and 12th graders (48.3%), and lowest among students under age 15 (16.8%) and 9th graders (22.4%). . . .

Compared with whites, Hispanics were more likely to report using no method or “not sure” (23.0% vs. 10.7%) the last time they had sex. Use of hormonal contraception was low in all groups of sexually active females (11.6% among whites, 7.8% among blacks, and 7.5% among Hispanics). . . .

A study of Baltimore teens found that preventing pregnancy was the driving force for contraceptive use among white teens, while Mexican-American and African-American teens described motivation to use condoms as protection against an STD, particularly HIV/AIDS.23 If teen girls are not specifically motivated to prevent a pregnancy, use of condoms may lapse when there is no perceived risk of contracting an STI.
​

Education is a black box process. We have a student BEFORE they receive Sex Ed and then we have a student AFTER they've received Sex Ed. When we parse the students by race, we see that the black box doesn't produce uniform outcomes.

People act on WHO THEY ARE. We, all of us, are not New Soviet Men, creatures of ideology and reason. How do you teach black kids to delay the onset of sexual activity so that they match white kids? How do you teach them to be more careful with respect to birth control? There's tons of free birth control in NYC, but while you can lead a horse to water, you can't make that horse drink and that's exactly what's going on here - the information has been made available to all students in NYC and there is plenty of free BC for the taking, but the kids don't act on what they know and what is available.

A freaking condom costs about .85 cents. You can get them free in some high schools. What else does the radical left want to whine about?
