CNS? Really?

Studies published in a special issue of the online journal Sexuality Research and Social Policy by the University of California Press reveal that abstinence-only-until-marriage sex education programs fail to change sexual behavior in teenagers, provide inaccurate information about condoms, and violate human rights principles.

All that study proves is that adolescents who are taught "abstinence only" are more likely to lie about their sexual practices on self-reporting surveys.

I think abstinence-only should be taught as it truly is the only way not to get sexually transmitted diseases. But I think it should not be the only thing taught.

I do believe that there have been several other studies, however, that have concluded abstinence-only does not work.
