Abstinence is a temporary solution. Abstinance is the ideal of certain religions, and should be seen as part of religious studies.

When pre-marital abstinence was advised it is because people would get married at 13-17 years of age, and giving birth at too young an age can be risky.
Boys reach their sexual peak at about 16 years old and so logically, they should be active by then.

Education should be teaching you attitudes for life not just morality for the next few years.

Young people are going to have sex, so they should have the knowledge to make it as safe and pleasurable as possible.

In the early 1980s in Australia Queensland was the only state not to include comprehensive sex education, and teenage pregnancies there were more than twice as high as the other states.

Sex education should include values of self respect, respect of the rights of others to make their own decisions without being judged, and the right to change their minds. Look at the way young girls can be called easy or frigid. They cannot win! Boys are considered perverts if they have their natural desires.

Prolonged abstinence is unatural and can lead to dangerous perversions of normal sexuality. It is this perversion in people of authority that leads to sexuality being judged as bad rather than celebrated as the physical manifestation of love and our greatest gift.

It is better to be informed of all choices n order to make a better decison on where you stand in regards to sex. It is a decison that an individual needs to make for themselves. Those who do choose to have sex need to have choices to be able to protect themselves from getting pregnant and to prevent from getting any diseases like STD's or AIDS in order to stay healthy.

it is been statistically confirmed that powerful, know-how-based intercourse coaching is extra powerful than preventative, abstinence-based coaching. surely, despite if aspects wherein intercourse coaching is in line with abstinence do have a decrease fee of intercourse between youthful, single human beings, the expenses of STDs and teen pregnancies are particularly plenty the comparable because of the fact those people who're having intercourse are employing much less risk-free practices and birth control mutually as doing so. in case you question me, the equipment with extra intercourse and much less issues sounds plenty extra desirable than the equipment with much less intercourse and extra issues.

Abstinence until marriage is the best choice that you can make.
