Right question...


Having seen these statisitics and gone through the whole link (and there are plenty of other stats like this as its true...


Why the hell dont' all countries especailly the US chuck out all their sex ed programmes and carbon copy the dutch system all the way though and if parents try and withdraw their kids forcibly bring them to the classes and give the parents a night in jail or worse with a dunce hat supperglued on their head.


As er the dutch system appears to be the best and works and is not a single lesson.

Oh and they cover absteinnace programs being ineffective as it was found the kids may delay a little then like a pressure cooker blowing make up for lost t

Example

gonorrhea

US 578 per 100,000 compared to

Netherlands 7.7

Thats a ratio or 7.7 to 578 ...74 times as bad.


Also other european counties like germany and prettty much as good as have similar systems...


And unsurpringinly far from preacing absteinance and sexaul morality etc...


are very open about sex, prostituion is legal and well regulated to protect teh girls and others, out of the way of homes, a lot less violence but more nudity on tv etc etc... Ie more open and realxed = less pregnancies.


More prepressive and into absteinance and morlas = more teen pregnancies and stds.

Plus absteince programes where found to delay things a bit then like a pressure cooker building pressure... the kids on discovering sex and kissing suddenly made up for lost time and many more got pregnant due to lack of contraception education along with masses of stds...


So absteinance teaching infact does not work as unnatural

*********************************

People do make proposals but its parents, relgious gropusp and tabloids who supper it so you need people who can fight them

Cutie girl care to explain what you mean that proof showing why we should change to that sex ed method that does not matter...

Given all the pain unwanted pregnancies cause...

Answer 1

i did nt even read it hehe

Answer 2

Let me start by saying, I agree with you intellectually. I think that all of the U.S. needs an effective sex education system that starts earlier, is more comprehensive, and continues, on a more sophisticated (and practical) level right up until graduation. Again I think the Dutch model is a good one, especially in its reaction to and use of education to prevent HIV infection. That having been said, how do you "force" anyone to do the course. Government (at least in our country) does not have that coercive power, and I do not want it to, even if is to "force" things I agree with (like sex ed,) I do not think the government should have the power to "force" people to submit to something they do not believe in.
But beyond the question of "force" is the larger question of a false analogy. The U.S. cannot be compared to the Dutch because:
A larger more diverse population makes such direct comparisons ineffective.
In other words, what would those tables look like if the comparison was U.S. / E.U. where they would have to include the statistics of countries like Latvia with a "less sophisticated" sexual culture than Holland, or Poland where religion plays a major role in determining educational issues (as it does in some parts of the U.S., but not so much in Holland.)
Finally, educational policy is determined locally by school boards. So some districts, like San Francisco School district can and do decided to adapt the Dutch model while others don't. So this brings us to our last point:
1) If you think that the Dutch model offers a good program for sex-ed (and we agreed that it does.)
2) You live in an area where the school district does not have a good sex-ed program.
3) Then go the school board meetings (they are announced each week in the newspaper) they are public meetings. Convince the school board members to use, study, look at, evaluate your ideas.

Answer 3

Well, why don't you do something about it to get the system in place here instead of griping about it? Start a movement, do a little legal research, and make a proposal to the school boards.
