I was reading this on the ny times site

Apparently in North Carolina they have this cool program where kids can text to get TRUE answers to their EXISTING sexual questions. I am glad there is a program to help kids find some answers and not go blindly into bed with this non-effective abstinence crap. I only wish everyone would see that these kids want to be educated instead of treating them like they cant make decisions on their own.

What really bugged me though was the appreciation of this new program by someone quoted because it didn't cause shame and embarrassment. Maybe we should develop a  healthy school environment where students can feel comfortable and strong in their sexuality, rather than make them feel like complete idiots for not knowing about oh idk something they WILL experience in their lives. ugh

further more the article also states that politicians and school officials have for the last 15 YEARS, been debating whether to teach about contraception in the classroom.

Are they serious!? really! 15 years?! what!? did they all forget about what high school is like, or the fact that after high school you go to COLLEGE! Hello what are they debating? Should we tell them about condoms or not? Let's just let one of them get pregos and then pass the word around about contraception for fucks sake!

but on the whole I think that its cool that someone is taking the initiative to set these peeps free!
