There is so much misinformation out there these days that sex is still as taboo as it was in this state. Imagine coming from Washington, D.C, where the norm is to teach children not only what a condom was but how to put it on. And now all we are doing in this state is telling them, with religious overtones, that sex is bad because of a b and c. Well. Thats a lie. Sex is good. When done responsibly. But how can we do it responsibly if the previous generation won't mention the word. HELLO! we all know you have sex otherwise we wouldn't be here. Yep. We are a sexually transmitted item... the stork didn't drop us. SO TELL US HOW WE GOT HERE. I love Kelly’s attribution to Bristol Palin’s quote.

These kids are the ones who need compulsory sex ed more than anyone, and I only hope that our education system will finally allow educators to teach a complete health curriculum.
