Let’s Talk About Sex, Baby

The number of states refusing federal money for “abstinence-only” sex education programs jumped sharply in the past year as evidence mounted that the approach is ineffective.
At least 14 states have either notified the federal government that they will no longer be requesting the funds or are not expected to apply, forgoing more than $15 million of the $50 million available, officials said.
Well, there you go.
So, let me get this straight…school officials are not convinced that that abstinence only education doesn’t work? Gee…what gave it away? Centuries of people having sex and exploring sexuality as soon as the hormones rage at puberty maybe?
