An unexpected pregnancy as a teen can be a devastating occurrence. It might change the entire course of his or her life to discover they are about to become parents. That is why it is so important for teens that are sexually active to learn the basics about having safe sex and protecting themselves from STDs and unintended teen pregnancy. I think that it is a good idea to offer young teens the different birth control options available such as the commonly known birth control pills or condoms. Also, today we have other options like the birth control patch, Depo-Provera (shot), female condoms, and IUD’s (inter-uterine device) to help lower and prevent teen pregnancy and the spread of
Some anti- pornography debates would talk about being sexually exploited, and that payment for sex is and will always be unethical. While one might say that pornography is harmful and severely degrading to women. A different perspective would be that pornography is art, and can be pleasurable for people. Utilitarianism beliefs are that pornography would be morally correct as long as it was for the greater good in the greatest number of
Some people were against the idea of abstinence because they said this would put their kids at risk by “providing a fear-based program that gave children incomplete, inaccurate, biased an sectarian information”. A women from Planned Parenthood referred to it as a “trick” to the students (517). Limbaugh disapproves of this opinion, and says it is “absurd” since he believes that this approach is honest and provides student with information about health endangerment. Students will learn about the truth of a sexually active
Opening minds or closing them shut depending upon what the teen takes from the birds and the bees conversation. “Talk about sex early and often […talking] openly about sex in an age appropriate way, you can teach our teenager how to behave responsibly”(Teen Pregnancy Prevention 1). The intention to even speak to a teenager about sex is solely good. Adults want to give teens, as much information about sex to help them understand it. This knowledge is not only being offered in the school and socially but also in the household.
Many teenagers are going to be sexually active regardless, and this model simply doesn’t accommodate to this fact or even acknowledge it. Students of today need a sexual education model that will provide them with the tools they need to be safe and healthy, and abstinence-only just isn’t it. Students are missing out on valuable education that could possibly prevent an unwanted pregnancy or deadly STD. Clearly, something needs to be changed about
The comprehensive program is the best method in teaching teen’s sexual education. Comprehensive programs teach safe sex and promote abstinence while abstinence-only programs just teach to abstain from sex until marriage. Like stated earlier abstinence is affective but teens most likely will act against it. The best option would be to promote abstinence and teach the safe ways to engage in sex if it comes down to that point. By letting teens try and figure out sex on their own only increases the risk of STDs and pregnancy.
* Smacking you * Forcing you to have sex or perform a sexual act. * Grabbing your face to make you look at them. * Sexual abuse * Sexual abuse refers to any action that pressures or coerces someone to do something sexually they don't want to do. It can also refer to behaviour that impacts a person's ability to control their sexual activity or the circumstances in which sexual activity occurs, including oral sex, rape or restricting access to birth control and condoms. * It is important to know that just because the victim “didn’t say no,” doesn’t mean that they meant “yes.” When someone does not resist an unwanted sexual advance, it doesn’t mean that they consented.
When schools pass items such as condoms around, kids can easily get the impression that it’s okay to use them. In this sentence he is trying to reach out and appeal to the parents, and older adults who have the same feeling as he does. Limbaugh believes that the distribution of condoms is not only promoting kids to have sex, but is also giving them the idea that condoms prevent all the consequences of sex. In the second paragraph Limbaugh states that, “Kids will have sex anyway, and that this logic leads to schools providing drugs, and bullet proof vests.” Although providing drugs may seem a little extreme, and maybe a little crazy, I would have to agree with Limbaugh. If schools are handing out condoms to students, what would the difference be if they are handing out drugs?
Surveys could be a good thing with the questionnaires and interviews if all the people were honest during the survey, or people could have been dishonest and didn’t want to reveal the truth maybe because they feel ashamed for masturbating at a young age or being sexually active before marriage. There are four different types of methods: case studies, survey, direct observation, and experimental method. There are advantages and disadvantages to each method. The advantages for Kinsey’s survey research method are people were more open to talk about sex and if Kinsey interviewed other ethnicities, he would have had different results. The disadvantages are that Kinsey only interviewed white, middle class and college
The main plot of the movie was for the main characters, a group of boys, to lose their virginity to secure a higher social status and these false depictions of people, given by this movie and the media in general, can pressure boys to feel like they need to have sex in order to be popular. Television also makes sexual health appear funny and embarrassing for adolescents, causing humiliation (Hust, Brown, and Engle 14). The fear of becoming embarrassed because of the image that learning about sex is a shameful aspect of growing up, actually keeps teens from seeking the sexual health information they need (Hust, Brown, and Engle
