Didn't read the article, 'cause I didn't wanna register, but . . .

Makes sense to me.

Nobody ever got pregnant because of oral sex. Well, I suppose a person -could- but it would be a really wierd route.

There ya go...I fixed the link. I agree it makes sense..but there are other risks that are out there besides teenage pregnancy. STD?

I find the amount of money spent crazy.

You can still get STD's... I don't understand why they think that's better than teaching condoms or abstinence.

I'm thinking that cruising high schools in London just became THAT much more attractive.

Without reading the article it's difficult to know, but I assume they also advise the use of condoms.

Abstinence is just not practicle (nor much fun).

Hmmm. I'm assuming this is high school. I wonder if the girls need any stand up models. I'd be happy to move over to England. I know a few Solicitors that could hook me up with places to stay.

I can see your father/daughter talk.

"Why wait, it's just not much fun."

I think it's a viable thing to teach your children after all even if they don't die from std's some of em never go away.

Well, perhaps this is among the reasons I don't have children.

Seriously though, sex -IS- fun. It's a gift. To create fear of that in your child for whatever reason is a disservice to their long term happiness.

It scares me when we agree on something.

Thats a stupid way of dealing with a problem. Why dont we teach kids how to roll joints so they dont go ahead and snort crack?

Or set them on fire as a way to teach them about matches? Oh wait, that would be extreme and not even be a comparable example.

Let's assume that some, just a few, kids will be having sex. Then let's come up with a rational way to deal with it.

Your analogy is not very good because sex, in and of itself, is not harmful or illegal. In fact, it's a vital part of the human experience.

We -assume- that at some point in time everyone will have sex if for no other reason than procreation, but certainly the majority will have it for recreation as well. In fact, some people may forego the concept of procreation altogether yet still sex will still be an integral part of their lives.

The point is, sex is not something to be feared.

I'm not really sure you can say the same thing about snorting crack.

Of course sex is fun and I don't believe it's scaring the children to tell them to wait or if they're ready then use proper protection, it's a fact of life.

Of course the American way is to ignore delayed gratification, cause if it's fun I want it now!

I don't think I agree with your philosophy I think it can be taught that it's fun and worth waiting for. But it's been a while since I was a teenager and things are different now....

I hope that they teach them a good technique. There is nothing worse than being on a promise all day and then having a crap blowjob.

A video camera as they practice on cucumbers will raise a few thousand $ from the candid camera shows.

Sheep in england! could they have hoof and Mouth disease.??? Can it be transmited to humans? would anyone admit to it.

"Warning do not get a B.J. from a sheep you due to possiable adverse health effects"

This is the USA according to our highest level of our Gov't (4 yr's ago) a B.J. is not sex! So oral whatever you call it is not sex!

This is the USA we are always right the rest of the world is wrong.

Boy, this statement and your avatar go hand in hand.

So let's tell the kids not to do it, and then turn our backs and assume they won't. It just CAN't be happening. We told them not to. It's not like those media pressures to grow up fastre are gonna have any effect. Those teenage pregnancies, well there not all that common. And they happen to those "other" people.

He let me know if I'm laying the sarcasim on too thick now.

Oral sex lessons to cut rates of teenage pregnancy

Mark Townsend
Sunday May 9, 2004
The Observer

Encouraging schoolchildren to experiment with oral sex could prove the most effective way of curbing teenage pregnancy rates, a government study has found.
Pupils under 16 who were taught to consider other forms of 'intimacy' such as oral sex were significantly less likely to engage in full intercourse, it was revealed.

Britain's teenage pregnancy rate is the highest in Europe. In 2002 there were 39,286 teen pregnancies recorded. The government has spent more than £60 million to tackle the problem but so far failed to halt the rise.

A sex education course developed by Exeter University trains teachers to talk to teenagers about 'stopping points' before full sex.

Now an unpublished government-backed report reveals that a trial of the course has been a success. Schoolchildren, particularly girls, who received such training developed a 'more mature' response to sex.

The study by the National Foundation for Educational Research found youngsters were 'less likely to be sexually active' than peers who received traditional forms of sex education, dispelling the fears of family campaigners who believe such methods actually arouse the sexual interest of teenagers.

Now the government will recommend the scheme, called A Pause, to schools throughout England and Wales following the success of the trial in 104 schools where sexual intercourse among 16-year-olds fell by up to 20 per cent, according to Dr John Tripp of the Department of Child Health at the University of Exeter, who helped to design the course.

Teachers who sign up to the course are primed to deal with queries from pupils on all kinds of sexual experience. Those behind the course stress the scheme does not suggest teenagers experiment with oral sex. Instead they say A Pause promotes the message that other forms of physical intimacy are safer than full intercourse.

'It teaches people assertiveness skills and that they should be only as intimate as they feel comfortable with,' said Tripp.

A Department for Education and Skills spokesman said the report's verdict would be made available to all schools. 'All teachers respect peer-reviewed material, and this will help influence their decision,' he said.

How about we "Encouraging schoolchildren to experiment with oral sex" instead of discouraging it?

Yeah sorry, I think you guys are correct. The best was to prevent teenage pregnancy is to introduce them to oral sex. Last time I checked oral sex will lead to sex, kinda like my drug analogy. Do you guys think encouraging sexual activity will prevent sexual activity?

Pot leads to harder drugs. Oral sex leads to sex. This is what you should get from this comparison. What exactly is wrong with my example?

Pot leads to harder drugs

This falacy has been admitted to by the most highest ranking anit-drug crusaders in the federal gov't.

Pot does not lead to harder drugs. This myth is nothing more then a "scare tactic" used in the 80's, and has been admitted to as such by the people who said it.
