Except the population is not going to stay abstinent. You're ignoring that fact again.
Why won't you answer my questions?

Do you have an example of a sex ed course that does not present the facts, risks, and potential consequences in an accurate and objective manner? Mine certainly did the job well. If there's an example of a curriculum that you would like to discuss, we can do so, but I'm not interested in discussing your suppositions of what such courses fail to do.Lol, that isn't teaching them. Its just throwing a sentence at them. Teaching them is showing them the impact of the choices, fully, not the mangled ideology of planned parenthood.
Are you really telling me that you're 44 years old and aren't aware that you can catch certain STDs without having sexual relations? And this is supposed to convince me that we shouldn't be teaching people about these things?Please tell me how you catch STDs when abstaining from Sex...

Are you really telling me that you're 44 years old and aren't aware that you can catch any STD without having sexual relations?
This. ^ This is why everyone should receive comprehensive sex education as a young person.
I'm not conflating anything. Both Abstinence and Contraception rely on people actually acting on the advice.
And I have already noted that the criticisms should not be at Abstinence itself but at how it is taught - if taught badly of course it will not work....just as if Contraception is taught badly people won't use that either.
No, you are completely, 100% wrong, and please don't go around telling people such dangerous nonsense.You misunderstand.
If you and your husband are abstinent, there is no way you will catch an STD.

I mean, I can almost understand his position now, if all this time he's been under the impression that abstinence is a catch-all solution.All this time I thought the Abstinence-only crowd was lying to us -- turns out they honestly don't know a thing.
You misunderstand.
If you and your husband are abstinent, there is no way you will catch an STD.
Now, if there is a way to teach Abstinence-only without resorting to these tactics, I'm all ears.
You can only say "Don't do it!" so many times before the kids tune out.
You can only hide information for so long before the kids find it for themselves.
You misunderstand.
If you and your husband are abstinent, there is no way you will catch an STD.
Contact with other people's blood, sharing needles, kissing someone (even non-sexually), drinking after someone, being born vaginally and having an STD transmitted from mother to child, your mother having a high HIV viral load when she was pregnant and passing it on to a child, etc.
My GRANDMOTHER gave me mono by sipping out of my drink, and got it from my cousin the same way. I have since become obsessive about making sure no one touches my drinks or food.
The irony of the misinformation coming from someone who's promoting abstinence-only education is hilarious, though.That is so shockingly inaccurate it isn't funny.
I'm including STDs that can be contracted through sexual activities besides intercourse, since I'm not sure how you personally define "abstinence."
Get real. None of those things are protected by contraception so are not part of the discussion. Abstinence doesn't protect you from viruses. It protects you from diseases that are being transmitted sexually.
Changing the definition is moving the goalposts and dishonest.
You asked how you could get an STD while practicing abstinence, and I gave you the reasons.
Uh... some STDs ARE viruses. HIV is a virus. Herpes is a virus. Do you seriously not know what causes these diseases?
Also, barrier contraception DOES protect against STDs, with the exception of herpes and HPV if the area of a flare up is not covered by the barrier. Source: https://www.health.ny.gov/diseases/aids/consumers/condoms/faqs.htm
Abstinence means NO sex acts.
And see above for the rest.
We aren't addressing the issues with contraception. We're addressing your claim that abstinence will protect you against STDs 100%.Get real. None of those things are protected by contraception so are not part of the discussion.
Wait, you expect people to wait until marriage to kiss? Your dichotomy of saints and harlots puts couples who kiss in the latter group?Abstinence means NO sex acts.

How would he if he was never taught it and he never sought out the information on his own? Every word he says validates comprehensive sex ed.Do you seriously not know what causes these diseases?
The problem is if contraception is taught well, it's still not going to work. Again, some people are going to have unprotected sex no matter how much you tell them they shouldn't.
See. Cuts both ways.
So what you are saying is that people are too stupid and impulsive for abstinence only education and should be allowed contraception because its easier for the bovine to use? In effect, yes.
I listed them earlier, go back and look.
