How Abstinence Is Taught In Some Public Schools
Montgomery County, Maryland is teaching abstinence in it’s sex education classess. The problem is the definition of abstinence. There definition describes 3 kinds of abstinence:
- No intercourse
- withdrawal (ejaculation outside of the body)
- rhythm (no intercourse during ovulation)
I’m sorry, but abstinence means abstaining or not doing something. In this particular usage, it means not having sex. Methods 2 and 3 are not abstinence. (Hat tip: Pillage Idiot)
