Being misinformed due to the 'abstinence only' sex-ed. I wouldn't blame it on the teen, but on the education system, or the teen's parents who can't be bothered to teach birds and bees.
- gdwatson 11y agoMisinformed how? It's not as if abstinence-only education claims babies come by stork.
- habitue 11y agoMisinformed because they don't inform the kids about birth control. It's a sin of omission

- mikeash 11y agoIt often claims things like condoms being ineffective against STDs or all sorts of birth control having far greater failure rates than in reality.
- CaptSpify 11y agoI was also taught: never carry a condom, because then you might be tempted to have sex. Instead of understanding that it's going to happen anyway, they teach that it shouldn't happen, so don't prepare for it.
