June 24th, 2008 4 Comments

Some states are turning down federal funding for sex ed because it requires abstinence only education. Which doesn’t work, never worked, and won’t work.

    Some $50 million has been budgeted for this year, and financially strapped states might be expected to want their share. But many have doubts that the program does much, if any good, and they’re frustrated by chronic uncertainty that it will even be kept in existence. They also have to chip in state money in order to receive the federal grants./

    Well, why wouldn’t any reasonable person not takes these funds.

    “Here. We’ll give you money for a program that doesn’t work if you’ll also spend some of your own money on it.”

    Seems to me any legislature/governor that has been taking this money ought to be out of office an grounds of pure fiscal incompetence alone.

    There is research that says that sex ed results in girls losing their virginities later in life, and less teenage pregnancies and STIs, but I suppose special interests will ID, cigarette and climate change that research away in order to keep their position intact.
