The Center for Disease Control and Prevention released a new study showing that most teens are virgins – contrary to propaganda disseminated by sex-education giant Planned Parenthood.
“This study has huge significance for our nation’s public and even private schools – many of whom have been regurgitating Planned Parenthood’s dangerously inaccurate sex-education curriculum,” said Judie Brown, president of American Life League (ALL), the nation’s largest grassroots pro life group.
According to an ALL press release, the study found that in the two-year period between 2006 and2008, 58 percent of never-married teen girls and 57 percent of never-married teen boys between the ages of 15 and 19 reported that they had never had sexual intercourse.
Even more significant is the reason most often cited by the teens for abstaining for sex – that it is “against religion or morals.”
Entitled Teenagers in the United States: Sexual Activity, Contraceptive Use, and Child Bearing, National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG), the report debunks Planned Parenthood’s constant mantra that most teens will not abstain, ALL reports.
“This ideology is illustrated by the words of Planned Parenthood Federation of America vice president of medical affairs, Vanessa Cullins, from a You Tube video directed toward teens: ‘…admit that you are a sexually active individual like most of us, and that you are going to have sex and that you need to take precautions in order to stay healthy.’
“The report builds a solid case against Planned Parenthood’s promotion of sex education devoid of morality or religious influence – except for the secular humanism espoused by Planned Parenthood,” ALL reports.
The report also revealed that “the vast majority of never married teenagers had not had intercourse in the month before the survey (76% of females and 79% of males, unchanged from 2002.)”
The number of “sexually experienced” teens peaked in 1988 at 51 percent. The steady decline in sexually active teens coincides with the popularity and availability of abstinence education in the 1990s and into the 2000s.
