Oh my word...I just had to explain to co-workers what was so dang funny...didn't come up with a good reason or excuse.
Sex is not sacred, it's just sex. I'd rather a school give the option to obtain condoms than to give the BS speech about waiting until marriage. A majority of students will roll their eyes and do it anyway. Someone that wants to wait, will wait, regardless. Getting handed a piece of rubber will not brainwash them into thinking that they should have sex.
If my kids are home from college they know that they are expected to be home for supper, it is very important to my wife and I. Matter of fact that is exactly where we had our sex talks with the kids, at the dinner table. I still bring it up from time to time just to needle them.
Someone who wants to become a Christian will become a Christian regardless...have bibles available free on taxpayer's bill at schools. Someone who wants to be a Muslim will become one...have Korans available free on taxpayer's bill at schools. Someone who wants to "insert anything" will...have them available at schools. This mindset works great if you are non-conservative minded... Also to state that sex is just sex undersells what it truly was designed for in my opinion. To think such an act isn't something more than a mere flippant activity akin to grabbing a beer or shooting a big buck to me is something I can't understand and thankfully. Sex can result in perhaps one of the most amazing and incredible freaking thing imaginable....LIFE. I respect others don't feel the same...but that puts sex on more of a pedestal than just sex to me personally.
If you told me my choice was a 180 typical whitetail / 180 big horn sheep ...or 9 months of abstinence. I would say pass the tags and the tissues ....
Who cares? Kids need parents to parent them BS....supply your daughters with rubbers if it's so important to you
But what if the parents are fine with their kid making their own decisions when it comes to sex? But the kid doesn't feel comfortable talking to their parents about it, so they don't get the right information or guidance. You can't rely on the schools sex ed, because it is worthless (my school's was anyhow).
It's amazing that a jar of condoms sitting in a nurses station/office makes some people so insecure. Do you have so little faith in your parenting skills that your worried that sight of a jar of condoms will negate years of morals and values you have tried to instill upon your children?
Doesn't make me insecure at all...I just don't feel it is remotely right, sending the right message or appropriate for the schools to provide such things.
