If you haven't checked out the Midwest Teen Sex Show yet, it's not too late.

Trippin' Out: Bristol Palin's less-than-successful campaigning

DigiBitch post by Kjerstin Johnson, May 7, 2009 - 7:58pm; tagged abstinence, Bristol Palin, Levi Johnston, Sarah Palin, sex education, teen pregnancy, Teen Sex, teenage mother, Today Show, Todd Palin, Tripp Palin.
Bristol Palin went on several talk shows recently as a spokeswoman advocating against teen pregnancy, and reactions seem to be split between finding the whole thing deliciously ironic or wholly unsurprising. Although drumming attention for a critical issue in the United States (teen pregnancy rates are still extremely high--and you thought swine flu was a pandemic!), the coverage of teen pregnancy rings hollow—not only was discussion centered around practicing abstinence, but Bristol herself rarely gets a word in edgewise.

AskMen.com is over women being easy!

Love / Shove post by Kjerstin Johnson, April 30, 2009 - 7:51pm; tagged abstinence, askmen.com, double standards, promiscuity, sex, sexuality.
Oh AskMen.com, you harbinger of antiquated sex values, you never disappoint in your oblivious celebration of the most backwards of relationship advice and unadulterated ignorance. “Stacy Jones” wrote to AskMen.com’s relationship misogynist columnist Curt Smith wondering why handsome Daniel never called her back after she 'fessed up to having slept with 43 men. Shockingly, Curt's advice wasn’t “Stacy, you’re better off without some douchebag who responds by saying 'Hmm, one for each of my birthdays,' and then turns over to pretend to read the Money section of USA Today.”

Instead, Curt gave Stacy the low-down on something she should have realized a long time ago: Women who have lots of sex have a Problem with a capital P that will forever keep them from true love, and it's called PROMISCUITY.

Bite Me! (Or Don't)

Stephenie Meyer’s vampire-infested Twilight series has created a new YA genre: abstinence porn
Bite Me! (Or Don't)
Article by Christine Seifert, published in 2008; filed under Books; tagged abstinence, fan fiction, objectification, porn, sex, Stephenie Meyer, Twilight, vampires, YA fiction.

Abstinence has never been sexier than it is in Stephenie Meyer’s young adult four-book Twilight series. Fans are super hot for Edward, a century-old vampire in a 17-year-old body, who sweeps teenaged Bella, your average human girl, off her feet in a thrilling love story that spans more than 2,000 pages. Fans are enthralled by their tale, which begins when Edward becomes intoxicated by Bella’s sweet-smelling blood.

Student Counsel

Talking Sense with The Education of Shelby Knox’s Creators and Star
An interview with Shelby Knox, Rose Rosen­blatt, Marion Lipschultz by Rebecca Onion, appeared in issue Truth & Consequences; published in 2005; filed under Film; tagged abstinence, education, religious right, Republican, sex, sex education, Shelby Knox, Sundance.

Everything’s bigger in Texas, or so the saying goes, and that may be truest in the realm of sex-education controversy. Texas, which has one of the nation’s highest rates of teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases, has also been at the forefront of abstinence-only education in public schools since 1995, when then-governor George W. Bush signed the curriculum into law.
