South Dakota's Purity Ball
http://orwellsgrave.blogspot.com/2006/03/why-i-saved-my-first-kiss-for-marriage.html
This blog is right on the mark. Abstinence only won't work. Any of us that are no longer teenagers can certainly remember what it was like to be a teenager, and how strong our urges were. If we don't then we are in total denial. We should be teaching not only the virtues of abstinence, but be realistic enough to teach about contraception, and more, covering all the issues of sexuality. If we don't we are lying to ourselves and our children.
This whole idea of a purity ball just creeped me out!
