texas teenage virgins

[bfu]

no not a porn movie but the documentary on channel 4 on sunday evening.

now i'm sure that most of us think george bush is a fuckwit, but to make total abstinence the only sex education in schools in texas , he needs shooting.

it focused on 'lubbeck' in bible belt texas, and the local preacher lies and tells hisflock that condoms don't because they have holes in them - i'm supprised that in the litigious US that condom companies have not taken legal action against the halfwit.

but nice to see that a local nurse said that some of them had turned to oral and anal sex so they stay technical virgins.

also there are 'born again virgins' have they non heard of an oxymoron?

any thought bimmercat?

I'm betting it was a Catholic School...they seem to be one of the few faiths that reject condoms outright

I watched an interview recently with an African Catholic Priest who was blaming holes in condoms for the spread of aids in Africa

As we have seen in Africa if you can't get hold of condoms you just use the tradesmens entrance for a bit of anal sex which is more likely to be one of the major reasons for the spread of aids IMHO

Rant, rant, rant. Change the record Bimmercat.
It was a genuine query but you change it into a yank hating jibe. And as usual drag Clinton into the conversation.
