My larger concern is with the fact that studies have shown that abstinence-only education consistently leads to increased pre-marital pregnancy rates.

This means that men will hew to increasingly untenable positions, while women use the words and ideas of their opponent to modify and clarify their own arguments. It seems sad that some women willingly opt out of this discourse, as they can add so much to it.<br /><br />Regarding Cranksterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02963261408896541210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33571361.post-18462862703349877882007-01-23T12:00:00.000-05:002007-01-23T12:00:00.000-05:00Sorry to go on, but just to illustrate my point, f...Sorry to go on, but just to illustrate my point, found this comment on a UK blog in response to another comment - neither by the author of the blog:<br /><br />"It seems to me, often, that the main function of the internet has been to convince thoughtless loudmouths that what they would previously have said in a saloon bar is now somehow worthy of being committed to prose."<br /><br />Miaow!<br /Glamourpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01450175254756849062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33571361.post-39539364753106616432007-01-23T11:51:00.000-05:002007-01-23T11:51:00.000-05:00Ha ha ha!

Burn me at the stake for saying this, but your posts of yesterday and today and the comments that followed seem to me to be a complete manifestation of your point.
