Interesting factoid

I found this last night doing some research for comment I was crafting.

Heterosexual transmission accounts for more than 70% of all HIV infections worldwide. Certain groups are more likely to contract and spread HIV, such as commercial sex workers (CSWs)"
 
And abstinence is a failed policy?

To appeal to your conservative/libertarian side:

Abstinence "works" the same way communism "works" -- as theories ignorant of human nature.

Abstinece will only fail when the person fails :)

Just like communism, captialism, and most other structures build on humans.


Human beings, Jefferson wrote, are “inherently independent of all but moral law.”

"If men defy that law, they are not free. They are slaves, at first to their own passions, eventually to political tyranny. For men who cannot govern their own passions cannot sustain a democratic government."
