I guess they could continue to promote "safe sex" through birth control pills and condoms. That has worked brilliantly the past 30 years or so.
Condoms are preventing STD's.
Problem is, the use of condoms are not allowed to be demonstrated or teached to teens, and they grow up without condom usage as a natural part of their sex life.
The usage of condoms in Sweden is higher than in Poland, Ireland or other countries with rigid anti-condom policies.
Sweden also has a lower rate of STD's and unplanned births.
Despite the fact that Swedish teens starts having sex at the same age or even slightly earlier on average, than these other countries.
Something must be wrong with the anti-condom policy.
I agree that preaching abstinence is one way to deal with the problem, and the only way to deal with the problem. 300 years ago.
But we live in the 21st century.
Lets deal with this as rational human beings.
Fact: People, even those under the age of 30, will have sex.
How to prevent those people from getting STD's and unplanned births?
Why not teach them from young age to use condoms?
