I don't know why Jessica says there isn't any good news, especially when she broke the news that Bush's, abstinence-only specialist, Dr. Quack Quack was dumped just a couple of weeks back, but maybe the piles of bad news obscure the good...

In any case, here's Feministing's Jessica Valenti on the recent trend for states to refuse abstinence-only money from the Feds...

"By the way, here's the article I mention in the video. And also check out Ann's recent column on the subject."

Digg!

It's pretty much agreed upon in the moderate world that conservatives don't want you to have sex until 5 years of solid marriage.

It is also pretty much agreed upon that liberals think 12 year olds should be taught how to use vibrators and introduced into homosexual relations.

If only the liberals and conservatives could grow brains and figure out that they're both FUBAR when it comes to sex education.
