In fact, a major aspect of most sex education programs IS contraception educa- tion - and it is the portion most objected to by conservatives, since they view it as effectively "giving permission" for sex. If you think contraception education is important - would you support distri- bution of contraceptives to, say, high school kids who choose not to use "abstention" as their birth-control technique? That's the logical conclusion of your argument - and few conservatives - the people objecting to sex education - would go along with you. -- Jerry decvax!yale-comix!leichter
