So the study shows that the move toward abstinence ed has been ineffective, with no discernible difference between the subsequent sexual behavior of those who have and haven't had the abstinence aspect of sex education.

What really concerns me about this article is that it states the average age of first intercourse is now 14.5. Holy cow.
