    Poll: Big Issues with Abstinence-Only Sex Ed

    I know what you mean, my PE teachers were the ones teaching my health class, except for the days sex-ed was supposed to be covered. The district brought in a pro-abstinence representative for those days, who totally wasn't (christian) religiously biased *cough* wore priest's black clothes, white...

    Poll: Big Issues with Abstinence-Only Sex Ed

    More likely than not, it would be at the district level; each individual district will ask or be asked if it wants the funding. Obviously the ones seeking out and asking will most likely vote yes, but the ones being asked might say no, at which point they become uneligible for the funds (until...

    Poll: Big Issues with Abstinence-Only Sex Ed

    Federal Government provides the funding, but it's up to individual states and then school districts to decide if they want to accept that funding at the cost of comprehensive sex-ed (whether or not they were already providing it). As for the poll, the ones that say that you agree with means...

    Poll: Big Issues with Abstinence-Only Sex Ed

    The biggest thing wrong is the only part. That system offers little to no accurate information on masturbation, safe sex, contraceptives, and a couple other things, opting to say nothing to help guide and protect the teens that go ahead anyway (because, you know, teenagers can be very rebellious...

    Poll: Big Issues with Abstinence-Only Sex Ed

    Oh, no doubt that this is a subject matter that should be handled and talked about responsibly. If you don't respect yours and your partners body, it would only lead to bad things in their future. A huge thing about abstinence-only sex-ed though is that those who had that kind of education and...

    Poll: Big Issues with Abstinence-Only Sex Ed

    Plus there's the fact that basically everything we ever do comes with risks, especially driving (which comes with its own scare stories); it's a part of life. Also, to use a car metaphor again: those that claim teaching about safe sex will promote promiscuity and increase the number of STI...

    Poll: Big Issues with Abstinence-Only Sex Ed

    I'm sorry if you assumed it that way, but I tried to keep religion out of my post as much as possible, only touching on it a bit because in the sex-ed I went through in high-school, the teacher kept throwing the words God, bible, immoral, etc. all over the place (in a public school for Pete's...

    Escape to the Movies: Men in Black 3

    Saw the movie last night at the drive-in expecting it to be more of a 'meh' movie, especially compared to seeing the Avengers again, which played right before MiB3 did. However, I actually found myself enjoying the movie quite a bit more than I expected, which is defiantly a good thing since I...

    Poll: Big Issues with Abstinence-Only Sex Ed

    I did probably make it a touch confusing by making them that long, so I apologize if it really is. I think I was trying to cram two separate questions into one. I meant for that option to mean that, as far as you know, the school system you took has been teaching comprehensive sex-ed for at...

    Right in the childhood

    GET OUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN!! TVTROPES BECOMES AN INESCAPABLE BLACK HOLE ONCE YOU STAY ON FOR MORE THAN 20 MINUTES! But, wow, that video. I knew about a lot of the adult humor slipped into that show (which I have always loved since its creation), but I somehow missed that one...

    Poll: Big Issues with Abstinence-Only Sex Ed

    As most everyone around the world knows already, the US has quite a bit of a schizophrenic attitude towards anything sexual. Videos, images, songs, etc. portraying the subject are everywhere, yet it's a taboo to discuss, especially in a great number of schools' curriculum. This last point is...

    Revenge of the Metacritics: Diablo III Getting Review-Bombed

    Why am I not surprised with Metacritic reviewers... AGAIN? Outside of professional reviewers who get the game ahead of time, comments about any game should be restricted until at least a few days after launch, especially for online games like this one, because there will ALWAYS be bugs and other...

    Your favourite musical genre mashups

    Holy... did you read my mind when you posted this, because these mash-ups are my all time favorite as well. And Ghost in the Shell... my god what an underrated show with awesome music (especially Inner Universe). You good sir get a cookie for bringing this show up. One of my personal favorite...

    Ridiculously unfair stuff in multiplayer

    The fact that basically everyone I play at in Super Smash Bros. Brawl always chooses Solid Snake or Metaknight. Those two characters (especially Snake) are the cheapest, hardest to beat characters in the game, and everyone knows it. I've stuck with honing my skills with Samus, Kirby, and...

    Multiplayer Graces God of War

    I will reserve my judgement until I actually see how well it's implemented an whether or not the funds needed for it truly took away from the single-player. But to those saying a hack-n-slash can't work for a multi-player game, I point you to Castle Crashers; even if it did get a bit...
