Im very disturb by e articles on teenage sex n HIV/AIDS recently...
really dunno wad is going thru e minds of teenagers...
seriously...
they don't see e consequences...
n those are e consequences dat they cant afford to bear...
47% of women below 19 are not virgins...
23% describe themselves as sexually active...
this is absurd...
teenage abortion rates are on e rise...
avg age of HIV n STIs are decreasing... abt 19
which is an alarming figure...
girls losing their virginity at 13...
my...
i still dunno wad im doing at e age of 13...
playing bball??
really... teenagers nowadays are too rash n hotheaded...
its such a common thing now dat nobody can do anything...
is it e adverse effects of education??
stress levels are increasing therefore students take that as a form of relaxation??
i think its because sexual education starts too early...
children are exposed to such education at their early puberty stage...
so the more they know they more curious they are...
cos during our parents era they only get to noe such things at maybe 18??
but i think e serious issue here is that more young ones are contracting HIV/STIs
S'pore is already facing ageing population...
if HIV/STIs are so prevailing dat young ones are dying then who is gonna support e country??
Teenagers now are jus too self-centered...
they only think of themselves...
they didnt think of their parents...
more importantly... consequences...
im not against e idea of BGRs...
but im v against pre-marital sex...
u can say im conservative...
but im being taught dat holding on to virginity is wad we girls should do...
i agree that sleeping with e man u love is not a crime...
but us being teenagers...
e important factor here is time...
time is jus not ripe yet...
Is awareness a good thing afterall???
hmm... i really dunno...
anyways...
i just wanna say
people...
in order to love someone or love others..., love urself 1st...
