By the Book by David S. Daniels WHAT TEENS SHOULD HEAR ABOUT SEX Teens are either erotophobic (generally negative in their feelings about sex), erotophilic (generally positive toward sex), or somewhere in between. This is the reported view of University of Western Ontario psychology professor Dr. William Fisher. He believes that sex education should be directed toward making children as erotophilic as possible being sexually active. I don't think Dr. Fisher needs to invest too much time getting kids interested in'sex. Recent research indicates the level of interest is already high. According to Canadian sociologist Reginald Bibby, 99% of teens believe kissing is appropriate within a few dates, 96% believe necking is appropriate, 86% are into petting, and a staggering 56% believe intercourse is a perfectly legitimate activity on a date (Western Report, March 14, (Teen Trends, 1992). 1994). , ' But is the standard sex In his quest to develop education offered across the erotophilic Canadian youth, Dr. Fisher encourages teens to explore their belief systems through values clarification discussion. It is his contention that parents and belief systems (i.e. religion) are major inhibitors in the sexual development of adolescents. Believe it or not, the media can also be an inhibitor, since their news coverage of STDs, AIDS, rising levels of teen pregnancies, rape, and sexual abuse tend to frighten teens from country producing well-adjusted, morally responsible young adults? It appears that following two decades of intensive sex education, teen pregnancies are rising not falling, the STDs are skyrocketing. According to & June 1993 article in Journal of the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada, 33% of all reported STDs affect the under twenty-five crowd. Bibby's research, alluded to above, found that 36 in every 100 teenage [2 £3 50% OFF all MATIKO WATCHES « unas Go __FINE JEWELLERY DESIGN * .

Another study found that the repeat rate for teenage pregnancies was 15% in one year and 30% in two years. Clearly something is wrong with our current approach to sexuality not working. The biblical picture of sexuality teaches that God intends sexual activity to be limited to a man and a woman married to each other. While one can find biblical «accounts of polygamy, these relationships are never presented as the preferred way, and often these polygamous 'relationships engendered further complications. God's rule is one man and ongawoman for life. At Creation, God brought Adam and Eve together, he said, "..a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh" (Genesis 2:24 NIV). Sex is God's gift for mutual intimacy between a man and a woman and for the ensured" propagation of the human race. This is the message teens need to hear about sex. EE, Clark Ostomy Supply Co.
