oh my WORD dont even get me started on the whole sex education thing.
i will say this - that money would sure as hell be better spent funding local planned parenthoods instead of abstinence only sex ed, which should be simply called DENIAL/KEEPING OF INFORMATION. a;sldkgja;ldjg;alksgjd;laksjgd;alsdgj. my little sister lost her virginity at age 15 or 16, and she'll be 19 next month. i had to explain to her exactly how a menstrual cycle worked, how sex worked, and how pregnancy happened, because she had no idea. all she knows is to shave because its apparantly preferred, and that sometimes it hurts. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??? how can anyone complain about abortion being legal when they cant even support educating someone enough to prevent the pregnancy in the first place???? ugh. UGH. seriously!!!!!!!

Yeah, sex education for us was a redneck coach in front of a room talking about "baginas." At least they let him show us how to put condoms on a banana, or else more girls in my high school would have been pregnant...

Yeah, Republicans can actually condemn abortion when they work towards eliminating the need (through education, improved financial and emotional support for expecting mothers) instead of eliminating safe, legal sources of a service that there is a demand for. I personally am not a fan of abortion and wish every pregnancy could result in a child that is loved and wanted by its parents, but it is none of my damn business what happens in anyone else's life or uterus...

I am trying so hard to get NPR's audio to work...

I possibly might change my presentation topic to the Pirahã as a refutation of UG...

But yes, thank you for this link!

You're not a dork for wanting to read the Harry Potters again. I am planning on doing that sometime this summer.

Yes, except I read them all three times last year. That's up a bit from my average of once a year since I was 14...I can see this summer being the same, actually...
