I don't think it's creepy. What is wrong with educating your children about the dangers of having premarital relations (especially as a teenager) and encouraging them to wait? If the positive reinforcement doesn't come from the family, then where is it going to come from? And I think parent's should be up in their children's business when it comes to sex....haven't yall ever seen the tobacco and drug commercials? If you love them you'll ask is the sort of theme they advertise. I believe the same applies with sex.
There's nothing wrong with education. I was educated on how to protect myself, and my parents luckily kept it at that. They didn't make my sex life their business. I was told, however, not to do drugs? Why? 'Cause they're illegal. Sex, between two consenting parties, isn't illegal. Had I been caught with pot in the car, I would be in serious trouble to this day. Had I been caught parking? Nope. Sex and drugs really can't be compared in that light--unless you're a fundie.
