I was definitely in the minority when I wasn't a sexually active high schooler. But, I also knew that not all of the girls and boys who were sexually active were "whores." Some of them were in what they considered long term and loving relationships (a child's version, of course). I don't agree with it, but I'm not surprised by it. A very sexual society such as this need not be confused as to why children want to "join in on the fun;" and also why many children see love and sex as synonymous. Parental supervision and the socialization of morality only goes but so far if children are curious about what all the hooplah is about. I knew girls back in the 80s and 90s who got pregnant or an STD after their first time--and some of them used condoms. It sucks that they were labeled whores while the boys got to escape the label and stigma.

I was 14. Again, this was my freshman year in high school so yeah, I said they were little whores. And in honestly, I only know 2 girls who got abortions during high school. It seemed that everyone else were popping out their kids. And sorry to say but the guys weren't labeled at all. It's not right but its life. Especially high school!
