So, apparently a group of students in Montgomery County (Georgia? Who knows) were taught about the dangers of STDS by passing a piece of chewing gum around. After it had been, you know, chewed...
The thing is, a piece of gum loses its flavor after it's been chewed by 1 person. Pretty much any contact with a human mouth is going to make gum less flavorful and interesting to even the same person 20 minutes later...
This, then, is what children are being taught about sex: After you've broken the freshness seal, it's no longer any fun. Think about the damage that does to these children's future sexual activity. They are being taught that after losing their virginity, they themselves become sexually worthless in less time than it takes to watch a sitcom. Unless they are not supposed to see themselves as the gum, but rather their partners. And if they're being taught to objectify their partners, that's an even graver sin...
