Can Already Smell the Butthurt in Psychology Class

So, I’m in Distance Learning for my Psychology course this semester with my fiance. One of the requirements for doing this online is to participate in the “discussion forum topic” each week. This is week one, and I’m already causing some shit, lol.

I’m going to post the screencaps of others, but this guy was giving his opinion on “Abstinence” classes and I responded. I commend him on his effort to project his defensiveness onto me as if I was the one offended … but it doesn’t quite work when it’s obvious that he is the one offended when blew past my whole argument to him, and he nitpicked ONE thing I said in response to someone else.


While I first had sex when I was 21, your opinion is wholly unrealistic and clearly uneducated for even adults; not just teenagers. “100% preparation” doesn’t always end in 100% success considering that there is no fail-safe contraceptive unless you’re promoting abstinence and sterilization (and you can’t force someone to not have sex or to not reproduce) coupled with irregular menstrual cycles, poor to no income, reactions to the commonplace contraceptive, lack of proper sexual education, and/or unwilling sexual intercourse. I am currently 24 and engaged. By the logic you are trying to argue against teenagers having sex, my fiance and I should live in a sexless marriage because we currently don’t want children, and because contraceptives are not 100% fail-proof and I’m assuming you’re against abortion, there is that risk that I will get pregnant. We should also live in a sexless marriage on the OFF-CHANCE that one of us will cheat as well, thus bringing home an STD as condoms are also not 100% fail-proof against those either. So, in short, you are promoting this idea that people should only have sex when they’re ready to have kids. As for teenagers, instead of advocating a healthily-funded, mandatory Sex Education class that is taught by professionals in high schools, you would rather say, “TEENZ SHULDNT HAV SEX UNTIL STRANGERS SAY THEY CAN”, like ANY teenager is going to fucking listen. Most teenagers rebel against their own parents and yet you expect them to take lectures from strangers? Just like any adult, you can’t force a teenager to do or NOT do something. They have freewill, and it doesn’t take a brain surgeon to know that teenagers don’t like being treated like idiots when they know you’re trying to demonize something that is wholly natural and isn’t so taboo if it’s a constant on television, in magazines, on the Internet, in songs, and discussed with friends. Meaning, the intelligent ones can smell bullshit from five miles away, so if you’re not going to be forthright with them and explain to them the shit that Sex Ed USED to teach students before this Abstinence-Only crap, then they have no reason to listen to ANYTHING that you say, especially the real dangers of unprotected sex and one-night stands with strangers. Then again, if you’re too damn stupid to take the hint that if teenagers will drink, smoke, and do drugs for the same reasons, then how can I expect you take the same hint concerning sex? Your opinion attacks a symptom, not the disease; the disease is a lack of proper education on sex and the sense of shame that society deals any woman or man who dares to WANT to buy contraceptives. So not only are to condemning the majority of our youth by not providing them a proper education on sex and contraceptives, you’re also punishing the intelligence of the few that did their research anyway and want to buy contraceptives. So, congratulations - your dime-a-dozen ignorance on this topic is adding to the fucking problem, asshole.
