Many teens have sex or are interested in being close to someone they "dig." This crosses the line in terms of where you come from, your religion, your upbringing, etc. It is just human to have these feelings. The feelings come first and then it is what we are told to do with them that comes next. I grew up attending a Unitarian Congregation in Rochester, NY in the 80's. In our youth group (and I'm sure it is still going on) we would package condoms with little info sheets on how to use them and a little bit about having safe sex and place some of them in the bathrooms in our building. I can't remember now where the rest were placed, but some did go into my pockets which I brought to my high school bathrooms because I knew folks were having sex. It's just reality, so *IF* you are going to do it, do it safely! Right.
