CHICAGO - About one in five ninth-graders report having had oral sex
and almost one-third say they intend to try it during the next six
months, a small study of teens at two California schools reports.

The teenagers, whose average age was 14½, also say oral sex is less
risky, more common and more acceptable for their age group than
intercourse.

The researchers surveyed 580 ethnically diverse ninth-graders in two
California public high schools.

Girls and boys reported similar experiences and opinions about oral
sex, which surprised the study’s lead author, Bonnie Halpern-Felsher,
associate professor of pediatrics at University of California San
Francisco.



I grew up in a progressive small city in Connecticut where most kids
were sexually active no later than 13 or 14, and this was about 45 years
ago, when the sale of condoms was "forbidden" in that state. Forbidden,
but openly sold. In fact, at one of my first afterschool jobs, I worked
at a family drugstore near my highschool where boatloads of condoms were
sold every day, and sometimes by me. In my naivete, I asked the
pharmacist who owned the place if we were going to be arrested for
selling rubbers, and he just laughed.

My parents made sure I know the mechanics of sex when I was nine or 10
years old, and my father made damned sure that I knew that I was NOT to
get any young pregnant.

It's really sad so many Americans are so hung up on sex. Sex is great
fun, and, if you're careful, there need not be any negative
consequences.

Unless, of course, you are a repressed conservative.



My point was/is "I never has sex with that woman" is correct under what
appears to be the popular definition.


Perhaps the high school kids developed their working definition for the
word "sex" from the guy getting blow jobs in the Oval Office? I doubt
any *responsible* adult would teach them that oral sex is not sex.


Once again, I have always and only thought that the "sex act," as it were,
only referred to sexual intercourse.

He didn't say "sex", or "sexual intercourse". He said "sexual relations".
What person with at least half a working brain doesn't think that a BJ is a
form of sexual relations?
