The idea that all young people are bundles of uncontrollable hormones without brains or character never was true. This bad idea has prospered in the last 50 years as schools taught the false idea of evolution—that man is just a beast with a slightly bigger and more lustful brain. But youth just don't naturally have to start having sex, and many are now proving that by their actions.
Studies from all over the world point to one big fact: Teens having sex
outside of marriage never, ever benefit from it. Never is a huge generalization.
But regardless of the culture, sex outside of marriage never works. And
marriage for teens is not a good idea because it is, in most cases, too
early for their best long-term growth and success as adults. Since most
youth desire respect and want to do what's in their best interest, many
are now opting to abstain from sex until marriage.
In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) located in Atlanta, Georgia, keep records of diseases and health problems, including all related issues like sex habits that lead to sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Reports from the CDC say that up to 50 percent of U.S. teens (this means millions of young people!) are not having sex. This is a big change and it's not an accident that abstinence is the clear choice of half of American teens.
Various programs, some religious and others in public school and government, are now having a dramatic effect on teens' choices as they provide young people with the facts showing the benefits of waiting until marriage to have sex. Young people making this wise choice regarding sex constitute a national trend called the abstinence movement.
