Some quick news around the topic of sex and marriage:
The marriage battles escalate with a wave of lawuits brought to expand the legality of ‘new’ marriages.
The contrasting strategies reflect how judges have begun to show a willingness to expand the rights of same-sex couples at a time when many state lawmakers ??? and most Americans ??? are cool to the idea.
Frances raises female age of marriage to age 18. The previous age was 15. Can’t imagine how many who wanted to marry as young as possible could go to France.
A panel set up by the prime minister???s office estimated in 2003 that 70,000 teenagers were affected by forced marriages.
Abstinence Is Harmful? Wow! Ignore the STD and the free sex for all attitude of the 60’s seems rather harmless. Why go to war when everyone can sleep around. Apparently better to die from STD’s than force young men to die for any cause for freedom. But I digress.
Today the American Civil Liberties Union issued a press release which is featured on their website???s ???Newsroom??? page that is titled, ???ACLU Hails Rhode Island Department of Education Efforts to Stop the Use of Harmful ???Abstinence-Only-Until-Marriage??? Curriculum in Public Schools???. Only the ACLU and a liberal state like Rhode Island could find abstaining from sexual activity harmful.
