A new government report in the US reveals that about 25% of teen girls have had an STD, and most are infected soon after their first sexual encounter. Score one for Generation Y.
DR. SAMI L. GOTTLIEB collected data from 838 girls aged 14 to 19, and the researchers were looking for certain STDs like gonorrhea, Chlamydia, herpes, and genital warts (HPV).
The study discovered that 24.1% of the girls had one of the STDs. The most common infection was genital warts (incurable and may lead to cancer) coming in at 18.3%, followed by Chlamydia (curable, but if not caught quickly, can lead to infertility) at 3.9%
What's worse is that in the year after engaging in their first sexual experience, and with only one sex partner, 19.2% of the teens developed an STD. Someone's been creepin'.
The problem is this: schools aren't educating teens about sex; they're telling them not to have it. What they don't get is that it won't work. Teens will always have sex; that's just the way the cookie crumbles.
What they need to do is educate them because it's obvious that their current methods aren't working. Teen girls aged 15 to 19 account for the largest number (409,531) of the 1.5 million reported Chlamydia and gonorrhea cases in the United States in 2008.
