Adequate information? Adequate information! I fail to see how students, particularly public school students, are not receiving information concerning the consequences of unsafe sex or even the need for safe sex. I remember when I was a high school student that, no matter where I seemed to turn, the people around me were talking about their sexual experiences or making sexual inuendos, whether I wanted to hear it or not. In fact, I didn’t even need my parents to give me the “birds and the bees” talk when I was in middle school because I had already picked up the general gist from the people around me - middle school! Not to mention that even the commercials on television are sex-saturated. From the Trojan commercials with the pig who turns into a handsome dude when he decides to use a condom to any one of the commercials promoting the HPV vaccine. Essentially, any student would have to literally live under a rock in order to avoid encountering sexually-educating information, majority of which has nothing to do with the message of abstinence.

Furthermore, if Ms. Walsh is really as genuinely concerned about this apparent travesty as she seems to be, perhaps she should consult the writers of her show to provide her with the opportunity to portray to the millions of women who watch her engage in promiscuous acts the truth about random sex that way she can be assured that the information is getting out there.
