Study highlights cost sexual promiscuity
WASHINGTON - A new study provides a grim reminder of the potential cost of sexual promiscuity.
Audiostream:
Epidemiologist Rachel Winer of the University of Washington School of Public Health found that, even when women used condoms 100 percent of the time, nearly 30 percent of the women contracted the human papilloma virus (HPV) - one of the most prevalent sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) among American college students.
For a number of years, those who promote abstinence until marriage have been warning of the dangers of contracting HPV, which causes cervical cancer.
It could be argued that the study reflects the sexual pressures so prevalent in today’s youth culture as well as the justifiable concern about the epidemic of STDs among young people. (AgapePress)
