Something major here missing IMO; not a poorly written article, per se, but . . . absolutely no mention of the easy availability of, um, "visual info" via the web to this generation, and the myriad of options for virtual fun . . .

It's a lie! I'm, in fact, looking for it more than ever!

It's where *I AM* that makes it happen less! (you should see some of these human/farm animal mutants!)

Here's the original report.

The graphs and tables are at the end.

Don't forget... the CDC is near me! They see the same mutants!

Maybe it's the greater availability of the virtual that's causing the actual to occur less.

Thanks-- helps separate the data from the slant of the article.
I still don't buy that sex ed and parental influence were major factors if there was a change, but seeing that the data was collected 3+ years ago, I'd judge the influences I mentioned above to be just a hair less of a factor.

You're saying that pubic shaving is causing a down-turn?

My point is that shared pubic shaving via cam broadcast may be reducing the urgency of finding a flesh-on-flesh partner.

They're too busy texting to actually have human contact. Sad really....
