Study finds big rise in female gay sex

[kweerwolf]

More than half of American teens age 15 to 19 have engaged in oral sex, increasing to nearly 70 percent for those who are 18 and 19, according to the largest federal study of the nation's sexual practices.

The study also found that 11 percent of women age 18 to 44 reported having at least one homosexual experience in their lifetime, up from 4 percent in the last study conducted in 1992.

Taken together, the two findings suggest a possible shift in sexual practices, in which females are using oral and gay sex "as a safer alternative than (vaginal) sex with men," said epidemiologist William D. Mosher of the National Center for Health Statistics, the study's lead author.

"If it is seen as a safer alternative, it is an interesting response to the campaigns to reduce teen pregnancy and to reduce sexually transmitted diseases and HIV," he said.

1. well damn,

2. I think that women are also more willing to admit it nowadays.

3. I think there are two factors involved with this.

1. Because same-sex experiences carry less of a stigma, more women are able to admit to such experiences.

2. Impotent Freeper husbands (if that's not an oxymoron) are more persuasive in demanding their wives engage in "hot girl-on-girl action" while they watch and touch themselves inappropriately.
:wow:

6. To Clarify, Okie Coburn is a homophobe to watch closely.

No, I don't think that teenage girls were having sex in HS johns, but Coburn did and got his farrrrrrightwingass elected on that basis.

Fear mongering.

7. At a closer look teen oral sex is up, but not gay sex.

Adult women have admitted reported a 4% increased admission rate for a "one time" gay sexual experience.

Just want to be sure before the press jumps on this and equate this with rising teen gay oral sex.

It seems heterosexual teens opt for oral sex to prevent conception and to avoid the sin of inrecourse?

Do I have this correct?

So the gay women 4% increase is not the issue.

It's straight girls having oral sex with their male partners.
