Teen Pregnancy @ MindSay

It's 9:41AM here in Italy and once again I'm working weekends...not that I have any money to go out and do something, but it would be nice to be able to have that oportunity.  Anyways, I gotta give a shout out to all the really cool people on this site.  I've met quite a few really cool people with lots of talent.  I can't believe some of the writing here...its so great!

Well, yesterday I was on quiz thing....I'd thought it would be really cool to do a sex quiz, but on second thought that's really cliche.  I dunno, maybe at the end I will.  For now I just feel like rambling on. 

Why does society, especially the conservative western society that's found in the Americas, place such a taboo label on sex and sexuality?  I mean just about everybody's doin it and those that aren't doing it want to be doing it, yet it's so shunned?  I just don't get it.  I think that if we were more open about it, there would be less STD's floating around and a lot less teen pregnacy.  What do you all think?

Well F$%# it!  I'm gonna do that sex quiz, but I'm gonna try to make it deeper than that usually cosmo stuff.  Here goes nothin!

SEX AND YOU

1.  How do feel about sex in general?

2.  On a scale of 1 to 10 rate your sex drive with 1 being I don't want to even be touched by anyone and 10 being the greatest nympho of all time.

3.  What's your favorite position?

4.  Do you consider yourself to be more dominant or more submissive in bed?  In relationships?

5.  If you could change one thing about your partner's "performance" style, what would it be?

6.  Have you ever fantasized about someone other than your partner?

SEX AND SOCIETY

7.  Do you think society is too closed about sex?  Too open?

8.  Do you believe in "free love?"

9.  Which is the greater crisis facing the world to day, AIDS or Poverty?

10  Who was the first to teach you about the "birds and the beas?"

I'm rather distraut--I honestly have no idea where that notebook went!  And it has to be somewhere, I know it hasn't left the house.  Or, to my knowledge, my room . . .

I've been out of it, lately . . .  that I know.  Perhaps I need sleep.  But I'm also pretty upset about this thing . . .  well one of the girls I was semi-close with in grade nine (I didn't see her much in grade ten, at all) is pregnant . . .  she's keeping it . . .  I firmly believe that kids shouldn't have kids, or rather shouldn't raise them, and I feel horrible because I know she's got noone (literally) to turn to . . .  but I wouldn't know the first way to get in contact with her or for that matter how I could help; there's not much I can do without my parents' approval, obviously, I can't take her in or whatever, it's their roof and their rules, not that I'd go to quite that extreme but still it bothers me
