>>>The problem though, is that those stats say nothing in relation to a correlation between teen pregnancies and states with or without abstinence-only laws. It may be nothing more than that since sex education has become more freely available, the pregnancy rate overall has decreased.

Unless you are a politician! :)
How about this for a theory? American teenage males are becoming increasingly impotent?
Another possible reason is that many teenagers in this country question his/her sexuality. They may ask themselves, "I was born a boy but am I a girl"? Or if born a girl, "am I a boy"? As if life is not difficult enough! Just watch some of our television programs and read a few books or newspaper articles on the subject. On second thought, don't! :)
So there may be a good deal of sexual identity crisis we are dealing with. My college professors in psychiatry and sociology did not prepare us for today’s world! But that was 40 years ago.
