Oral sex lessons cut rates of teenage pregnancy

Guardian
HEAD OF THE CLASS
Encouraging schoolchildren to experiment with oral sex could prove the most effective way of curbing teenage pregnancy rates, a government study has found.

Pupils under 16 who were taught to consider other forms of 'intimacy' such as oral sex were significantly less likely to engage in full intercourse...

...Schoolchildren, particularly girls, who received such training developed a 'more mature' response to sex...

...Now the government will recommend the scheme, called A Pause, to schools throughout England and Wales following the success of the trial in 104 schools...
This was too good to pass up. Obiously a personal moral weakness on my part.

Some additional comments offered over at Tim Blair:
- I guess the Brits will stick anything in their mouths except a toothbrush....

- I guess you could say they are wanting to head off unwanted pregnancies by teaching girls how to use their head.

- "Alas, poor Yoric, I knew him Fellatio...er, HO-ratio. I meant Horatio Miss...it's that new human relations class. Honest."

- In the ongoing struggle to prevent teen pregnancy Britain hails this blow for freedom.

- Offered as an 'O' level, 69'll get you a distinction.
