Survival of the Fittest
There has been a lot of opposition to requiring the HPV Vaccine to young girls. Most of the opposition has been from social conservatives concerned that…OMG…Teenagers might have…*GASP* SEX!!!!
You know what? I don’t think it should be mandatory. In fact, I think it should be left up to the parents to make such a decision.
And that is how we will weed out all the idiot neo cons concerned with teen sex rather then the health and safety of their children.
You see, My daughter WILL be getting that vaccine in June. I don’t think that she is going to go right out and start having sex, either. However, when that day comes, I’ll be able to sleep better knowing that she has just one more layer of protection from a deadly, painful cancer.
If the Neo con idiot believes that giving her daughter the shot will encourage her to have sex then she obviously doesn’t take the time to understand her child. Because the social conservative parents believe that keeping teens in the dark about what humans naturally engage in, they should be prepared to face all the repercussions of those decisions. If their teens are ill informed and catch deadly STDS….well…not my problem. Should have made a better decision to inform your children about sex, protection, healthy decisions and safe practices.
Does that sound a little mean? Most would argue that the child is the one that suffers the most when they make poor choices. What do you think would happen to the child of a ultra conservative who engaged in sexual intercourse before marriage? Could that teenager tell her parents that she contracted an STD? Probably not. She probably couldn’t even bring herself to tell her parents that she has symptoms “down there” our of fear. However, I’ve realized that there isn’t anything people can do or say to change the minds of some ultra neocon. At least, not right now. I, however, do have a responsibility as a parent and I choose to to inform. MAYBE…she might be smart enough to tell a friend what I tell her and hopefully, it will counter the bad decisions of some idiot parent.
and THAT is survival of the fittest.
