Who is responsible for unprotected sex?

limklad · 2007-03-22 17:26:55

Who is responsible for unprotected sex? I'm starting this thread due to people thinking from the other thread that the young male is responsible and even comments about been neutered. That the young male is responsible for getting many girl/s getting pregnant? Please read that thread before voting and post you…

I voted for the majority of those reasons listed on the poll. There is a collective responsibility but in the end of the day it falls down to the 2 people involved.

exactly, if all of the world tells you to do one thing, it's still up to you to make the final decision.

So the blame falls squarely on the individuals in each situation

Both the man and the woman. Then again from a purely practical standpoint, if I was a woman I wouldn't be relying on anyone else but myself as I'll be the one bearing most of the physical, mental, social and life consequences.

Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

I agree that it is a collective responsibility but at the end of the day if you think you are mature enough to have sex (in most cases people aren't) you should be at an age that you are aware of the dangers of unprotected sex. At this stage the schools/parents/TV/friends should have educated them into the facts about unprotected sex.

Therefore, it is nobodys responsibilities but the 2 people involved

It comes down to the two people who are having the unprotected sex. Nothing else.

While on the topic, those ads that are popping up all over colleges and medical centres lately with the HE SAY's....[something to the tone of "i don't need a condom"]...YOU SAY "You do!"....

These annoy me when i see them. It's not only us men that run around trying to convince helpless women into having unprotected sex. Bit sexist if you ask me. But correct me if i'm wrong, there may be other versions of the ad around with the male victim!

Sexual health matter in this country have all ways been societal. political and religious.

We Still do not have comprehensive sexual health eduaction inthis country.

Condoms only became legal with out a perscription in 1991 adn then they are for those who were over the age of 18.

Here educate yourself on the history of contraceptives in Ireland and how long it took for them and leaflets for sex education to become legal.

This is true from our past, but not for the 2 last decades, more information is freely available and no longer censored. It still does not excuse others for not educating the teenagers, and for teenagers not to know. Sex is a curious subject for them.

Nah, seriously, both parties involved ought to be having a serious discussion before jumping into things. Both are responsible.

Over 90% o fpimary schools and over 60% of secondary schools are patronaged by the catholica church and on land owned by the church and it is against church law to permit teachings which are contray to chruch law; ie sex before marriage and the use of contraception.

Again stupid thread. The answer is both the people having sex. Why you need to ask that question is beyond me.

Yet again your poll does not even have that option!

This one does, You were allowed to click as many options as you liked. Since you have already voted you cannot see that again until the poll closes (i think).

Sex education was given in my school (and yes the church did have a say), but there was a big No No of contraception and sex before marriage in religion class. So we rebelled against the church and protected ourselves while satisfy our needs. There were some who did bareback and ran into babies problems. They still suffering the conquences today, both male and female.

HIV and AIDS was big news at that time been spread by unprotected sex. Word was spreading that the use of Condoms is the solution to stop the spreading of HIV. Today I know that there is many more STDs’ been around for some time.

While some people think this thread is stupid because it is obvious to them who is to blame. Yet, so many people escape responsibility and blame others.
