LONDON, February 21, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A government-sponsored school course is encouraging students under 16 to experiment with oral sex, in an effort to reduce teenage pregnancy. Over 100,000 children are already taking the course at one in every 30 secondary schools. The curriculum, entitled “A Pause,” was developed at Exeter University with support from the Departments of Health and Education. It encourages teachers to discuss so-called pre-sex “stopping points” and “levels of intimacy” including oral sex, that stop short of sexual intercourse. But Robert Whelan, director of the Family Education Trust, questions the wisdom of the course. “I don’t think anyone believes that teaching pupils about oral sex will stop them having full sex. It is more likely to make them want to try it, and it doesn’t protect them from sexually transmitted diseases.” For coverage from The Times: https://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2-585546,00.html
