However, I would respect her more is she hit the speaker circuit addressing teenage sex education to include all options for teens, rather than just preaching abstinence. <br /><br />And for those that think I'm attacking Bristol and not her mom's politics, why do you think Bristol only encourages abstinence? It's right out of the GOP handbook!Elliot Thresherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01640311972477659700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7462246234009770415.post-36372364296164284852010-12-09T08:37:42.353-06:002010-12-09T08:37:42.353-06:00There is something to be said about someone who ca...There is something to be said about someone who can make it through teenage years and stay abstinent. With that being said you must also respect others choices to be sexually active as long as it is safe. Why anyone would have unprotected sex with the amount of disease and risk of pregnancy is beyond me, unless it's a long time trusted (and tested) partner.<br /><br />Yes at the age of 16 I was having sex and at the age of 17 it was unprotected, but... It was with a trusted and tested partner and we have both always wanted kids early. I am now 23 and happily married to this woman and have three beautiful kids and a great life together. <br /><br />So, teenage pregnancies aren't always a horror story that "ruins" your life... but make sure that it is with someone who you can trust to stick around when it happens.Briannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7462246234009770415.post-73668181523971237942010-07-30T20:00:40.460-05:002010-07-30T20:00:40.460-05:00Alot of what has been commented on this post seems...Alot of what has been commented on this post seems like empty words uttered by empty minds. I first had sex at fourteen. I also fully realized the risks involved with pre-marital sex before commiting said acts of insertion. There were a few times were I thought I was screwed and stuck with a kid but, I never had to worry much because I was careful and we were tested. So for all you prudes and sluts, the key in all walks of life is moderation. Also we can't forget education. I'm seventeen and of average intelligence. Most of you seem to be college or post college age and you make me feel like an intellectual phenomenon.Jaronnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7462246234009770415.post-35846819461192561472010-07-12T00:00:35.056-05:002010-07-12T00:00:35.056-05:00I agree with your blog 100%.

Let me just say that Elliot Thresher you are an idiot... Reason being you make statement based upon assumptions, "partied her azz off as a teenager". So, you were at some party with Bristol and saw these events occurring??? I think probably not. Did you know that it is allowable to drink adult beverages before you are 21 in Alaska? It also is in Texas, which is were I grew up. In some places in the United States of America, drinking is part of our the culture. So, because that isn't how you were raised everyone else is wrong? I think not. Maybe, you think I just some immorral piece of crap. I would like to also inform you that I spent three years in the Army in which I deployed to Iraq for 18 months. After that I served in the Marine Corp. for 3 1/2 year during this time I spent 8 more months in combat in Iraq, and I also deployed to Afganistan for 4 months before I was hit by and IED, roadside bomb, while in a vehicle. During that explosion I broke my back and was medical forced out of the Marines. (I can walk and get around just fine. I'm just saying) So, some people don't think like you and that makes them bad people. You my dear are a fucking retard. <br /><br />It is my opinion that someone should be allowed to concent to have sex with another person whenever they feel ready to. You said that you had friend who were virgins into their 20's. WOW!!! That's great for them. My assumption is that they must be unatractive. Our world would be some much better if stupid people would mind their own business.<br /><br />You should be ashamed of yourself for talking about a young lady like that. See, in Texas it is part of my culture to have better manners than that. Maybe, your parents taught you that make rude comments must young ladies is ok. Idk, just seems like you're... IDIOT!!! <br /><br />-WAR DOGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7462246234009770415.post-90319981752308376492010-04-26T08:59:20.652-05:002010-04-26T08:59:20.652-05:00Its so funny how liberals personally attacked Sara...Its so funny how liberals personally attacked Sarah Palins own family instead of attacking her on the issues.

There are all types of people on this ...Oh please. There are all types of people on this world. I find it laughable that some girls think that every girl out there had the same lack of control that they have. I am 19 and still a virgin and so are the majority of my friends.<br /><br />We are virgins for many reasons. For one, the diseases that you can get by sleeping around and no condoms aren't 100%.<br /><br />But it goes deeper than just diseases. I do have some friends who are sexually active. So this girl is sitting there at a party with her boyfriend, who had been seeing and sleeping with another of our friends until she dumped him. So now the first girlfriend is sitting there with her boyfriend. Is he thinking about the sex he had with our other friend?<br /><br />I could go on about that stuff all day long but it boils down to the fact that we aren't opposed to having sex, we just don't think it should be as casual as kissing or holding hands. So we aren't interested in sleeping with guys we likely won't even know in 5 or 10 years when we have graduated from college and started a career. Some of us can ignore the evolutionary call to mate. Some of us can use our brains to realize that a lot of life long bad can come with that 15 minutes of pleasure. <br /><br />I agree with you on the assessment of the Palin family. More Bristol and her ex-boyfriend. I mean the idiot is going to pose in Playgirl magazine. The guy is not husband material in my opinion. <br /><br />So is there a better explanation of why people should be more selective in who they sleep with? Sure the guy is good looking and if you are the type of girl who will sleep with a guy whom you just met, then he's probably your type, but that is not what I want for my child's father.<br /><br />No, it is not unrealistic to use abstinence. it's just unrealistic for idiots who live in the moment, then want to whine about how unfair life is when they've screwed their life up through poor choices. <br /><br />I probably wouldn't have a problem with it but in my few short years I have already learned that these people then think it is their right to put it on the people who did make good choices to take care of them now that they've screwed up their lives. Yes, once I have started my career, much of my taxes will go to support people who were not ready to have children.<br /><br />not to mention the fact that I am having to pay my own way through college by working a job while some of my classmates have grants paying for their college because unlike me, they made bad choices in life and are now single moms. And they get to sit at home while I am working.<br /><br />Something just seems backward about rewarding bad choices and punishing good choices in life. maybe that's what is really unrealistic. Unrealistic to expect that people will learn to make good choices when we reward bad choices and punish good choices.Brianna Voytkonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7462246234009770415.post-63501060242094619912009-10-22T09:08:11.680-05:002009-10-22T09:08:11.680-05:00I was a virgin until I was 18.

Bristol Palin is a hypocrite (which shows the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, huh?). She partied her azz off as a teenager and now uses society's pressures as an excuse for having no self-control or self-esteem. <br /><br />Man, I can't believe I have such a clear rationale with my head in my azz.Elliot Thresherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01640311972477659700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7462246234009770415.post-82958217505168425442009-10-16T06:43:11.785-05:002009-10-16T06:43:11.785-05:00I honestly have to agree with "houston" ...I honestly have to agree with "houston" on what was said regarding Elliot Thresher's remarks on Bristol Palin. Let me put this out there, I am twenty years old and became a mother at the age of nineteen. Grant it, I may have already graduated from high school and was attending college when it happened, I was still young and unwed. Also, I will go on to tell you that I grew up in South Florida and while I attended high school, not ONE of my girl friends remained a virgin past our sophomore year, making all of us 15-16 years of age at the time. So for Bristol to say that abstinence is unrealistic this day in age for a teenager, she could not have made a more correct or educated statement my friend. So maybe, Mr. Thresher, you ought to wake up and pull your head out of your ass.

All I can say is during the election numerous photos of Bristol drinking and partying were on her Facebook and Levi's myspace pages, which demonstrates poor judgment on her part. I think it's irresponsible for Bristol in hindsight use "abstinence isn't realistic" as an excuse for partying and getting pregnant.<br /><br />However, I still believe that staying a virgin at 17 years old not only shouldn't be too hard (no pun intended!), but makes a young man or a young women stronger in character for standing up for themselves and not giving in to peer pressure.<br /><br />And if you think I'm a prude, clearly you haven't read any of my other postings!<br /><br />Thanks for the comment.Elliot Thresherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01640311972477659700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7462246234009770415.post-82080234353508736912009-06-16T07:22:33.349-05:002009-06-16T07:22:33.349-05:00I think this author is an idiot.

The Milky Way is a galaxy (our galaxy), with over 100 million stars. Epsilon Eridani is just another star (one of our closest neighbours, hence its popularity in Sci-Fi movies), and happens to have one or more planets, and asteroid belts.
