Sexual abstinence
From Issuepedia
[edit] Overview
Sexual abstinence is the practice of not engaging in sexual intercourse. The most common reasons for doing this are contraception (i.e. preventing procreation), and preventing the transmission of sexually-transmitted diseases.[edit] Related Pages
- Some groups suggest that sexual abstinence should be taught and promoted as the best (or only) method of contraception; such groups are generally described as pro-abstinence, and either favor abstinence-based education or are against sex education altogether.
