Maybe there is hope

Among the background noise of the past month has been the PR surrounding the publication of a book by Jenna Bush. There may actually be some merit in the book.

We've wasted a lot of money pushing the abstinence-only programs of our current government. Here's what Ms Bush writes in her book, "If you decide abstinence is right for you, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. But if you decide that you're ready for a sexual relationship, the best way to protect yourself from HIV and other [sexually transmitted infections] is to be faithful to your partner and use a condom every time."


Sounds sensible to me.

Don't upset by it. I see there are many people who living with HIV or other STD have set up nice relationship and marriage with their partners. You will be encouraged by their successful stories on http://www.stdpal.com You can check them out
