City (Guess Which One) Scraps Plan To Pay Kids To Attend Sex Ed Camp

For now. 

Vaginas, erections, rubbers. And free lunch(!) plus a c-note.  What's not to like.

 

 

AUSTIN (KXAN) — A sex education workshop set to pay local high schoolers $100 to attend has been postponed, Austin Public Health (APH) confirmed to KXAN on Tuesday.

“Spring Break Sex-Ed Camp” was scheduled to take place in March at a handful of Austin Public Library locations and Del Valle libraries, or virtually, depending on pandemic conditions.

An online advertisement posted to Austin Public Library’s social media last weekend stated teen attendees could “get $100 (plus lunch!)” for their participation.

The posts were later removed from Facebook and Twitter, and the event was taken off the library’s website calendar.

An Instagram post was still visible Tuesday morning with nearly 400 comments. Some users applauded the idea, though the vast majority were critical.

By Tuesday evening, the advertisement was gone entirely.

APH said the camp is part of its Austin Healthy Adolescent (AHA) Program which “has been serving the community since 2013 working to address high rates of unplanned teen pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections in our community.”

Spring Break Sex-Ed Camp sounds like an SNL skit. 

Spring Break Sex-Ed Band Camp is my next Super Group band name with David Allen Coe, Johnny Lydon, Luther Campbell and Perry Farrell.  It's just too bad GG Allin isn't around anymore and that Ozzy is over the hill.

All joking aside, what's wrong with this course? Assholes want to ban abortions but don't want to do anything to prevent pregnancies whether via sex ed education or offering free access to birth control and contraceptives. Abstinence works so fucking well. That's why this state is one of the leaders in teens with multiple pregnancies. 

Take away choice but offer nothing to prevent the unwanted effect. Fucking idolatry and blind faith stupidity.
