1 in 17 Teens Infected with STDs
Cute little Japanese girl?
1 in 17 teenagers hanging around Tokyo’s Shibuya-ku have been infected with an STD sexually transmitted disease.
Knowledge in STDs was insufficient among the teenagers and the disease was spreading.
A survey of high school students and teenage high school grads revealed that 68% had had sex and 5.8% had contracted an STD.
The average number of sex partners - 5.2.
Those who had contracted an STD had an average number of - get this - 37 partners.
Who can keep track of that many?
I lost track after…um…never mind.
80% knew what STD was…only 20% knew about it correctly.
STDs are 10 times easier to get than to get pregnant.
Chlamydia can prevent women from having children.
50% of the surveyed didn’t know AIDS was spreading among young people.
Still think the little teenage girls in Japan are cute?
Think again.
