Tips on Abstinence

You made the Right Choice!

1. Abstinence is the only 100% effective form of birth control and the only way you can guarantee you won't catch an STD.

2. If you aren't a virgin you can still choose abstinence with pride, you are not a hypocrite if you say yes one time and no another, even if it is to the same person.

3. Having sex is a big deal and abstaining from sex is more than acceptable. Despite what rumors and gossip may suggest, virgins are a majority in most high schools, not a minority.

4. If you kiss somebody passionately or get into heavy fooling around this does not mean that you have to go all the way and it does not make you a tease.

5. Intimacy takes many forms, intercourse is not the only or best way to show somebody the depth of you feelings. Don't let anybody tell you otherwise.
