Seatbelt and helmet laws do not make kids take up racing driving, sex education does not make kids fuck. Hormones and interest make kids fuck.
If we satisfy their interest in the classroom factually, they may actually chose not to satisfy it in the bedroom carnally.

Agreed. I have no problem whatsoever with schools telling kids that abstinence is the best way to prevent STDs and pregnancy because, well it is. It's when that is all they are taught that bothers me.
I remember sitting in health class when they taught us how to use a condom. Of course, being boys we thought it was fucking hilarious. Did it make me want to have sex with any girl I could right then and there? No of course not, being a teenage boy was what made me want to have sex with any girl I could.
Guess what though? When it came time later on down the road, I knew how to use one.
