To be fair, it wasn't a major platform issue for her. As in basically everything else, she pulls the party line on it. It became an issue in the thread that this was forked off from because of aceventura3's paradoxical statements on the matter.
In my 6th grade sex ed unit (referred to euphemistically as "Maturation"), we were told that abstinence was the only 100% guaranteed means of preventing STD transmission and pregnancy. Abstinence was literally listed as a means of birth control, right next to the pill and surgical sterilization. Very clinically presented. Handling it that way got the job done WITHOUT some big moral "right/wrong, should/shouldn't" about it, and also without any hand-waving about "we know you won't abstain, but we have to tell you...".
