Should porn do more to educate about safer sex?

it couldn't hurt to have a safer sex link up, and it could help.

a while ago, i got a ticket and opted to go to traffic school. the woman who lead the class also did volunteer work with teenagers, mostly counseling about "real life" relationship and sex issues. she and i talked over lunch about this, and she was almost entirely focused on the issues of pregnancy. when i asked about HIV, she told me that it wasn't an issue at the high school level. i gave her some facts - they were not just my opinion, but real medical facts and i sourced them for her. she told me straight up that she didn't believe it and that i was mistaken or mislead by people who were paranoid or just trying to scare people.

so it couldn't hurt to have the info up. after all, she was a main resource to a number of l.a. school teens about HIV, and her main contention is that it was virtually impossible that those 17 and 18 year olds could get it.

something worth mentioning on the page would be that mineral oil and vaseline can cause condoms to break. it's astounding how many people i've talked to don't know that.
