@Camponhoyle Maybe not stupid, but they do lack sex education, or something else is wrong in the UK, since the UK has the highest rate of teenage pregnancy in Europe. However, the US has around a third higher rate of pregnancy in teenagers than the UK does.
Education? Ha! The main reason why poor kids are more likely to have sex earlier is b/c less money means less going out, and if they do it will be b/c their dates pay for it. Whether they are forced to find things to occupy themselves with at home, or b/c they are with "partners with expectations," either one is going to lead to a higher sex rate. Not to mention many poor children lack at least one strong parental figure and seek to fill the void in their life any way they can, usually with sex.
nhs stands for national health service so thats the public sector here i imagine they would be able to get a private screen for it but its poor people so not really
Social class only plays a very and i say very small part in having sex at an early age, it's the curiosity of young boys and girls that find it to be "cool" too have sex early. Its all part of growing up its not how rich you are or how poor you are that determines if you have sex. My mother works just like any other and taught me very well the bad things about having sex. But i still at 14 me and this girl decided to have sex in a pool one day. its all about what that teen decides not the parent
@FistfulofDicks - people like you are extremely iggnorant, girls want to have sex just as bad as boys do, and the social level and finance of the kids doesnt matter ALL kids are curious and thinking about sex not just the lower class. your just a shitty person
it's nothin to do with education really, or their parents or whatever... it's something to do and makes them feel special... rich kids feel special all the time
You've got to know about the daily mail. Everything causes cancer according to them. If there isn't a article about causing cancer it's what can cure cancer

Sex-Education earlier I totally agree with. At school, I learned the basics of sex and the consequences that come with it in 4th grade, and it wasn't until later I learned about it more from my parents and 7th grade science class.
rich do the same thing poor kids do so they do the same thing every one else do. it dont matter if u poor or rich they still going to have sex under pressure or trying to be a follower
rich do the same thing poor kids do so they do the same thing every one else do. it dont matter if u poor or rich they srill going to have sex under pressure or trying to be a follower
Sorry it's not about Sex education, it's about keeping track of your kids. Poor kids go to parties hang out all night. Rich kids get picked up at school do their home work and are sent to bed at 9-10 pm.
I AGREE EDUCATION IS THE BASICS AND THE BACKGROUND OF EVERY ONES PROBLEMS IN AMERICA .I PERSONALLY BELEIVE THAT PEOPLE IN GENERAL SHOULD WAIT UNTIL MARRIAGE FOR SEX BECAUSE IF THEY FOLLOW THIS GOAL STRUCTURE THEY WILL COMPLETE COLLEGE GET A PROFESSIONAL CAREER THAT IS HIGH PAYING AND THEN FOCUS ON A STABLE RELATIONSHIP ONCE ALL THEIR EDUCATION IS COMPLETED AND SOME MONEY IS SAVED.
@robinsmart08 grow up, get educated and make a career all b4 having a REAL relationship??? now who wants to wait till they are 40 to have a lil fun?! i sure as hell don't :)
@UrngLemon no but seeing how u hate Niggers, Pakis, jews, frenchcandians, mexicans, and the ducth i assume only a ingroit white person would say something like that
One of the things they didn't take into consideration is that poorer kids tend to be latch key kids and are at home with no parental supervision after school.
the virus that causes cancer is contracted from contact with semen, it doesnt have anything to do with age, it's juust that young people are more likely to have unprotected sex . if you have unprotected sex you put yourself at risk....but also women trying to get pregnant can be at serious risk too. nobody mentions this but it's something to bear in mind. bottom line is feel free to have sex when you are ready, just stay safe, use a condom and you'll be ok.
One of the main reasons I would imagine is that participation in activities is positively associated with family income level. You are less likely to have sex if you don't have a bunch of free time.
It's the differences of family structure between the rich and poor. The poor don't generally have a good support system at home. There's no one there to parental presence to lay some type of guidelines. Rich families tend to be more goal oriented. Parents are very persistent in showing how important college is, gettin pregnant? Virtually unacceptable.
I think that poor girls have to keep up with their peers. Additionally, they have no knowledge about sex. That's where the expression "babies having babies" comes from.
I don't think Ben knows that British education is given to all students pre-university for free. So most women around the age mentioned (15) would probably have had sex education before at least once.
I'm curious as to why that statistic would be correct, but I don't think sex ed is the reason. Anyone have any other ideas as to why poorer girls would have sex at ana earlier age?
Education, culture, etc play a role... but also, it CAN be biology. He certainly isn't a sociologist OR a biologist. Poor women not only have sex earlier, but also, on average, reach sexual maturity earlier. Coincidence? There are various mating strategies for humans. One is to mate early, but this is relied upon by females with lower prospects of attracting an affluent mate. That's a very simplistic explanation, but it isn't a false one.
I've been a fan of tyt for years, but it irks me how Ben keeps referring to the right wing as the evildoers, and condescends about them rarely using factual evidence. It makes him seem closeminded as well.
I really like Ben, he's rational and intelligent. He should be on more.
I've said this before and I will say this again: having grown up in Sweden I have had sex ed pretty much thrown at me ever since I was 8 years old. Sex was never a shameful taboo to me. By 12 I knew all about condoms and STDs. But that didn't make me promiscuous at all. By choice I had sex for the first time pretty late in life and I have a comfortable and healthy sex life today.
Boys force girls to do things, There like "SEND ME A PIC OF YOU NAKED!" It's just those kind of boys that I want to punch in the face until I break their jaw. The rest of the boys are great.
i think youre going a little far to say that poor girls date poor boys and they all just become losers. just because a guy is poor doesnt make him a loser, especially at 15years old -as theyre saying here- alot of them havent had the oppurtunity to make any money yet. now if theyre say, 20, and broke with no job thats about the point you can start calling them losers
Sex education doesn't deter sex, on the contrary. But it stimulates having safe sex, it also removes sex from the realm of social taboo so that one is more likely to buy condoms or use other contraceptives. I grew up in the Netherlands where sex education (or sex for that matter) is hardly a taboo. It has the lowest teen pregnancy rate in the world. However, the pregnancies are concentrated in the poor areas (mainly among people from present Caribbean colonies who live in the Netherlands).
brilliant point. sex education deters sex. isn't that what the right wants? less sex? and yet, their solution, abstinence, makes kids have more sex, with a higher rate of teen pregnancy.
amazing. pretty much sums up right wing ideology for me.

Yea its true when i was young(im from the city) i lost my virginity when i was 14 and i was one of the last on my block most lost it at 12 or 13. I would i always hit on suburban chicks and they say all the boys they knew were afraid. Thats just cause we werent lame, i've always said college is like high school for suburban kids.
poor girls are uneducated and make stupid decisions like the redneck shit heads or mexicans in America, they squirt out thousands of ugly fucking babies all the time.
A study is just a study. It's results don't constitute indisputable truth, or even accurate sociological trends.
The assertion that the results of a study must constitute indisputable truth ("fact") simply because a single study was based on factual data is absurd. There need to be many studies based on a wide array of data before any news organization should be spouting said findings as "fact".
@MrDustandechoes No, but they do confirm what sociologists have predicted, and I'm quite sure that all other studies on the subject will reveal similar results.
I agree with ChrizzeeB teen pregnancy and poverty is a vicious cycle. Teen mother is more likely to live a live of poverty and her daughters are also have a higher chance of becoming a teen mom.
The UK has one national curriculum for all its state schools.
There is a lot of sex education from 12 onwards, and even a tiny bit in primary school.
There would be less education for kids who go to private schools as the independent school picks their own curriculum and doesn't follow the paternalistic government mandates.
Poor kids get more sex education, but their parents had them when they were 15 themselves and they follow suit.
Interesting thought. Who decides? What criteria? What new laws are created or should I say freedoms lost? Where would it end?
Communist China limits child birth to one child per couple. Couples want male babies so their girl babies "die" at birth. Infanticide or Post-natal Abortion?
What happens if you or I fail such criteria? Post natal abortion could mean any time after one is born.
I decide, that's who. What if you and I fail? Well, then you and I never get to have kids! Life goes on even if you're childless! Jeez! And I like the idea of female infanticide because the scarcer women are, the more they're worth. Look at men in the military - they're surrounded by men and the first sight of a woman, no matter how unattractive she is, gets the man's engine running. When men have plenty of women to choose from, they picky shallow and picky.
It really depenxds, like most fundamentalism. Couples in china want a male because males are more segnificant in society. Male children end up taking care of their parents and females are absorbed into their families. Personally, in the states, I believe that if you are not mentally stable and do not have the mental capacity to actually WATCH your children so they don't drown in a pool, you aren't fit to be a parent. But again, it's just my personal feelings.
iq tests, personality exams, followed by tax bracket, all couples are allowed one child beyond that takes something like the aforementioned qualifications
reasoning is: shitty people make shitty kids, and lot of them. it is everyones problem when the kid you didnt raise or were just incapable of properly nurturing grows up and stabs me for something. something needs to be done nevermind the whole overpopulation and diluting the gene pool but really, anyone seen idiocracy? is it wrong?
I actually kind of agree on this one. If you are not mentally stable, intelligent enough or do not have the capacity to raise children so that they are healthy, logical, productive and ethical human beings, you shouldnt be allowed to. There is a difference between a widow that got layed off and who is doing everything in her power to physically and mentally nourish her kids and someone that is just adopting/fostering/popping out kids for a government check
its all a matter of the person or persons involved really everyone is different rich or poor guys r guys rich or poor take a rich guys and a hot lookin poor chick and i bet he will tag it
Well, duh. Poor girls = More likely to be uneducated, depressed, stressed-out, angry, growing up in a single-parent household. All major contributing factors to having earlier sex. It's why you see so many poor minorities and white trash having kids when they're 16 or younger.
Thats because they have dead beat parents,lazy feckless, whom over time will drag us all down withem,as its the slow decay of our moral fabric.And their offspring will be that little bit worse then they were and in no time at all you are back in the trees.
A person can not believe in god/devil and still use the word 'evil', many words have different accepted meanings, 'evil' is one of them - therefore it can be used properly and not contradict religious beliefs etc. On another note, TYT is behind on their facts, such facts have been in text books for years! Who didn't know this already? This fact was in my Psychology, Sociology, and Human Sexuality books last semester from statistics published years ago.
it is not the reason just because of having sex earlier one can get into such dangerous some kinda disease like HIV and Cancer . it is the changes of sex partner go get a life and have research on it .. what a stupid research and lame claim
I think it's not about education at all. Those rich places like that are filled with the "Evil doers" and the schools aren't as big on sex education as they are in urban areas.
the reason, ion my opi9nion, is that wealthier parents tend to shelter their children more often o0n average for one because both the parents will be around two the neighbor hood won't be a hang out like it is in urban areas.
Make sure we are talking about the same thing, do you pay per year for schooling? Or is it a gov't run school? Because in Australia Private means fees and in England Public means fees.
The apple laptop dude is so annoying. Stop interrupting Cenk, let others voice their opinions before sprouting out your own trivial ideas. I mean ...oh yeah 17 is a good age to have sex. What are you even talking about!
TYT, how can you call right wing evil doers when you don't believe in evil. You don't make any sense? That's like Kobe Bryant asking what is Basketball!!!
The called were kidding, and mocking them. Particularly because they are the 'religious' right and are always pointing their fingers calling other people evil (such as gays).They are pointing out republican hypocrisy. Especially since in light of the story republicans will use the study to push their agenda.

Not exactly true, depends on the family support system. Poor girls get pregnant
quicker because they are less likely to use birthcontrol and condoms whereas
middleclass mothers take their daughters to the doctor and have them started
on BCP's. Same with alcohol, upper class actually have alcohol in home and offer
it to their children. Look at the underage drinking parties in the suburbs.

Just a thought... Its possible that poor girls have sex earlier because they have fewer perceived assets to retain someone in a relationship.

TYT keeps saying that the results of this study are "facts"; they aren't. The results of one study do not constitute indisputable fact.
MrDustandechoes 2 years ago
that study they're talking about is all based on facts. I fail to see your point.
Pull0utBoy 2 years ago
A study is just a study. It's results don't constitute indisputable truth, or even accurate sociological trends.
The assertion that the results of a study must constitute indisputable truth ("fact") simply because a single study was based on factual data is absurd. There need to be many studies based on a wide array of data before any news organization should be spouting said findings as "fact".

depends on the sample in question. although you are correct. the result of a sample can provide interesting information about a population.

@MrDustandechoes No, but they do confirm what sociologists have predicted, and I'm quite sure that all other studies on the subject will reveal similar results.

I agree with ChrizzeeB teen pregnancy and poverty is a vicious cycle. Teen mother is more likely to live a live of poverty and her daughters are also have a higher chance of becoming a teen mom.

isn't that's why there are are prostitutes?
codemonkeyslikeme 2 years ago
Nope. TYT wrong on this one.
It's a fact dug up in the UK.
The UK has one national curriculum for all its state schools.
There is a lot of sex education from 12 onwards, and even a tiny bit in primary school.
There would be less education for kids who go to private schools as the independent school picks their own curriculum and doesn't follow the paternalistic government mandates.
Poor kids get more sex education, but their parents had them when they were 15 themselves and they follow suit.

Interesting thought. Who decides? What criteria? What new laws are created or should I say freedoms lost? Where would it end?
Communist China limits child birth to one child per couple. Couples want male babies so their girl babies "die" at birth. Infanticide or Post-natal Abortion?
What happens if you or I fail such criteria? Post natal abortion could mean any time after one is born.
MewFushisDad 2 years ago
I decide, that's who. What if you and I fail? Well, then you and I never get to have kids! Life goes on even if you're childless! Jeez! And I like the idea of female infanticide because the scarcer women are, the more they're worth. Look at men in the military - they're surrounded by men and the first sight of a woman, no matter how unattractive she is, gets the man's engine running. When men have plenty of women to choose from, they picky shallow and picky.
jfkjrlover 2 years ago
It really depenxds, like most fundamentalism. Couples in china want a male because males are more segnificant in society. Male children end up taking care of their parents and females are absorbed into their families. Personally, in the states, I believe that if you are not mentally stable and do not have the mental capacity to actually WATCH your children so they don't drown in a pool, you aren't fit to be a parent. But again, it's just my personal feelings.
Yashendwirh 2 years ago
iq tests, personality exams, followed by tax bracket, all couples are allowed one child beyond that takes something like the aforementioned qualifications
reasoning is: shitty people make shitty kids, and lot of them. it is everyones problem when the kid you didnt raise or were just incapable of properly nurturing grows up and stabs me for something. something needs to be done nevermind the whole overpopulation and diluting the gene pool but really, anyone seen idiocracy? is it wrong?
narezul 2 years ago
I actually kind of agree on this one. If you are not mentally stable, intelligent enough or do not have the capacity to raise children so that they are healthy, logical, productive and ethical human beings, you shouldnt be allowed to. There is a difference between a widow that got layed off and who is doing everything in her power to physically and mentally nourish her kids and someone that is just adopting/fostering/popping out kids for a government check

user33198 2 years ago
Well, duh. Poor girls = More likely to be uneducated, depressed, stressed-out, angry, growing up in a single-parent household. All major contributing factors to having earlier sex. It's why you see so many poor minorities and white trash having kids when they're 16 or younger.

A person can not believe in god/devil and still use the word 'evil', many words have different accepted meanings, 'evil' is one of them - therefore it can be used properly and not contradict religious beliefs etc. On another note, TYT is behind on their facts, such facts have been in text books for years! Who didn't know this already? This fact was in my Psychology, Sociology, and Human Sexuality books last semester from statistics published years ago.

it is not the reason just because of having sex earlier one can get into such dangerous some kinda disease like HIV and Cancer . it is the changes of sex partner go get a life and have research on it .. what a stupid research and lame claim
aftabo3 2 years ago
I think it's not about education at all. Those rich places like that are filled with the "Evil doers" and the schools aren't as big on sex education as they are in urban areas.
the reason, ion my opi9nion, is that wealthier parents tend to shelter their children more often o0n average for one because both the parents will be around two the neighbor hood won't be a hang out like it is in urban areas.

The called were kidding, and mocking them. Particularly because they are the 'religious' right and are always pointing their fingers calling other people evil (such as gays).They are pointing out republican hypocrisy. Especially since in light of the story republicans will use the study to push their agenda.
