I wasn't surprised by the recent news item that reported a study showing 1 in 4 teenage females between the ages of 14 and 19 have a sexually transmitted disease.
I wasn't surprised by the apparent fact that the rates of STD infection are highest among African-Americans and Mexican-Americans.
What surprised me was that the majority of the female subjects with STDs in the study denied ever having sex!
Apparently 1 in 4 teenagers have an STD, but 1 in 2 suffer extreme denial! Might be how they come by the STD in the first place.

heh! immaculate infection.
Wish I had thought of that . . . maybe I can steal it (with attribute?)
Steal away (with attribute)! Given the feigned ignorance of the subjects, I sensed the comparison was obvious. Whether you are impregnated with the lord or just a nasty, life-threatening disease (synonymous?) best just to flat out say you didn't know. That's what politicians do.
You're so funny!
