Men and condoms don’t really fit

TOP del.icio.us

You’ve just got to wonder about the sense of it all. In Upenyu’s blog on making condoms available in Zimbabwean schools she quotes two men who say that abstinence is what should be the order of the day, not condoms. Yet how many men, who are meant to be grown up, adult, disciplined and all that, actually believe in, and practice abstinence? Or condom use for that matter. Grown men don’t say no to sex. They can’t do without it. They usually demand it. And they usually demand it without a condom. Yet these very men are the ones who say children should refrain from sex. Boggles the mind.
