The National Center for Health Statistics released survey results on Friday, detailing specifics on sexual activity among U.S. adults. Interesting stuff.
Our thoughts?
Deirdre: What jumped out at me: That the CDC thinks this survey might be more accurate than others because the respondents didn't have to do face-to-face interviews. Even though there's no one there to judge -- people take the survey in a room by themselves -- I think people might still lie. If someone is ashamed of what they've done, they may not be willing to admit it, even anonymously. That would mean admitting it to themselves as well.
Alisha: The results seem skewed to me, including this: "The questions about numbers of sexual partners specified heterosexual relationships, and thus the survey did not measure the extent of gay or lesbian sexual partnerships." How could you omit so many people?
Deirdre: It's kind of like, why do the survey if you're not gonna measure all types of sexual relationships?
Alisha: Especially knowing how many people are involved in homosexual and bisexual relationships, and the number of folks who are on the "down low."
Deirdre: Exactly. Another surprise for me was the survey estimated about 96 percent of U.S. adults have had sex. For some reason, I expected the number to be lower. But it's great that so many of us are getting busy!

The truth of the matter only queer people care about queers...
I'm not "queer" as your Southern Homophobic fingers like to type. But I am interested in all things about all people regardless of their race, religion or sexual preference.
It's how we learn. You can learn can't you ?
I thought it's been proven that most people in the south don't bother learning, or at least learning too much? It's no surprise that subjects like this are over the head of many people here. Alisha and Deidre are talking over many of your heads here, though some of you hicks may learn a thing or two if you pay attention.
When religious views bullys over any one part of society that is when it has gone too far.
It's nothing more than a tool to "legitamatly" spread hate.
People are people.....we are all different.
We are all are different that is true. But in this case queer is ugly.
At least most of you "haters of everyone" will be dying off soon.
Maybe there's hope for future generations ?
No haters just the truth revealed homo's are a big NO NO!!!
A big No No.
What are you 5 years old ?
I happen to believe your bible is a load of B.S. but I don't go around saying you are UGLY because of your belief.
That's all it is.....a belief. No proof to back it up. But still you've been spoon fed it since birth so it now makes it okay for you to place judgement on others.
How rediculous is that.
The judgement is gay queers or homo's relatioships are WRONG!!! It is a mental disorder that the governement is afraid to admit to. I would disagree with the comment about being ugly. They are not necessarily ugly they are SICKENING!!!!!!!
