[Steve Trombley, Chicago president/CEO of Planned Parenthood, talks about "abstinence only" programs.]
I think, in fact, we should really call it "ignorance only" education.
. . .
We teach abstinence in every course we do…
[voiceover] Yeah! Planned Parenthood tells kids not having sex is okay, too! The difference is they realize that kids don't fucking listen.
But we also live in the real world, and we know that over half of teenagers in this country engage in sexual activity.
[Cut back to Elders.]
We've tried ignorance for a thousand years. It's time we try education.
