Study: 84% of women use a contraceptive when losing their virginity
Chris Spags Planning on bedding that sweet virgin in your life? Better bag it up. A new study shows that 84% of women polled insisted on contraception during their first brief premarital train ride to pleasuretown.
A previous survey in 1985 showed that only 55 percent of women used a condom the first time they had premarital sex.
The study, commissioned by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, comes part of their “National Survey of Family Growth.”
Researchers were encouraged by the results. A statistician for the National Center for Health Statistics told the New York Times that “there are some good pieces of news…what struck me was how persistent some of these patterns are. And that they’re different from other countries.”
According to the survey, 11 percent of sexually active unmarried women do not use contraceptives with the majority of those women turning out to be black.
And in other race war-baiting news, black and Hispanic men were far less likely to have a vasectomy than white men are. In your face, all you white vas deferens around the country.
