So what now we have to help criminals?? (Part 2)

Yes, that's right. 12 -to 14 year old boys all around Switzerland are rejoicing and celebrating while Britain's are waiting in anticipation. Oh, Joy! Finally, a condom fit for them!

Although this may be sort of a taboo type of subject to some people, I have very strong opinions on this and I would like to voice my opinions about this matter. If you don't mind me, why the hell are they doing this?

Not too long ago, underage sex was a crime that was disgraceful and looked down upon. The population could scoff and sneer at those teenagers stupid enough to have underage sex. Now, can we say so, when a GOVERNMENT is saying : "Hm mm, looks like the young chaps are cheekier and cheekier, aren't they? What should we do? Let me think...... Ahh! I've got it! Since there's no stopping them, the best we can do is.... let a condom company make a type of condom specially suited for them! Excellent idea..."

A completely ridiculous and stupid idea, if you ask me. On one hand we have parents who try so hard to tell their kids that underage sex is wrong and and that we should be responsible for our own actions. And on the other hand, condoms are being made specially for such immature, testosterone-fueled boys. It is a sad irony, and if you ask me, a similar example can be seen in Singapore. On one hand, advertisements are showing Singaporeans that we should fall prey to problem gambling, or better still, not gamble at all, and while the National Council on Problem Gambling is trying hard to stop citizens from compulsive gambling, the government is doing all it can to make sure it i a success(so that money is earned as well). The effects are more or less the same. How can we tell our children that gambling is wrong and we should not keep gambling when our government advocates gambling and builds a casino right in front of us? Similarly, can will parents keep trying to continue guide and teach their children about the dangers of underage sex, even with protection, when they are reminded everyday when they go to the grocery store that their government has gone to the extent of making condoms specially for teenagers to have sex? Most parents will continue to try their best to fulfill their duties, but inside they know that their children do not have the common sense, nothing will stop them and the government can be blamed for this( although they do not say this in public, of course)

Also, what type of lame-a** type of reasoning is "We know young people are having sex and if this is what it takes to protect them, we need to go along with it"??? In my opinion, this is tantamount to saying "We know that youngsters like to smoke. Hence, we have developed a new type of healthier cigarette just for them. There MAY be problems, but what can we do if they all want to smoke? If you can't beat them, just join them!". This "logic" (if we can even call it logic) is unfathomable to me but accepted by some people, and as a conclusion, I would just like to say that I disagree greatly with what the Swiss are doing, and I really hope such a thing will not happen in Singapore.

Well, even though it's unethical and certainly egging them to continue with whatever ahem... shenanigans they like to partake, I must share this interesting logic.

If you can't off the bad music, might as well mute it.
