Answer:

Abstinence-Only Sex Education

Step-by-step explanation:

Abstinence-only sex education is what our government funds our schools to teach us while most health professionals do not condone it. Most young adults are not going to wait until marriage to have sex because they see no reason to. Abstinence-only sex education also excludes experiences of those in the LGBTQ+ community and sexual abuse survivors.

Comprehensive Sex Education have favorable effects on adolescent behaviors, including sexual initiation, number of sex partners, frequency of sexual activity, use of condoms and contraception, frequency of unprotected sexual activity, STIs, and pregnancy.
