Most likely for the fact that teenage boys don't get pregnant. And I'm thankful for it.
In retrospect.

“Some are worried their partner might not trust them if they use condoms..." WTF? But they will trust them to hang around and take care of their handiwork?
To: Cautor

Well Teddy Kennedy isn't a teenage boy by any stretch(don't think he ever was), but he looks like he's about to break water.

I get so tired of these studies where they look for 'answers' to the obvious. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand why guys don't care as much about pregnancy as girls do. Is the world just full of idiots? (Don't answer that!)

Most teenage boys who don’t plan to cause pregnancy still believe it is likely they will get someone pregnant within six months... Then keep your zipper in the upright and locked position when with a member of the opposite sex.
That wasn't very difficult now was it.

Despite your protestation to the contrary, let me take a stab at it. The world is not full of idiots which is why the DUmmycrats are still in the minority.
