Johannesburg - Thousands of South African teenagers were due to take part in 'kissathons' across the country Saturday in protest over a new law that bans all consensual sexual activity among under- 16s, including kissing and canoodling.

The social networking site Facebook has become a rallying point for teens angered by the new Sexual Offences Act, which makes it illegal for teens to kiss, touch or rub up against each other, the Star newspaper reported.

Well South Africa is one of the countries with the highest AIDS-rates. Nevertheless I think it is idiotic to interdict normal human behavior. Kissing is for sure not the point were AIDS is transmitted. We will not get responsible teenagers through abolishing everything that is fun.

Therefore: It is time for a kiss.

BTW - Kissing can be much more disgusting if it is done by "elderly" people:

Now that’s something I can support, for their own good.

Stop AIDS. Stop having sexual contact.

I just love the word “canoodling.” That’s all I have to say on the subject.

What’s Gorbie reaching for?

.. a new law that bans all consensual sexual activity among under- 16s, including kissing and canoodling ...

Good luck, which they’ll need and won’t get.

People forget something...South Africa has 1 in 4 with HIV Aids. They have done little to nothing to stem the tide of this disease. The United States has spent over 600 million A YEAR to help yet they elect the likes of Jacob Zuma (Rapist and man who when told he raped a woman with full blown AIDS said “Yeah, but I took a shower so I am alright.”)

Mr. DENIAL Zuma is also the man who said that if a man with Aids rapes a white woman he can get rid of the disease. Why in the world would ANYone listen to this abhorrent man who peddles ignorance in his populist manner? He will one day stand before a Judge Who will ask him why it was good to steer impressionable young men to their deaths because did not believe the danger of aids.

Kids of South Africa who practice abstinence learn the virtues and blessings in store for those who do.
