Promiscuous folks are contracting a wide variety of nasty diseases these days. That's why 20-somethings are far more interested in "health benefits" than when I was that age. She may be including "maintenance" costs along with contraception.

Exactly — most 20-30 somethings are relatively healthy otherwise. They just do not require the same level of healthcare that do older folks ....unless it’s for monthly runs for pills, condoms, or the occasional visit because, “Uh, I think there’s something on my p*nis, but I’m just not sure what it is.”
The big one is chlamydia, which can essentially render one sterile. Not sure why these folks really want to take these sort of risks.
I'm afraid you're right.
The $3,000 cost for three years in law school didn't come out of thin air. I've been wondering since this story broke where that number came from.
Sexual promiscuity carries the risk of diseases, some of them quite painful and a few of them fatal. Unfortunately for America, our young people in college are so grossly promiscuous that from a secular perspective, health coverage is becoming essential for their own safety and that of others.
Things were bad enough when I was in college. The things I am hearing from my college-age relatives now are beyond the worst things I saw nearly thirty years ago. For example, one of my relatives tells me she's the only woman she knows in her entire university who is not using birth control and not sexually active. This is not some left-wing liberal campus; it's a fairly conservative state university in the South. I was certainly in the minority when I was in college by being committed to not having sex before marriage, but at least I knew a few other guys and a significant minority of women who agreed with me. Now, as far as my relative knows, she's completely alone in her commitment.
If we think that's not hard for our young people to stand out from the crowd, we're kidding ourselves. America is in serious trouble, and it's not getting any better.
