Abstinence, Safe Sex, and Making Informed Decisions

Question 4 • MI-Contemporary Health

Gina is a friend of Nicole's. What advice should Gina give Nicole? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
“You can still contract STDs even if you’re not engaging in sexual intercourse.”
B
“Is this something you’ve discussed with Anthony and are ready to do?”
C
“Anthony won’t respect you if you don’t eventually have sex with him.”
D
“If you think it’s a good idea, go for it.”
E
“Being abstinent means avoiding all sexual activities, not just sex.”

Explanation

A is good advice because some sexually transmitted diseases can spread through sexual contact other than intercourse. B encourages Nicole to communicate with Anthony and make sure she feels ready. E correctly explains that abstinence means avoiding sexual activities broadly; C pressures Nicole, and D dismisses the need to think carefully about her decision.
