Why?

As of this writing according to the American Pregnancy Association, each year in the United States;

 

  • there are approximately 6 MILLION pregnancies
  • of that 4 Million are live births
  • and the other 2 million are lost (1.2 MILLION due to termination)

 

There are 60,000,000 women in the childbearing years of 15-44;

·         70% of these women are sexually active

·         64% use a form of contraception

·         3,000,000 use NO contraception, accounting for 47% of unplanned pregnancies

 

Currently there are 68,000,000 individuals with an STD:

·         with 15,300,000 new STD cases each year

·         and 3,000,000 teenagers acquire an STD each year

 

With statistics like these it is only fitting that CONDOMS become a way of life, not something to be whispered about and certainly not something to be ignored.
