American culture should become more sexualized

Before continuing to rebut your arguments I want to point out that I am not arguing that America should become more repressed sexually and that abstinence only should be our education plan. I am arguing that our laws and education plan should stay at about what they are now for the majority of America according to population in said area. Most states do not encourage abstinence only and therefore that is not my argument. Pros argument is that we should change our laws and education plan to become more sexualized while my argument is that we should remain the same. According to the source below the rate of teen pregnancy's is dropping significantly in America which supports my argument that what we are doing right now is working. - http://www.latimes.com... "More sexual countries such as The Netherlands, Amsterdam, Spain, France, and Germany have significantly less teen pregnancies, abortions, and STDs than the more conservative country of America which seems to be rampant in these three things." Sources below support my statements for the rebuttal of this argument. I would like to first point out that causation does not always mean correlation. While theses facts may be related to each other, your argument falls on the assumption that the relaxed laws of these countries is directly attributing to the low teen pregnancy rates. Different countries are affected differently by changes or differences in laws are cultures than others. To sufficiently make my point I will show two countries that contradict your argument. Niger - Age of consent: 13 Teen pregnancy rate: 207 per 1000 people Libya - Age of consent: 18 Teen pregnancy rate: 3.2 per 1000 people While I can not make a strong claim as to exactly what the cause is for the higher pregnancy, I can point it in another direction. Americans, in particular, are generally thrill seeking people. Many people would describe sex as one of the most fun or enjoyable things one can do. By taking away some of the laws, and becoming more relaxed about sex culturally, you are not able to take the thrill out of having sex. People will still do it. - http://en.wikipedia.org... - https://www.google.com... - http://en.wikipedia.org... - https://www.google.com... "I truly believe if harmful sex crimes were [not necessarily more acceptable, but] "less unacceptable" they would lose much of their appeal to criminals and the rates of pedophilia and rape would decrease." There is no evidence to back this up. This can open doors for adults to manipulate children (15) into having legal sex. However I make not argument or attempt to solidify my claim. I only show that your claim is unreliable. "In social psychology the boomerang effect refers to a persuasive form of communication sent to a receiver, yet returned back with the opposite reaction. Thus, the consequential result is not the original, intended message." This only applies to limited situations. If I tell you that you are aloud to take all of my money does that mean you will be less likely to do it? "In a more sexual culture, things such as ephebophilia, beastiality, and public nudity would be more accepted. It's important that these become acceptable because they're victimless crimes" I have already addressed the problem with ephebophilia. See argument on maturity of teens. As for the other two I have no comment. "Sexual repression leads to lack of sexual education." In my opinion, we are adequately educated on sex in most parts of our country. "... and molestation" I don't understand your argument that sexualization will lead to a decrease of molestation or rape. you have no evidence except your psychological boomerang argument. As for the other claims I have already clearly made my point as to why this is not the case. "Lack of education causes unnecessary negative treatment toward homosexuals, trans people, and, for lack of a better term, sluts" As of right now I don't have a strong rebuttal except for to say you have no evidence to back up your claim. I would like to see you please expand on how you think that a lack of sexual education will change how our culture views sex.
