Planned Parenthood Teaches Teens How to Explore BDSM Safely

And it's wonderful someone has.

I have a tender history with Planned Parenthood.  I wrote a show for a Planned Parenthood fundraiser in Texas and the president of the PP chapter pulled it at the last minute because of the content.  It mentioned abortion and BDSM.  I took all of my subject matter from their website, which is wonderfully thorough and informative.  

To say the least, I was pissed.  But in time I have calmed down.  I support PP.  I have let my anger go, though  I know I won't forget.  I suppose that's not fair, but oh well.

In celebration of National Kink Month, they have published the above video to explain to teens how to explore BDSM safely.  Bravo.

Using the same philosophy which prompts them to provide condoms and abortions, PP approaches this believing that people are going to make their own choices about how to live their lives, which is their right.  PP simply wants to help them make these choices in an informed, healthy way.  Teens, especially, will make bold choices in their lives regardless of (and in spite of) what authority figures tell them.  We were all like that.  It's what being a teenager is all about.
