It can seem like everyone is always talking about
who is, and who isn't, hooking up. Get the real hook up by Talking
Sex Together - TxT. Talking about safer sex - or no sex - with your
friends is an easy way to help each other make smart decisions about
sex. www.teenstxt.com
Submit a TxT
Safer sex, no sex, and teen pregnancy can be tricky topics to seriously
talk about with friends. How do you bring up the topic of sex without
being completely awkward? Check out the messages on this site, pick
your faves, and text them to your BFFs' cells straight from this
site!
Got an even sweeter TxT? Just think of some phrases related to safer
sex - or no sex - like "no condom no nookie." Then convert
them into textable phrases (TxTs), such as "NCNN."
Teens TxT
Even though it can seem like everyone is talking about who "does
it" or who "doesn't," talking about safer sex or
not having sex can be uncomfortable. Check out the links below for
ideas on how to "Talk It Out" with your friends, BF, GF,
or even your parents. You'll also hear from real Iowa teens who
are "Speaking Out" about the decisions they have made
when it comes to sex. Then, do some "Fact Finding" to
get the info you need to distinguish facts about sex from fiction
and to make sex safer for you and your boyfriend or girlfriend.

of two Iowa teens.

Finding: Learn to tell what's fact and what's
