If you're a white teenage female that is considering taking up the sport of
mudwrestling, you had better consider these statistics first.
This is the kind of thing I'm talking about Hog, this kind of name calling and stats don't paint a clear picture of a group. And make you seem racist to others. I was talking to an African American missionary, he told me of some horrible stats like this about African Americans as well but he also added that historically it's only been the case recently. He said that in the past the rate of sexual diseases, broken marriages, etc where in the 10 and 20% range- he had details I don't remember exactly.
I grabed this off the internet from
http://www.chicagolandmarriage.org/m...statistics.htm
"Between 1960 and 1995, the number of African-American children living with two married parents dropped from 75% to 33%.81"
Now that coincides with the sexual revolution Actnoble mentions.
It just seems like the revolutions bomb shells hit the African American community the hardest.
I pray that all people can move toward the serious promotion sexual purity.
For everyones sake.
It is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties. The freeman of America did not wait till usurped power had strengthened itself by exercise, and entangled the question in precedents. James Madison
