    That means 50% are up for a shag.... Look on the bright side!

    Link to said studies, or is this just very poor trolling?

    Id say these "studies" were done just to scare people, i doubt the number is that high

    I doubt it, unless I got the STD free half.

    On a serious note NUIM give you 3 or 4 condoms every wednesday, I've only had to use 2 of my own since I started, so most people are well protected from that.

    Given that (to the best of my knowledge) females are not born with STDs, where do you suppose these young college girls picked up these STDs :confused::confused:

    Could it be from the 99.99999% of college guys who are shagging all around them ;)

    They can study close as they like, with any magnifying glass but the won't find willy's winkle to give it aids to.

    Title of the article is, "1 in 4 teen girls has sexually transmitted disease".

    Your maths isn't up to much if 1 in 4 = 50%.

    If you can read this, you're too close!

    False.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,738 ✭✭✭mawk


    I honestly read the title as being about the standard deviation among college girls.

    :-(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    Must be false, too round of a number to be true


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭Plazaman


    Plus that's an American study. Everyone knows that our lovely Irish girls don't carry on like that and all of them are pure as the driven snow.


    Don't forget to PM me you numbers girls for defending your honour


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,846 ✭✭✭Fromthetrees


    25% is awful high, sex education isn't covered nearly enough.

    Have a read of what they were saying about UCD in 2008. I doubt it's got much worse since then, when the figures were one in 10 (10%). They actually had bars on campus back then, unlike now.

    Death has this much to be said for it:
    You don’t have to get out of bed for it.
    Wherever you happen to be
    They bring it to you—free.

    This calls for a Limerick.


    A survay done in UCD.
    Showed 10% of girls had an STD.
    They got rid of the drink.
    Now theres less of a stink.
    When they go for a pee.

    ....96.5% of the women in one Irish university have an STD.
    I'm not saying which one though, enjoy your lectures lads.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭WhimSock


    But I only have 50% of the STD's. Who's winning now, eh?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,147 ✭✭✭PizzamanIRL


    72% of statistics are inaccurate.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,461 ✭✭✭--Kaiser--


    There are plenty of women and men willing to have sex with relative strangers without condoms, I wouldn't be at all surprised if this was true

    Poor sex education in this country. In my entire academic life I was given ONE sex education class. Disgraceful.

    I guess it has to do with the church and how it's still a taboo to talk about sex in most households.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,675 ✭✭✭thunderdog


    Yeah just thinking about two of the common ones-Herpes and Genital Warts.

    About 1 in 5 (or 20% if my Maths is correct) of women have genital herpes.

    That coupled with about 50% of people getting genital warts at some stage in their lives means that a lot of people are walking around with itchy pants

    Are you asking if the statistics are true or false, or if you reading the studies about the statistics is true or false?

    Pointless OP makes for pointless thread.
