Seriously, why? All of the evidence I've ever seen seems to state that societies are actually healthier when they encourage their teens to bop each other in a responsible, safe manner.

Funniest assert sexuality story ever:
Sometimes girls will kiss mirrors in the bathroom while wearing lipstick, leaving lip prints, perhaps as some form of saying there's no way the Authority can stop her from asserting her sexuality.
The janitor got tired of cleaning these off, and left a note reading "The mirrors are cleaned with the same brush as the toilet"

That is done because most girl think it's cute.
But still, kudos to the janitor, lip prints are really annoying to look at :mad:

Well, when you control people, you can focus energies spent doing other things in to causes more practical for your own ends. I think Orwell touched on it in 1984, actually; by controlling the sexuality and pleasure of the young, the Party could channel their pent up frustration and energy in to goals that they saw desirable.
That's one reason why authoritarian societies tend to be strongly socially authoritarian; they need to focus that energy towards the Party or the enemy and away from themselves.
Other examples might be the tendency for much of the Eastern Bloc (with a few exceptions like Hungary and East Germany) to intentionally deprive their citizens of consumer goods so as to focus them more towards the goals of the ruling Party.

I dunno, is it that common in your school? I naturally wouldn't know if it was in my school...

I already new that part of it. What I wanted to know is how they can keep pandering the slippery slope of "moral decay" without evidence. They're already losing the battle, I'm wondering why they keep trying to fight it.

Because they know that there still is a battle, and naturally if you're in a battle you're going to try to win. Fundies are a little too optimistic.

Women should not leave the home, they should also not speak or look their husbands in the eye.

That's part 2: They control their peoples' thoughts in order to keep them from questioning the fact. That's why those regimes need so much censorship, spying, and repression; otherwise, people are going to start asking that very question.
It's also why, especially in the Middle East, many regimes decided to keep their people either intentionally undereducated or indoctrinated them through the education system. It produces either ignorance or thought control from an early age that lasts through adulthood.

Also, we should outlaw abortion and force any woman who has one illegally to eat the fetus.

IMHO they are afraid that if they stop fighting it nothing will change. Teenagers won't turn into these rabid sex fiends (not that they aren't already), that teen pregnancy will ::gasp:: go down instead of skyrocket, that people won't vacate churches en masse to have wild sex orgies (except ruffy;)), people won't start humping dogs, the evil visage of satan won't appear above DC, athiests won't stampede the white house, ect.

Even when they confront the cultural bagage, it's still one fucking fierce battle. And it'll cost her everything she's ever known, even if she's lucky enough not to be renounced outright by her family & society.
Oh what am I saying? Don't bother trying. There's no way in hell you can imagine how badly people can fuck eachother up in the name of traditional values. And if you could, it'd just depress the fuck out of you (possibly literally).

And then she takes her frustrations out with an invisible hammer and a seagull, just to belabor a point...
One person maybe is going to get that, but it was still totally worth it...
They have different concerns than the conception of societal health you are probably using.
Pre-marital sexuality, and uncontrolled sexuality in general, is, to them, not evil just because it has negative consequences, but because it is sinful in and of itself. As with homosexuality, once this principle has been established, secular reasons are searched for to support it.

I think some adults look at teens having sex and see pregnancy, STD's and many teens having regrets about rushing into things. These things hardly happen to every teen who has sex but these examples are visible so it brings negative views at the idea of teen sex. Teens just need more education about the consequences of sex when they are not safe and/or rush into it. Simple knowledge will have a large impact.

Some may have zero problems with that but I have noticed that many times, those teens that hurry into sex regret it afterward. The person they were with turns into an asshole afterward, or they may look back and feel that they simply made their first time to be a letdown by rushing. Further, some teens are simply emotionally not ready for sex but when you have the media, popular culture and their friends telling them that "everyone is doing it" and the other annoying phrases that are thrown about, they are pressured into something they may really not want. To me this is the ugly side of finding teen sex acceptable. While if the couple truly feels ready I don't personally have any problem with it, they should also know that "everyone" is most certainly not "doing it".

Wilhelm Reich's The Mass Psychology of Fascism. Though he is a little obsessed about linking sexual repression to authoriatarianism, he does analyze the psychology around sexual repression and the disorders that repression creates and points out an example of a society that had complete sexual freedom and a lack of psychological disorders.

Theres a difference between complete sexual freedom, and being encouraged (or pressured to fit into the norm as I like to call it) to have sex.
In Soviet Russia, Reactionary Sexuality is among the Teen's Great Satans!

It's not about preventing harm or promoting health. It's about making people miserable. Take a look at every political stance the Fundies take. Sometimes it's about saving lives, but sometimes it's about causing deaths. Sometimes it's about helping the poor, but sometimes it's about making them poorer or exploiting them.
The only thing that's consistent about fundie teachings is that if they are followed, more people will suffer than if their teachings are ignored.

No wonder you never 'got any'. Guys (and, I suppose, girls as well) tend to want what they can't have, which I believe to be the cause for the lesbian porn addiction as well.
Have you ever noticed that when people reminisce about their teenage years, they always forget about the bad stuff?
QFT. I for instance can look back at my life and see all the bad stuff that happened as well as the good, partly because I've gained some perspective (more than I had two years or even two months ago). It doesn't come easily.
