Weird. I always thought that you were supposed to ram it right into your pee hole.

It seems pretty intuitive, but I guess some people have trouble with it. The instructions are right inside the box though.

Just highlights how third world some areas of the US are. In Mississippi, it's a problem that goes back generations.

Quote:
A lack of education has long been tied to lower income; nationwide, high-school dropouts only make about 65 percent of what high-school graduates earn.

It is an issue that can trickle down to younger generations, says Eloise Richardson. “If the parents are not educated, then they’re not going to push their children to remain in school,” she said.

Whether it’s the result of poverty, parental influence, or some combination of both, many schools across the state—especially in the most impoverished areas—are still failing to prepare students for success after graduation. Just 62 percent of Mississippi students complete high school within four years, and many of those who do graduate are underprepared for college or careers. In the 2010-11 school year, only 57 percent of students in the state were deemed proficient by the state’s high school English test. And for those who attempt to find work, there’s little cause for hope: Mississippi leads the nation with the highest unemployment rate among young adults.

I think it's where the word "demosshows" comes from.

It is still hard to convince some people that going without socks is not as safe as wearing socks. Some people just like the enhanced feel of the shoe on their bare foot.

Pretty smart indeed. Cool way to get the point across and I bet it'll get people talking.

How much more amazing would that video have been had it been shot in landscape?
Le sigh.

That's a crazy stat that one in three babies born in Mississippi are born to teen mothers.

You'd think that would be a sign that abstinence-only education isn't really working.

You'd think...

No one reflects though. Obviously they aren't abstaining hard enough.

I know when I got into the game I studied the heck outta that box.
But I'd been educated on the subject and understood that I'd be a fool to not wrap my tool.
And I could read....

You do have to keep in mind the target audience is the kids of Mississippi. In a state that "abstinence only" is the only preferred form of sexual education.
