Can you beliveve that Finn bought Quinn's story when she told him she got pregnant in the hot tub, even through they didn't have sex -- or even take their bathing suits off. Even though you can't get pregnant that way, Finn isn't the only one who thinks it's possible. There are lots of other myths about how you can -- and can't -- get pregnant:
| |
MYTH: You can't get pregnant the first time.
REALITY: Actually, pregnancy can happen any time you have sex -- whether it's your first time, your partner's first time, or both. And if you have sex without protection on a regular basis, you have an 85% chance of pregnancy within a year
MYTH: You can't pregnant if you do it standing up. Or if the girl is on top. Or if she jumps up and down right afterward. Or if she takes a really hot bath.
REALITY: You can get pregnant whenever you have sex. Either don't have sex at all, or use protection every single time. |
| |
MYTH: Two condoms are better than one.
REALITY: Wrong! Using two condoms at the same time can cause friction which makes it much more likely that they will break.
MYTH: Everyone in high school is doing it.
REALITY: Actually, about half of high school students have had sex and about half haven't. And some are lying.
MYTH: Most teens think it's embarrassing to admit to being a virgin.
REALITY: 2/3 of teens say they don't think it's embarrassing to admit you're a virgin. |
Speaking of all the single ladies and putting a ring on it -- did you know that 8 out of 10 fathers DON'T marry the teen mother of their baby? All those fantasies about how having sex will make him love you and having a baby will make him stay rarely come true. Pregnancy and parenthood don't fix a relationship -- more often, they end it.

MTV's "16 and Pregnant" is a new documentary series focusing on the controversial subject of teen pregnancy. Each episode follows a 5-7 month period in the life of a teenager as she navigates the bumpy terrain of adolescence, growing pains, rebellion, and coming of age; all while dealing with being pregnant.

Faced with incredibly adult decisions, these girls are forced to sacrifice their teenage years and their high school experiences. But there is an optimism among them; they have the dedication to make their lives work, and to do as they see fit to provide the best for their babies.
