The document summarizes a research study on the effects of abstinence-only education programs on heterosexual and homosexual adolescent women. The study evaluated a specific abstinence program in East Texas through interviews and questionnaires of over 2000 participants. The results found the abstinence program was ineffective and did not properly educate or build confidence around relationships and sexual health, especially for non-heterosexual participants. The conclusion recommends cutting funding for the program until it is revised to provide more comprehensive sexual education.
