How interesting that @cathynewman is yet another feminist encouraging schoolgirls to be sluts. @TheConWom @MarriageF @AnnCoulter

Abstinence advocacy for girls in sex education
On 4 May 2011, Dorries proposed a bill to require that sex education in schools should include content promoting abstinence to girls aged 13 to 16 which was presented as teaching them "how to say no".[83] While sex education already mentions the option of abstinence, the bill would have required active promotion of abstinence to girls, with no such requirement in the education provided to boys. Owing to Dorries' claims about practices used in teaching about sex, Sarah Ditum in The Guardian accused Dorries of making Sex and Relationship Education (SRE) "sound like a terrifying exercise in depravity".[84]
The bill drew criticism from health care and sex education professionals, questioning claims made during the bill's reading,[85] and the bill was opposed in the House by Labour MP Chris Bryant who described it as "the daftest piece of legislation I have seen".[86] Dorries accused her opponents of behaving as though she was advocating "the compulsory wearing of chastity belts for all teenage girls".[87]
On 16 May 2011, Dorries appeared to suggest that a lack of awareness around abstinence among young girls is linked to rates of child sexual abuse. Dorries stated: "If a stronger 'just say no' message was given to children in school, there might be an impact on sex abuse, because a lot of girls, when sex abuse takes place don't realise until later that was a wrong thing to do... I don't think people realise that if we did empower this message into girls, imbued this message in school, we would probably have less sex abuse."[88]
The sexual abstinence bill was set for second reading on 20 January 2012 (Bill 185).[89] after she was granted leave to introduce the Bill on a vote of 67 to 61 on 4 May 2011.[90] The Bill, placed eighth on the order paper, was withdrawn shortly before its second reading, possibly by Dorries herself.[91]

I'm big fan of morning after pill. Better than abortion which is emotionally challenging for many and IMO wrong after 20 weeks @cathynewman

From saying "just say no" to being a fan of the morning after pill with no explanation at all, fancy that!
Is this the ultimate expression of the unreliability and the capriciousness of women?
Why did no journalist even ask her why she withdraw her bill?
Was she threatened by her party?
Or did all the filthy feminist journalists of Britain collectively threaten to burn her house down with her in it or something? Talk about a U turn, eh?
@ntfem @cathynewman @whjm I didn't - it joined the list of bills and parl ran out of time by the end of year which means it drops

@NadineDorriesMP Going from advocating abstinence to being "a big fan of the morning after pill" seems to be a major shift of position.
