It would seem that the Broadcasting Commission really have a point in banning those daggerin tunes. Take a look at the reults of the study below and what daggerin tunes do to teens..

There's still no firm proof that raunchy music makes kids have sex, but a new study provides another suggestion that there's at least some kind of link between "degrading" songs and teenage sexual activity.
The findings indicate that "people who are exposed to certain messages in music are more likely to copy or emulate what they hear," said Dr. Brian A. Primack, a pediatrician and lead author of the study released Tuesday.
In other words, teens who hear about degrading sexual practices in their favorite songs might decide to try them out themselves. However, it's also possible that the reverse is true: Kids who have sex just happen to like raunchy music.
Expanding on previous research that linked sexually charged songs to sex itself, the researchers surveyed 711 Pittsburgh-area ninth-grade students in 2006 and 2007 about their sexuality activity and the songs they liked to listen to.
The researchers then determined how many of the 279 most popular songs in 2005 were "degrading" because they referred to sex that's "based only on physical characteristics" and features a "power differential" instead of being mutually consensual.
For example, "Wait (The Whisper Song)" by the rap group known as Ying Yang Twins was deemed degrading, apparently because it included a reference to rough intercourse.
kmt.... kids are watch porn... they are more to act from what they see in contrary to what they hear... Sex in schools is nothing new.. it have been going on foreva .. only thing different now is the media n the technology that highlights it more

I am very surprised at the responses...not because teen sex has been going on means it's right. Babies having babies is a problem and it makes sense to go after the root causes...
