hollywood responsible for STDs & pregnancies?

The Bible's news reports:

Bond Blamed For Rise In Unsafe Sex
Fictional superspy James Bond's spontaneous bedroom antics have failed to impress the medical world, as the character appears to champion unsafe sex. The Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine has slammed movies including 2002's Die Another Day for their contraception-free antics between the sheets, and blames Hollywood for the rise in sexually transmitted diseases and accidental pregnancies. Raunchy movie Basic Instinct, which thrilled audiences in 1991, is also under fire for a reported six scenes of unsafe love-making, although none of the movies refer to the potential dangers. Dr Hasantha Gunasekera, the author of the research paper, says, "The social norm being presented in movies is concerning, given the Hiv and illicit drug pandemics in developing and industrialized countries. The motion picture industry should be encouraged to depict safer sex practices and to depict the real consequences of unprotected sex."

Are they serious? If you're going to burden films--crap Hollywood ones at that--with this kind of moral responsibility, I've got a huge laundry list of other things they should preach too. You can't honestly expect entertainment to bear such burdens. Sure, it wouldn't be bad if we saw someone pull out a condom or two, but let's get real. The responsibility to use contraception lies with the real people having real sex.

Seeing unsafe sex on the screen is not the culprit for the rise in STDs and unwanted pregnancies. It couldn't possibly have to do with the fact that people are stupid or that there is no quality sex education in this country? What little we have is being replaced with abstinence only. The philosophy being not to arm people with information you think is going to hurt them--but of course, in such an ironic twist (not really), that is exactly what hurts them. You want to preach that they shouldn't have sex, fine, they're not going to listen, and that's why you tell them how to protect themselves. But this is all obvious to you, I know.

Don't even get me started with the overseas part of the argument. These people are off their rockers.
