Teenage girls in America are having more sexual contact with other females than ever before, according to new research.

Sexual activity between young girls is reported to have gone up in the last decade, while teenage pregnancy has gone down.

A comparison of NSFG data in 2002 and figures from 2006 to 2008 showed that 11 percent of 17-year-old girls in the more recent statistics had engaged in contact with other girls, compared with just five percent in 2002.

The same girls also claim to have had significantly less heterosexual sexual contact, at just 46 percent in 2006-2008, compared with 63 per cent in 2002.

The decrease could in go some way to explain in the drop in the number of girls who have been pregnant from 18 per cent to 12 per cent.
i guess that is one way of preventing teen pregnancy.
