Education & Procreation at Ole Miss

 Ole Miss students are doing their best to boost American birthrates.  

It’s hard to miss the overflowing bowl of condoms at the entrance of the gym.

Some University of Mississippi students walking past after their workout snicker and point, and the few who step forward to consider grabbing a condom rethink it when their friends catch up, laughter trailing behind them. Almost no one actually reaches in to take one.

Though officials say they refill the bowl multiple times a day, and condoms are available at multiple places on campus, Ole Miss students say the disinterest is indicative of changing attitudes.

Fewer young people are having sex, but the teens and young adults who are sexually active aren’t using condoms as regularly, if at all.

"Fewer young people are having sex." Bwa, ha, ha. Have these young men switched to tampons now?

They are having lots of sex, just like when you were there, it just not a lot of intercourse, again just like when you were there. Many single women on campus are proud to keep their virginity these days.

Please, please take the condoms, kids. The last thing we need is more UMiss babies in this state. With 58% of y'all coming from out-of-state, I promise you that your home state doesn't want them either.

Planned parenthood says that sounds like job security.

Condoms at Ole Miss should be referred to as "Douchebag Prevention."

"but the teens and young adults who are sexually active aren’t using condoms as regularly, if at all."

Meanwhile, 25% of college students have an SDT.

Is this the result of attacks on sex-ed in schools? This is worthy of serious discussion, not just material for online trolls.

@10:55 - I think Mississippi leads the nation in SDTs.

i think its more attributed to unprotected intercourse being arguably signifcantly better. We dont need sex ed in schools to teach children about pregnancy and chlymadia, that information circulates widely anyway. They (college kids) do it because they want to

no more complicated than that

i wouldnt be against extensive teaching of sex ed in schools but thats never going to put a dent in the problem

They hand out blinders for the cows over at the at state college so the poor cow can't see the student behind it.

You can't fix stupid!

It's 2024, we still didn't have a birth control method that doesn't:
- lower the "feel good" quotient (condoms)
- make people feel bad physically ("the pill", hormonal BC)

Implicit in this ridiculous snippet, is that Ole Miss students go to the gym in troupes of "friends", and that these friends exert unseemly levels of peer pressure upon individuals within their groups.

There may be people like that, at Ole Miss, but they are surely not representative. Gym-goers, regardless of age, generally go singly. And at a big university, the likelihood that those coming and going from spaces used by wide swaths of those at the university, will randomly and coincidentally be doing so in the presence of "friends", is not high. It's not a place where "everybody knows everybody". Ole Miss is not some tiny village, somewhere, and the gym is not the village pub.

Writers, these days, like photographers, are people too stupid and messed-up, to do anything else. I have to wonder whether this article is a fabrication based on the Author's having watched a few extra-stupid movies about college life. If the author actually went to Ole Miss to observe this, then he/she/"they" must have only interacted with persons resembling him/her/"them".

This is the best you can come up with? Was that the last thing you learned, before the Ganja and psych meds rendered you incapable of learning new things (and forming whole sentences)?

Free birth control pills would be better. having sex with a condom on feels like having sex with a car tire.

12:21. You should go into comedy. “OK Boomer”…man, what a clever retort. I’m on the floor laughing.

It is against the law in Mississippi to teach sex education.

I don't know about the cow with blinders, but I checked with a friend of mine who's a veterinarian - and he says it is impossible for a possum in The Grove to be impregnated by a guy in penny loafers on game day. So, you frat boys up at TSUN can relax.

Another parental responsibility that social engineers think they can make a difference with. Natural selection (Darwin) will take care of everything.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.
