conversational avoidance concerning the most
intimate act. It hits young adults just as the
society had completed investing in their training
and before any payback can occur. It kills slowly
and incurs high treatment and care costs even as
the victim had time to bear two, three, even four

immune system, making it almost impossible for
people in undevelop...
