13. Is this guy suggesting that teaching young girls about contraception is sexualizing them?

Whether or not the Girl Scouts are teaching this (and I doubt they are), learning to keep from getting pregnant at a young age is better than the alternative of getting pregnant at a young age. If young girls have decided to have sex, knowing or not knowing about contraception won't keep them from having it.
