From Juno to Jamie Lynn Spears, teenage pregnancy is making a comeback—LL Cool J style (don’t call it a comeback, it’s been here for years!). Thankfully, Seventeen magazine and the Candies clothing line are stepping up like a big sister to talk to teen girls about the trend. In the February issue, they lure the babies in with a candy themed make-up article, then get down to business, talking about the choices, chances, and responsibilities involved with sexual activity. From tips on handling tough situations to quotes from other girls who have gotten pregnant, Seventeen does a bang-up job with their spread. Bonus points to Fergie for being the poster girl for the new initiative—she knows what to put out. So take a hint from the headlines—if you’ve got a teen queen, you’ve got to school her in the ways of love. Or just make her turn to page 110. [Seventeen Magazine]

I haven’t opened a Seventeen magazine since I was twelve. But I vividly remember the same two questions being discussed in pretty much every issue:
1) Am I still a virgin if I use tampons?
2) My boyfriend wants to have sex, but I don’t feel ready. Should I do it anyway?
Sounds like they have upped their game, which is great. Until their readers turn 14 and start reading the monthly “50 WAYS TO PLEASE YOUR MAN!!!!!” and “101 THINGS YOUR MAN SECRETLY LOVES IN BED!!!!!” cover stories in Cosmo and Glamour.
