It's been several months since we released our "Fog Zone" report about the knowledge, attitudes, and behavior of unmarried young men and women (ages 18-29) regarding pregnancy planning, contraception, and relationships. Responses to the findings have been coming in since. (Did we mention that they inspired us to create a website?) A few of our favorite responses (besides our website, of course):
"Baby lust: Not just for the ladies" (Salon: Broadsheet)
"Rubber Barons: Why Doesn’t Your Boyfriend Know Jack About Contraception?" (Washington City Paper, The Sexist)
"The Birth-Control Riddle" (The Wall Street Journal)
"The Pill at 50: Sex, Freedom and Paradox" (TIME)
"Sex and risk among people in their 20s" (Los Angeles Times)

What's being said—right now—on Twitter.
Our "Wisdom of Siblings" podcast features a conversation between Lorena, a college student who takes her role as big sister very seriously, and her sister Nidia, who appreciates the advice her big sis offers. So what are twitter users saying about their big sisters?
Did you know that more than 7 in 10 pregnancies to single women in their 20s are unplanned? Pregnancy shouldn’t be a game of chance. How would you fare if you weren’t taking birth control seriously? Grab the quarter and try to uncover all three √’s without hitting any of the seven X’s. And don’t forget to share the game with your friends – are they any more “careful” than you were?
