Postponing sex until marriage not an option for gays: activists (http://www.washblade.com/2007/3-16/news/localnews/10202.cfm)
In a proclamation declaring March 10-17 Abstinence Awareness Week in the District of Columbia, Fenty said the aim of the campaign was to "increase awareness that abstinence from sex outside of marriage is a desirable choice for individuals to make."
A coalition of religious, community and abstinence advocacy groups asked the mayor's office to issue the proclamation as part of a campaign to address the problem of unplanned pregnancy, AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases among the city's teenage and young adult population, an official with the coalition said.
