mostly here are catholics, and the church doesnt allow to use contraception
other than the natural way which is the rythm method.
some schools provide sex education but up to now its still a debate as to
whether sex education will be taught in every school and what grade should
it be.
basically mostly doesnt know birth controls especially those who dont engage
in sex but some girls do know (active/inactive in sex)either from their friends,
mags, internet and any other means.
i think its up to ones self choice if she/he is willing or would like to know.
we were colonized by the spaniard for 333 years that speaks for our colonial
buildings and borrowed spanish words. there are still cities here that preserved
spanish structures like vigan. mostly of our ancestors didnt have the chance
to learn the language because they were not taught to the indios (filipino).
but some know especially those who belong to the upper class famileis and
those who just learnt how to.
now our official anguages are filipino (tagalog) and english (american).
