Planned Parenthood
This is a non-profit organization that allows you to get insurance/care without anyone else knowing. On the website, there are information about STDs, birth control pills and abortion. Anyone can go online and find information on things they need. Additionally, you can make an appointment and planned parenthood would help you with what you need. Therefore, if you're underage, your parents won't find out if you're getting an abortion or asking about birth control. You can also self-educate yourself on the site. However, some people don't support this organization because they believe it encourages kids to have sex. Yet, they do the opposite, by helping people who had unprotected sex and telling them what to do. They have provided 10 million services a year to help people with tests and treatments.

Sexual Assault
There are lots of sexual assaults happening worldwide. It bothers me because most of the time, the victim gets blamed rather than the perpetrator. Victim-blaming is very common, sometimes with comments such as "you asked for it". The definition of rape is sexual assault without the other person's consent. But to some people, asking the rapist to put on a condom was no longer rape. If you weren't screaming or fighting back physically then you weren't trying to stop them, so it also doesn't count as rape. If the victim stopped saying "no" then people will be reluctant to call it rape. I disagree with these because just because you stopped fighting back, it still counts as sexual assault.
