Follow me on:

15 and Counting is a campaign developed by the International Planned Parenthood Federation to push governments to meet a commitment made in Cairo in 1994 to provide universal access to services and information on reproductive and sexual health. 179 governments signed on to do this by 2015. The campaign is like an early alarm clock, reminding everyone that they only have five years left.

One of their projects is a music competition. They've teamed up with Dopetracks, a free music collaboration network, and are getting people to record 15 and counting inspired tracks. Tracks that feature gem lines like "you gotta learn you can burn from some great sex/ wait your turn there ain't no such thing as late sex."

This stuff always runs the risk of being cheesy or preachy. But it is great to hear explicit talk about sex that is a little less performative, while still being all about the performance.
