Regardless of whether or not it was legal or isn't legal. It still sends a pretty messed up message to younger people.
And it doesn't remove any of their responsibility in having safer sex. Just saying, it's not just stern looks.
When I was buying condoms when I was younger, and even now. If I get dirty looks from the older people selling them to me, I generally tell them their grandson is great in bed. Some of them it works, cause they have a younger grandson, others... well it doesn't and they just look at me like I'm ape**** crazy. It's still funny the ones it actually works the look on their faces.

I can understand that happening in Alabama or some place like that, but not a more moderate place. |

It's not just stern looks, there are lots of older employees of these places that won't sell them to teenagers, plain and simple.  | Thats terrible i think this is more the kind of thing that ends up with unwanted children then lack of sex ed.It would also be better if they developed much better more comftable condoms.
