First of all, please use sentences with punctuation, it's pretty much a basic practice we have in the English grammar system. Secondly, how is staying "pure" until marriage a "duh"? I understand where you're coming from saying that abstinence does eliminate problems that may come with sex, but that is no reason to categorize sexual expression solely under the guise of marriage, or we'd have divorce attorneys making even more of a killing than they do already. The problem is that for these women the consequences are much greater due to their lack of access to resources and education on how to use these resources properly. I'm sure if you chose to have sex, you would have cheap access to birth control, plan B, condoms, etc., and while some blame IS placed on them (they made the choice to have unprotected sex), you cannot blame these women in total for a societal problem like this.
