I absolutely loved this movie. It is a perfect cast of actors playing very recognizable stereotypes that are present in every American high school. The script, though no work of Shakespeare, is well-done and is full of great, memorable lines (Gynger to Adam's parents, "I'm pregnant, you know, like Mary was with Jesus - only I know who the father is"). I think some of these other commenters must be parents or atl east adults lacking a sense of humor and taking this movie WAY too seriously. The movie definitely does not encourage promiscuous teen sex or other such "bad" behaviors - if anything it discourages them by showing all the headache following unprotected sex (Gynger got pregnant, Adam and Gynger screwed up the relationship between each other, between Adam and Amber, and with their parents - besides the fact that Adam nearly went to prison). I think it's cute that little Gynger is the sexual aggressor in the lust affairs - usually guys are blamed for pressuring girls into stuff.
It's a funny, tongue-in-cheek look at the adult perception of teens and teenage sex and the stereotypes in my generation - a must see for any teen and a must-avoid for any uptight parents/adults.
