Like many Americans, I remember my 8th grade sex-ed class well. In one class, Ms. Reiter broke a condom while stretching it over a very large banana; moments later, a diaphragm snapped out of her hand and landed on Nate Fisher’s lap. There was also a lot of useful information about pregnancy, STDs, and sexual preference.

Love was in the air on tonight’s Awkward, but Valentine’s Day has a way of bringing out people’s jealousy too. Which side of that thin line between love and hate will Jenna land on?

You gotta love all the stuff you can do with your phone these days (Ordering food and movie tixs! Finding parking spots! Using your phone as a flashlight! Draw Something!), but sending naked pictures of yourself might not be the best use of technology. A recent study from the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine says that sexting has gone up with young people, though the people taking part might not realize all the unpleasant consequences that could happen.

Today is National HIV Testing Day, which means we encourage you to get yourself tested. I know it’s a scary thought, but it is possible to have HIV -- and be spreading it -- and not realize any of this because you feel fine. According to the CDC, one in five people in the US who are HIV positive don’t even know it! In order to help curb the spread of HIV/AIDS, AIDSVu is setting up new interactive maps to show the prevalence of HIV in America.

Dan was in the heart of Texas tonight for the season finale of "Savage U," scooping out cowboys and tumbleweeds at the Texas Tech campus. But it was a female student who managed to catch him a little off guard with her story.
