Well, it IS pretty hilarious. Real-people sex is. It can be pretty in the movies, but that's all lighting and angles and baby oil and stuff.

I'm always amazed that people want to film themselves having sex. It's like, "Really? How are you ever going to want to have sex after seeing that?" ZERO desire to see myself having sex. None. You have to be pretty undignified to have good sex, and I would be just like ZOMG, noooo! TURN IT OFF.

ZERO desire to see myself having sex

Wrod.

Sometimes I think "What must this look like?" and have to think other thoughts quickly.

don't be thinking you can get away with not showering in the winter

Who, who, who is trying to get away with that?

WTF PANCAKES?!

I mean, I know, you already explained, but were they TRYING to ruin breakfast?

My AIDS-era public school sex ed was STDs and AIDS and STDs and AIDS and pop quizzes on the failure rates of contraception methods I still have never seen in the wild. And then more AIDS. I'm not sure what Texas is so worried about with the whole abstinence only thing, because lemme tell you, with the right statistics-obsessed football coach, sex ed can be incredibly comprehensive and yet still DON'T.

(although to give the guy credit, he was way ahead of his time on rape awareness, where his line was pretty much "consent is not optional, what she was wearing doesn't matter, and DON'T)

Who, who, who is trying to get away with that?

I don't know! it was too bizarre.

(it was, of course, kid-appropriate and not peppered with phrases like "pulling a train")

BWAH!

I learned the facts of life at age six in the local library. (From a book. I should probably clarify that.)

Suh-nerk!

My mom had a hysterectomy when I was about 6 and my sister was about 4, and so she was explaining the situation and went into the whole sex talk with diagrams from there. It was all very matter of fact and straightforward.

I love little kids' reactions to learning about teh sex. They're always "GROSS! WHY WOULD ANYONE DO THAT?"

Yeah, never thought that. I thought it was weird and I didn't understand it, but if it had that many people that caught up in it, it had to be something.

I understood about babies and pregnancy way before I understood about sex. Which is to say, I knew babies grew from eggs in wombs, and I kinda knew sperm helped. I just had no idea where sperm came from, because most of the books my mother had were pretty much conception onwards. The bit where she gave us the talk at 7, I was all "Oh! That's where sperm is kept??"

But mostly she gave us the talk because she'd heard us talking dirty to the kids next door, and she wanted to forestall stuff.

Next time? Get rid of the porn first. Just saying. Because that was where I went right afterwards. Now that I knew there were boy bits in it.

We had sex-ed in 5th and 6th grade. Mostly menstruation and anatomy stuff. Basic how babies are made material.

"Real" sex ed was whenever you took Health in high school. My class was much like amych's in the STDs!! AIDS!! Except my teacher (and track coach) also talked about the female orgasm and anal sex.

Pretty sure we didn't have a Health class in high school. We did in middle school, I think, but I think more drugs than sex. Then again, we were legally mandated to not be taught evolution, so we probably weren't supposed to hear about sex, either.

We had Health every year in high school. We were required to take Gym every year, and for one quarter, we'd have Health instead.
