S/O the sex talk...

Jillibean85 · April 2012

Thanks, Sookie, for bringing this up... It reminded me that my Mom gave this talk to me while we were at the community pool, I must have been about 6 or 7.. Literally went like this, "The boy sticks his penis in the girl's vagina." Boom. That was it, and i was traumatized (until i was 18, that is...). Did you get the talk? Was it "Birds and bees" or point blank?

I never got any talks.

When I was in high school my dad said something about "If I bastard our name, he'd be PISSED"

....that's about it.

Oh wow. No. Like I said in the AF thread, my mom was not good with having serious talks about serious subjects or anything that could be awkward. Neither was my dad. So that = no sex talk for us kids. Thankfully I wasn't having sex in hs or anything, but I never ever felt comfortable asking my mom for birth control. Neither did my sister which in her case, ended up in her getting pregnant at 17. Thank god for university health clinics, for me anyways.

Same here and still isn't!...I plan to be the exact opposite with my kids though.

If she hasn't asked me about it before puberty, I think i may have to get some books or videos... and answer questions after. As informal as possible... I was never comfortable enough going to my Mom (not because i couldn't, but like a PP said in the other thread, we didn't communicate a lot about those kinds of things), I want DD to come to me about anything and everything..

I honestly can't remember. I do know my parents consented to sex education in school (I'm pretty sure it was 5th grade - and I know for sure it was elementery school).

I know she talked about it, but, I don't remember having one specific enlightening "talk"

I got the talk around 7 or so after I found a porno under my brothers bed, and popped that boy into the VCR because I thought it was a movie. My mom heard my traumatized scream, came running in, and gave me the talk as the movie was playing. I never snooped through my brothers room after that, and man was he in trouble!

I don't remember how old I was but my mom gave my brother and I the talk while she was driving us somewhere. She didn't want to look at us when she explained it. The only thing I did afterwards was go "Mom you have 4 kids ..." and she replied "I know I had to do it 4 times to get you guys."

My mom sat me down and talked me through it in much much detail. She drew a lot of pictures. I also learned the word cross-section that day.

My parents didn't even have a chance a boy in my second grade class told me. I went home and asked my mom about it. Of corse she was freaked out and ended up talking to my teacher about it. The boy had to have a meeting with his parents and the school. It's funny because we went to school together until high school and are good friends and we still joke about it.

When I was 18 and my bf broke up with me (OMG it was the end of the world obviously) and I was crying in my room, my mom came in and asked, "Did you have sex with him?" and I nodded and she walked out of the room.

We have a fairly comprehensive sex-ed class in schools here though so I knew all about birds and bees and had actually been on the pill by then for 3 years, so yeah. Go mom!

My mom sat me and my older brother down at the same time and read a book with us about it. Talk about AWKWARD!!! I was mortified that she was showing me a book with pics in front of my brother. Needless to say, it only happened that one evening and I didn't retain a whole lot. My mom was someone who you could not talk about things like that with.

I will always be grateful to my sophomore PE teacher. My parents never let me or my brothers participate in sex ed in school (they were extreme religious). They thought that sex ed shouldn't teach about bc and abstinence was the only thing they should talk about. My PE teacher pulled me aside before that class and asked me if I would like to stay and participate. He said that he thought it was my right to choose if I wished to stay for the class or not. He was fine either way with my decision. I opted to stay. It was the only way I ever learned about a woman's and man's bodies and how they worked.

Looking back, if my parents ever found out, my PE teacher could have gotten fired for letting me participate. I respect his courage allowing me to have that choice. I was 16 years old for fricks sake!!

My mom didn't give me the talk at all. She gave me a book to read.
