+1,477 Talking about sex wouldn't be so awkward if children weren't lied to their entire lives beforehand, amirite?

Ever notice the teenagers who aren't pregnant are the ones who have close relationships with their parents(s) and are open with them when it comes to talking about sex? Obviously they're the ones who know about it.

Definitely....I know someone who was almost prego who had an alcoholic mom and a dad across the country...

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Yeah, I'm not saying that all girls who come from bad families are going to wind up pregnant, or that all girls who are close to their families won't, but it's been a proven fact that if you're not open with your family about sex, then you're going to get false information.

How can you be almost prego?

My parents are completely open and have always been. I still hold pretty old fashioned views on sex.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

See, here on amirite, we all know how each other found out about sex, yet a tiny percent have actually had it.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I haven't had sex, but I've done everything else. It was only with one person whom I thought I loved. I still might love them, but whatever. It's not my inability to get sex. It's just my personal moral views.

I agree. And also, I was on the homepage, and it was 7:59 pm where I live, which means it was a minute away from midnight in the UK, and then I refreshed the page at 8, and then there was a new POTD. It was cool.

I always assumed it happened once in a while like going to Disney or something. And then when I was 14 the conversation somehow turned to sex with my mother and she was like ....lol no its more often than that >_> and i was like wat gross why are you sure cool story bro.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Until I was about the same age (13, maybe?) I thought that parents only had to have sex once, and it was like unlocking an obstacle to have children or something. Yeah, I didn't watch much TV back then

The best part is the "are you sure"

by Anonymous 13 years ago

There's a fine line. Until a certain age I would like to think my future children will be innocent and not have to worry about sex or even know about it at all. But if they ask about it, I won't lie to them but will explain it as a normal thing that moms and dads do together. And of course, when the age comes, I don't want my kids to be the last ones in the school to get the memo like I was =/

I didn't know about sex until 6th grade. We were reading To Kill a Mockingbird in class and got to the part where Tom Robinson is accused of rape. I raised my hand and I'm like, "what is rape?" and everybody laughed at me :C The teacher said "when someone forces sex on you" and i'm like "what's sex?" and everybody laughed at me. http://ctrlv.in/72403

My psychology professor said it's best (if they ask) to tell your kids the truth about where babies come from. The same applies when they first notice that the opposite sex doesn't have the same body parts as them.

It didn't used to be like this, but I've been reading memo as meme-o (to rhyme with Nemo), and then I try and puzzle out what a memo is. It takes me a bit, but I soon realize memo is, in fact, an actual word. Internet words are messing with my internal vocabulary...

by Anonymous 13 years ago

The same deal with curse words. If they weren't so fucking taboo, they would fucking lose all of their fucking meaning.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I have no problem with cursing, but when people swear too much it makes you think they are stupid and have a small vocabulary.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It does actually. I have quite a large vocabulary, but my two favorite words are "fuck" and "fantastic". I don't use "fuck" in an actual discussion, but it gets peppered into my everyday speech quite often. I guess it's just a part of the average teen lexicon.

Wow...glad that I'm not the only one. I'm almost 19 and my parents never heard the word sex coming out of my mouth and neither did I ever hear it from theirs. Kinda awkward, it makes me think that my parents still see me as a 10 y/o kid, lol.

I was never formally told, but I heard people talking about it back in 4th grade talking about what rape was, I had no idea, then the Internet taught me that evening...

"that evening"... I like that dark element you put in your sentence lol

4th grade? Was there safe search on that computer? I can image some pretty traumatizing things for a 4th grader that would have come up otherwise...

I had to explain what sex was to my friend when I was 13. We were talking about boys and I made a joke, and she kind of looked at me with a blank expression. I asked her if she knew what I was talking about and she said no. So I said something along the lines of 'The penis goes into a hole in your vagina and stuff comes out and that makes babies.' She almost threw up, especially when she realized her parents did that. Later that night we went to a local skating rink and she stayed away from all men.

My mom never told me anything, I thought sex was simply two naked people having kissed. I was horrified to learn the truth later on...but hey, might as well start with the truth; less awkward, more natural and all that jazz.

I thought the same thing too, actually. Until I stumbled upon the definition in a dictionary when I was in fourth grade. Such a weird way to find out...

by Anonymous 13 years ago

My theory from the age of like, 6, was actually what sex is, except I thought he had to pee in her... -_- But my parents never EVER talked to me about sex. I'm pretty sure they think I don't know... ah, the life of a homeschooler.

pshh, the one to pee does not even count, I prefer to think of it as part of the dick hole, but not enough to be an individual.

Hey son, let's talk about sex. It's when your penis gets hard because you like seeing your partner naked, and then you stick your penis in her vagina while pulling it in and out, and then at the end of the process, you ejaculate white semen from your penis in spurts which causes great pleasure to you and your partner, making sex enjoyable. How more open to sex could you be???

by Anonymous 13 years ago

My parents have never explained to me what sex was, I learned it from a Seventeen magazine I found when I was in seventh grade. Before that I thought it was just groping each other naked. But when I was little, my mom told me that if you wanted a baby, you had to ask God for one. I was so confused about how people could accidentally get pregnant.

My older sister had this poster that said 'Beer: Helping ugly people have sex since 1862!' and I got curious and asked about it..at which point she decided that, as a second grader, I was mature enough to handle the truth.

My mom was very open and honest about everything. Though I stiII made my own assumptions. Iike that onIy mommies get periods (which Ied to me embarrassing my oIder sister when I was four) and that you can onIy have sex in a bed and since my dad said: you don't have to sIeep in the same bed to make babies; I thought the sperm wouId march over and impregnate the woman if they weren't sIeeping together. Scared me a IittIe.

My mom pretty much explained sex to me when i was around 4 or 5. then again she had to, seeing how my older brother and i found porn nd she walked in right then.
