I'm guessing my dad mentioned this because no one else was in the car. It was the shortest "discussion" of any topic in our history. I don't know exactly how old I was, 12 maybe? He basically said, "You know about ... when a man sleeps with a woman" "Yeah"

Luckily our elementary school covered that topic. I'll bet my parents were relieved to not have to deal with discussing it. But still I had remaining questions . . . so when I asked my mom, she said she'd tell me when I got married .

I don't remember ever having 'the talk'. I just remember having conversations with my parents, as I got older and having milestones in my life.

I was never taught it in school or by my parents. I learned it from my friends when I completed school. One of my friends was a womanizer, and I learned from him.

@pinkfloydfan I got shown a film about bunny rabbits at school and never knew what it was about till years later. It was the headmaster who supervised the film show very sternly and our lady teacher didn’t attend. Later at school our class was informed that it would fall off if we played with it. None of us could figure out what “it” was. No context whatsoever.

Interesting.. Is it because Ireland is a little more religious?
