When my mom gave me her version of the sex talk she mainly focused on all the bad things that go along with the filthy act. Weirdly, the one thing I remember being most worried about was that in order to get pregnant I would have to get naked in front of a boy. Luckily, I don’t worry about that anymore! The other funny thing I had in my head was that since the only time I was commonly naked was when I took a shower, I imagined that mommies and daddies made babies in the bathroom and had to do it standing up.
My husband told me that when he was little and was told that girls didn’t have penises no one mentioned anything about testicles, so for an embarrassingly long time he thought girls had balls.
What strange ideas did you have about sex before you got it all (more or less) figured out?
