I have honestly thought you were a girl for the entire time you've been at DreamViews.


Oh and I was > 11 when I found out. Although I can't be any more specific than that.

So did plenty of others. At least you aren't alone, eh?

I have no clue when. Although I remember being really confused about what goes where until I was about 14 and learned it in health class in school.

Never had the talk with my parents either. GAH, I can't even imagine.

I never had the talk. My old friend told me about it when I was 11.

Lol for some reason, I'd find it extraordinarily uncomfortable if my mom were to tell me about it. I'd much rather of preferred my dad I remember when my cousin first found out about it in junior high...he was all psyched up about it and said his mom (my aunt) was going to buy him a pack of condoms to try on...I found that kind of odd.

i can imagine how that conversation went.

One of my classmates told me when I was in 4th grade... But I didn't know that's how women got pregnant. I thought she meant it was just something silly that couples do, like making goo-goo eyes at each other.

I didn't grasp that people did it for pleasure or for reproduction until I was a teenager. Up until that point, I thought women had babies out the rear, though I didn't really think much about how they got there in the first place.

I did hear people use the phrase "sleep with" when talking about getting women pregnant, but all I pulled from that was that a man and a woman sleep in the same bed for a while, and the woman gets pregnant.

I heard about it in school at around 4th grade, in a very oh-get-over-it controversy. I was the only one not grossed out when I saw the image of a vagina.

I saw my first penus when I was four. It was my baby cousin's. "Ah! Why's he got a sausage on his belly?" (I never ate Vienna Sausages again).

I learned about it in fifth grade, when my teacher shouted "PENIS VAGINA" really loud to the class during our sex ed. unit. Apparently, it was to get the gigglyness out of our systems. DX

Until then, I thought that some sort of hormone made a baby when a woman found a man she "truly loved." Oh, and the baby came out of the belly button, just like on the stuffed animals. Oddly enough, I had witnessed fish sex many times before learning about human sex, and didn't think anything odd about the way the male molly would poke his rod-shaped gonopodium into the female's butt...

And positions! I thought that people did it just like a dog until several grades later (when I learned that wasn't the only way)!

This pretty accurately describes my pre-history of thoughts on the pregnancy stuff.

Early, but I cannot say from where.

I never had a talk from either parent, and I'm pretty sure I was never lied to. My first serious exposure was around Year 4/5 (Um, I think this is 8-10 years old?) in sex ed. There was a video with a (married, of course) couple walking around the house inexplicably nude, with a narrative and close ups explaining the parts.

Girls watched a different video, so afterwards we boys keenly discussed the video we had seen, and about the woman in particular. Except for one, who wouldn't shut up about the man's "willy". To this day I do not know his sexuality.

Also humorous was the guy (thankfully not naked at the time) in the video talking rather too enthusiastically about masturbation. I believe the smiling goon used the word "jet" one or two times.
