30 .... shit 40 years ago when I was a kid ... sex education came from kids who were one or two years older than you ... hustler magazine and porn videos.

I think I was about 20 before I properly understood what sex was and I had to learn it all on my own.

Freshman year of college, my friends group had to explain how stuff works to a member. She'd just gotten her first boyfriend and really needed The Talk.

My mom handled things by just leaving out a copy of "What's Happening to My Body?", but then again, I was a very bookish child.
