Did your parents teach you about sex? If not, how did you learn?
My parents didn’t teach me about sex. I didn’t know anything until I was 15 when I woke up with white, sticky stuff in my underwear. I had no idea what it was or how it got there. I don’t remember how I discovered masturbation, but I found a Penthouse magazine under my brother’s bed and took it into the bathroom, locked the door, and masturbated while looking at the pictures.
I ejaculated a lot farther than I expected and it went all over a large mirror. I tried to clean the mirror with toilet paper, but all I did was smear it. Pretty sure my parents knew what happened though they never said anything to me.
So, did your parents teach you about sex? If not, how did you learn?
I don’t think they did, not that I remember anyway. I have a vague recollection of the school doing a class for everyone talking about all that, I think around age 11ish
My dad didnt tell me anything. My mum did try to talk with me and told me some things. When I asked her help though (didnt want to have sex with my first boyfriend yet and didnt know how to say no), she was of no help. She ignored my freaking out over it and even made me sleep in one tent with him. She felt really sorry when I later told her I lost my virginity at that time and regretted it. It was my own fault though, I should have been strong enough to say no. She really tried to do it better than her own parents though, they didnt tell her a thing.
I learned about sex from books - one called The Birds and the Bees, and the other a Christian book called Preparing for Adolescence. I was about 12 when I read that one.
No. I didn’t know what masturbation was until two years ago (freshman year), and that was only because my friends talked about it. I didn’t even know how a dude’s part looked until that year as well! We had these talks in 4th/5th grade but I covered my eyes and ears because it gives me panic attacks or anxiety. It’s still a taboo thing for me and I’ve never had sex, can’t get turned on, etc., so I don’t think about it. Ever since hormone therapy to transition into a boy, they said I would get more libido or something, but all that’s changed is that I think about naked men maybe for a few seconds every other week. That’s it, I guess. I will lie about getting turned on by people or something like that, or liking boobs/butts, but they do nothing but disgust me (I mean, I’m gay but still. Dicks gross me out as well).
I don’t really know what’s wrong with me. Sex scares me a lot, even now when I’m supposed to already have lost my virginity, it scares me and I freak out if anyone comes close to me. I’m just dysfunctional
My parents told me quite early how babies were made, but it made me think sex was only for reproduction purposes.
My mum tried to talk to me about masturbation, but being an awkward teenager, I covered my ears and went “Eww mom! No!” and left.
A day later, I found two books on my bed. One was about periods, and the other was about safe sex, but again, it made it seem like at was all for reproduction purposes and nothing else.
I discovered masturbation through some friends when I was 16, because they literally told me how to do it since I’d never done it, but I didn’t pursue it until like 6 months later.
I still see sex as something unnecessary, and the “need” for sex as just another primal urge that people should control. I think people blow sex, and the supposed pleasures that follow, way out of proportion, and that we’ve been somewhat brainwashed by the media and various sitcoms to think sex is needed it order for relationships to function and people to be happy.
I don’t blame my parents for my somewhat asexual view on sex. They did everything by the books. Heck, when my mum caught me and another girl on top of each other, all my dad did was put his legs on his desk, lean back and said “Well, at least she can’t get you pregnant. Stay safe.”
I got a very basic sex talk from my father which went in one ear and out the other. The thing that marked me out straight off for bullying was my naivety about sex. All the other boys were boasting about their sexual knowledge and I revealed I knew next to nothing.
Yes my mom did. When I was 8 years old we read something that had the word “gay” in it only it wasn’t even using it in a homosexual sense it was using it to mean happy. But I asked what it meant because I didn’t know and somehow that launched into the talk I was pretty fascinated and decided to tell all my friends at school and my mom got in trouble with a lot of parents wahaha.
My mom and dad initially agreed mom would give all the girl kids the talk and dad would give the guy kids the talk but dad never did his share so none of my brothers got it lol. I don’t think my sisters have yet, they’re 8 right now. Hopefully mom learned her lesson from me to wait a bit longer LOL.
I was maybe 8 or 7, my brother and my male cousins decided it was funny if they scare me and tell me how a woman gets pregnant.
I think I went home and vomited, it was shocking.
Then around 3rd grade when I was 9 I guess, 5 -6 of us girlfriends got a porn videotape from a male classmate, we watched it together for like 2 seconds before we all screamed and turned it off
Then I was like 15 or 16 when I lost my virginity. It was not fun, until like I was 18-20.
So, no my parents never had the talk. My mom is still very religious and so when I had my period, she told me some ■■■■■■■■ like men do not know that a woman gets her period and what it is so I should keep it a secret
Yes, my mum taught me all she could about sex. I think I got a talk from her around 9. I already knew about it by then since I was having sex and fooling around with my girl friends since I was 5.
I was pretty fascinated and decided to tell all my friends at school and my mom got in trouble with a lot of parents wahaha.
