I was told to ask if I had any questions. I learned all my sex ed from school and scrambled Cinemax.

Late night Cinemax was my teacher... 😱.
 
Nope, never got the talk. Instead, my mom checked out some sex books from the library and handed them to me. I specifically remember one of the books explaining sex...

"When a man and a woman love each other, they want to be as close as physically possible, so........."

same exact thing happened to me with my parents.
 
Nope, never got the talk. Except for my dad randomly blurting out:"If you knock her up, I'll give you a case of beer and a smack in the head."

I love my dad. 🙂
 
My mom's advice was to "always wear a raincoat!"

I had sex ed starting in 5th grade, so I heard everything before they needed to talk to me.
 
Yes....right in the middle of the freaking season premiere of Star Trek: NG. :|

I was/am still pissed!

It wasn't even anything really useful. Nothing about safe sex.
 
When I was eight, I was leafing through the World Book Encyclopedia and saw what looked like a moose's head and it caught my attention. Next day in school, I was the coolest kid ever.

Since I was the smart kid in the family, I guess they assumed I had already devoured the encyclopedia and never gave me the talk. My older brother did get the "use protection" talk but I never got it (because they assumed I was too geeky to score with a chick???)
😕

Oh, I'm 21 now.

Edit: I typed my age wrong the first time. I was eight, not seven. Just remembered that it happened in Winter '93.

LOL Why bother? If you see your kid watching Star Trek: TNG, You know you NEVER have to worry about your kid not having safe sex.

j/k Love Trek myself

My speach was "If you knock her up, don't come home"
