Did your parents give you "the talk" ?

I was given a book. Sex talk didn't exist in our household.

No. My grandparents raised me and they don't believe in "the talk". I started reading books and such when I was 8 and started my period at 9. By then, I had already had many experiences, and knew probably wwaayy too much for my age.

My parents are Asian. I just think it would be weird. My dad did tell me that I could have sex in college, but nothing more than that.

Yes and it was horrific! My mother went to school for medical sciences, so she taught me with a text book. I unfortunately had my first period when I was 10, shortly after learning about it in school, so I knew what it was and the other stuff. My mother gave me the rest of the information for a text book. Not so much the sex part, or I blocked it out.

Oddly enough I'm a very private person this way when it comes to face to face talking. I don't want to know if another girl is on her cycle, I'm really not interesting in their sex life or anything like this. Men talking with each other about their sex life bothers me less, maybe because it's often bragging and not details, but I tend to tune it all out anyway.

That's funny -- I thought you would learn this in school? Anything I learned about the science behind sex was from school. The act of it itself...I actually came upon that by accident in middle school when I suddenly stumbled onto a porn website while searching for games....

Not really. I was given a book about the "birds and the bee's" which was a generic talk about it.

I'm trying to be more open with my own kids, especially my teenage son.
