Poll: What age did you learn about ...

[The Seldom Seen Kid]

I knew guys had sticks and girls had holes, so one day I came up to my friend:

" Dude, I just got this funny idea...
- Yeah. That's how sex works.
- !"

I think it was in 4th grade. So I had to be around 9 years old.

 

[ZydrateDealer]

At about 7 I knew of it but I didn't understand it till I was 11.

 

[Merkavar]

sex ed in primary school but im sure i knew about it before that

 

[Koroviev]

I didn't really understand anything about it until I was 11 or 12.

 

[Super Toast]

Eight, methinks.

Fourth or fifth grade is when they started teaching us about sex. By that point though, I already understood the biological reasoning behind it, just not the precise details. I remember watching a video in fourth grade with kids explaining what sex was, and they were all saying stuff along the lines of "sex happens because people really love each other," and sitting in the room thinking to myself, "No, sex happens because we're biologically driven to pass on our genes." Yes, I was in fourth grade. Yes, I thought this.

 

[Dfskelleton]

I think eleven.

 

[Buccura]

I think I was 10 but I'm honestly not sure.

If you broke your quiz up in to "5-8", "9-12" and "13+" I think you'd get a more interesting skew.

I was about 6... my dad taped over one of my power ranger VHS' with pay per view porn...<.<

I saw my dog outside on the front lawn getting boned by the neighbor's dog. My parents then had to explain what they were doing. I was nine at the time. They were the kind of parents who tried to keep me away from this sort of thing. It came to me as quite a shock.

 

[drzoidbergmd]

Walked in on my parents when I was seven...never looked back or unsaw.

 

[DSK-]

About 10 or 11. I remember asking my parents about it and they just explained it all. Nowadays it's the otherway around, though

 

[archaicmalevolence]

Like around 8 and it revolved around a class of kids saying "it goes where?"

 

[Thamous]

Whats sex?

 

[Piction Froject]

Not any exact time frame except real early. Then I got to fifth grade and my eyes were opened.

 

[A Weary Exile]

I was never given "The talk" but I did watch a sex ed video in 3rd grade, didn't teach us that much. Honestly I'd say the internet taught me most of what I know.

 

[K4ndY]

I'd have to say I started being aware of the concept at around 7 or 8, but only learned about the "finer details" when I turned 12.

 

[spiffleh]

Heard the idea at like.. 5 or 6. But I didn't /get/ it until sex ed in gr 4.. so really like 7 or 8.
