Did you really know what sex was (or that it even existed?) at 9 years old? I'm still waiting for "the talk," and as Mom and Dad are both gone I suppose that ship has sailed. I got a rough idea what goes on in my teens.

When I was a Freshman in 1979, I had NO idea what the kids were talking about when the dirty jokes started coming on. BJ? No idea. That is the way it should be.

I literally went to college completely naive. They liked to make fun of my naivety all the time. Once at a party someone brought up oral sex and they all started shushing because I wouldn’t know what it was. I immediately and proudly announced that I did! They didn’t believe me, so they made me prove it by telling everyone. So I proudly said, “you know, it’s when you talk about it out loud, say what you’re doing - orally. It’s like, ya know, verbal sex.” 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ I was sooooooo naive. I’ve never heard louder laughter in my life. One friend who was endlessly kind took me in another room and kindly explained what it was. I was red for weeks. And grossed out. 🤣🤣
