I must have been about 4 and my cousin who was a year older than me told me. She described it like this; "The man puts his willy inside the girls fairy and all the little men come through and go into the girl and they all get together to make a baby!"
My Mum told me the main bits - all the being in love with someone and what having sex was for and that it feels nice but then she bought me a book for kids so they can understand. I loved that book, taught me lots. I think I was about 8, it meant I didn't have to listen to all the ridiculous rumours about what sex was when I was at school.
I think that's a good way to find out. My parents automatically assumed that I would find out, and I did, but I think I'd have preffered if they'd been the ones to tell me. As it was, it was friends telling me the 'rudest word in the world' was 'sex' and then finding out what it was when a boy at school told the class what it was by reading the definition out of a dictionary. I got the facts, but I'd rather have been told by someone I care about like my parents. - A month ago
That sounds like an easy way for a parent to give 'The Talk.' I used to have a book that was all about the human body, and was aimed for kids about ten years old or so - it wasn't until I was about twelve that I actually used it for a bio project and saw what it actually had. I already knew what sex was by then, though. It was a dictionary that told me what it was. I'm such a nerd (proud of it) - learned about sex from a dictionary. Lol. At least I got good facts from it. - A month ago
It is an 'in your face' world we live in, so I can certainly imagine that. I'm certainly surprised, though, that this choice is so popular so far. I thought that friends would be the most. Personally, it was from a friend reading from a dictionary. - A month ago
Answerer
You know what, I didn't really think very hard before answering, I definately learned a lot from t.v., internet, and movies. but most stuff I learned from my older sister. I remember learning what "virgin" meant when I was around 9 because she called me one, and I said "no I'm not!" lol - A month ago
Question Asker
Lol. We had kids going around in my junior school asking people if they virgins. Others would come up and say that you should answer "no," and we would. Eventually they'd explain why that was supposedly funny. To an eight year old, that's not funny - it's just one of the strange things older kids do. - A month ago
Well, I certainly didn't predict that one. I suppose it would be quite a normal thing to see/talk about. I have two uncles who were farmers, so I can imagine. - A month ago

Honestly I learned a lot from porn, I didn't sit there and watch it for hours but I was curious one day and I had never done it of course so I wanted to see what it was like, I must have watched something really mild lol now that I think about it.
But other than that just from people and my boyfriend who took my virginity helped me a lot, and then of course I wanted to be really good for him so I just started looking into new things. hope that helps
Surely you want the good facts about sex, though? Porn is so unrealistic. I'm sure that your boyfriend can help you with that, but didn't you have anybody tell you, or read anything real? I'm not knocking you, I'm just curious. - A month ago

I contend that in our society we are not taught how to have sex. Sure we have sex education in high school where the conservatives would have us...

What is your favorite outfit for a night out with friends?
My style is usually casual and chic. I have nice legs so I normally show them off with shorts but not too short, just above the knees with a nice blouse or tank top. I love accessories especially necklaces so one will be hanging around my neck each time.
I also like to match what I wear to my shoes and bags so either will be the same color as my tank top or shorts.
How do you style your hair and do your make-up?
My hair is just above my chin and is straight because I just had it straighten. I don't do my hair much just let is fall naturally because I like it the way it is.
My makeup is just the basics, light foundation, blusher, eyeliner, mascara, eyebrow pencil and lip gloss.
