Did your parents teach you about sexual things?

Question

I was talking to a girl about some sexual things, and somehow it slipped out that her mom taught her how to give a blow job. Of course, I had to ask her how that class went... she said she asked about it and her mom instructed her on her guy friend. Not actually doing it herself; like in p*rn, just giving her pointers until he came in her mouth. I was thinking, my parents never told me anything about sex really, is this all that common? How did your mom/dad teach you?

Nope! My mom, always wanted to have the "talk" with me, but it creeped me out and I always

said no!

It's a little embrassing, but I kinda learned about sex, from my younger cousin. Me and

her were having a conversation about tampons and she was explaining to me, were you

put the tampon. And she told me that " you put it, in the hole where the boy sticks his thing"

and I said "okay". That was it, that's how I learned that.

Everything else I learned about sex, I learned from Google and Wikipedia, they have

pictures. Very detailed pictures lol!

There was one thing my mom told me though, we were watching a movie on the Lifetime Network and somehow the topic of oral sex came up. And she said to me " giving is yucky, but recieving is wonderful. So, if you ever find yourself in the position to recieve, do so." I said "okay" and changed the subject lol. True story.

I've always been very open with my parents about sex, not like going in to details of being like 'I had sex last night, his semen tasted interesting'...but more just like actual discussions about sex ed, my mother took me to get contraception and luckily has no qualms about me having boyfriends sleep in my room. She unfortunately knows that I lost my virginity and told my dad and that was a conversation and a half. The actual physical side of 'if you do X it will feel good' no, and I'd never wish to have that kind of conversation even if my mother wanted me to...Basically, my mother was a hippy who has slept with more men than I'd care to think about. This kind of stuff is nothing to her.

Oh, and she bought me a very colorful, very informative book when I was 11 that taught me everything I need to know.

physiologically, yes. when I was 2 they gave me a book. how babies are made.

but as far as sexual experience. nada. THANKFULLY. oh gross seriously, I could not take that.

i learnt everything I know from the clan of the cave bear series. BY Jane M Auel started reading it when I was 6. Good stuff ;)

The Sex in clan of the cave bear was hideous. essentially constant rape. But valley of the horses was well, there's nothing like it and u-tube. n.o.t.h.i.n.g. Tho, I could definitely do without the dialogue.. or the story behind it for that mater. Excellent technique tho. Then, it pretty much costs, in the subsequent books.

My mom walked in on me when I was masturbating once and told me I was going to hell if I continued. When she left I said to myself, "Yeah but I'll feel god damn good on the way". I was 9.

That is disgusting.  A kid outta learn everything from his school yard chums and p*rnography.  Parents should be distant and disapproving on the subject.

My mother told me some things directly...

I overheard her talking with friends a lot...

I'd hear her and men going at it..

A few times I spied through the slightly open door...

But no, she never sat me down with a guy and showed me anything...

We did spend some time one afternoon with a box of condoms, some banana's and some lube...

Absolutely nothing. If I ever have kids (and that’s a huge if), I plan on being open with them about anything they ask.

My parents basically acted as if sex never existed, never had the talk or anything of that nature. I honestly think it really affected me until I met a guy who taught me everything.

Not detailed information. Just some typical and obvious sexual things. I learned details on my own.

My parents told me nothing about sex. I had to learn it in sex ed or p*rn.

We never talk about sex in my family.

She once told me to use a condom each time, when I was around 12 or something. Not a very useful tip back then.. Anyway, I'm glad she didn't tell me anything else

WTF It's not common in my family.

My mom tried to teach me about sex but she really talked about birth control and the basics. No demonstrations. Not even a picture book.

Thankfully, my school had a few classes every year and they taught us quite young so I was able to make smart decisions when I got older.

I have heard of mother/daughter being close, but that is gross.  I couldn't bear the thought of that.  However I know two girls that had to teach their mother what a "hummer" is.  Guess as the mother gets older its funny, but teaching my daughter...no freaking way.
