They gave me a book that was supposed to explain everything, despite the fact that my friends and I had already pretty much pieced it all together. The book also included drawings of naked ladies, which I appreciated greatly.
Yeah. Probably sooner than my parents would have liked. But my brother and I had some interesting questions about what those tadpole-things were at the beginning of Look Who's Talking.

Yes, I was 8 or 9 years old and I swear to God it went almost exactly like this:
My grandfather (he raised me after my biological parents died) got drunk and told me a bunch of useless and wholly incorrect things about women and sex. This was spawned by a huge boob fetish I was going through at the time (ah, the more things change, yadda yadda yadda). I guess my grandmother thought that I should understand more about the opposite sex. I just liked drawing pictures of giant breasts. I wasn't interested in anything more than that at the time. It was all very uncomfortable at first, but as the discussion continued and the empty beer bottles piled up, the topic drifted off into other areas. Finally, he fell asleep and we never spoke of it again.
My parents fuck each other in front of me, that's how I learned.
And my parents filmed them and showed it to me and said "That's what it's all about, baby. Look at them go, just like greedy puppies feeding off a big old milk-filled mamma dog."
Nope I think they were trying to imply some stuff about that in some converstations but never got to anything specific and then I accidentanlly watched "porn" on TV when we where having a party , bored noting play with started browsing through channels and then... wow Cinemax what is tha-.. oh that's sex... huh.
I got the talk when I was about twelve, but I didn't really get it. My dad didn't specify too much about the whole vagina thing, so I thought all sex was anal for another year or 2. I had a pretty sheltered childhood, needless to say...
Sex education and biology was where we learned all the finer points about pleasure centres, nerve endings and cells turning into baby's. As for the whole "penis goes into vagina" thing, well, I think most people figure that out on their own.
Nope, the first Robert Crown lecture told us pretty much everything when we were 12. They told us not to laugh and be "mature" about it, but we laughed our asses off anyway. Good times
Not really. At the time I was living with my dad. Since he's the one that I inherited my high anxiety levels from he wasn't exactly about to have a sex talk with his 12 year old son.
Instead I found a discretely placed book about sex and body changes. There may have been a lone condom as well.
My mother attempted to have a full sex talk with me after she moved back in with us. I was 17 or 18 by this point and was already seeing girls pretty regularly. Too little too late on that one. In her defense she was probably drunk.

Your story reminds me of a little movie I love.
To the OP, yes, my sister (3 years older) and I got the talk from my mom and an encyclopedia on human anatomy - that and sex ed. throughout school.
The closest I ever got was my Dad telling me to make sure that I wash between my legs. This was like 3 years after I had sex-ed at school. I think the talk is dying these days unless your parents catch you making out when you're in 3rd grade or something. In 5th grade my school shipped everyone off to a museum where boys and girl were segregated into separate rooms where people talked to us about sex and showed us some 70s thing where kids were talking about a tiger having an erection.

LOL, I was the same way. I couldn't draw for shit though, so it was just stick figures with massive racks.
Never got the talk, but I got various interpretations about sex form clueless friends in about the 4th grade. Found out about the real deal in a science textbook.
No, and I don't know anyone who has... man, parents are really being lazy these days... also, does anyone understand why they call 'the talk' the Birds and the Bees? Not really sure how those two are suppose to get it on... i mean physically, a bird is like 20 times the size of a bee... plus they don't have compatible parts... so yeah...
My school had a sex ed program in the 7th grade or something, and my both my parents thought the school had no bushiness teaching that to me. Of course, I never got the talk from them either. Mostly learned all that through my friends and other school mates.
My mom gave me the talk when I just asked outright when I was 7 and my dad was at work. It wasn't terribly detailed or long, but for the most part I learned my penis will be going into some girl's hole one day and that's how babies appear inside a woman's belly. I've always been more mature for my age, so I just kind of answered, "Huh. That's weird." And then went back to playing on my SNES or something.

I got the official sex-ed school talk in 5th grade. There were some kids like you in my class, but what was funny was we just relayed the info to these kids anyway. So they only missed the pretty picture show and awkward questions. "Does it hurt the girl? What does sperm taste like?" Fuck, I wonder if teachers draw straws or something to choose who is the one that has to answer or talk around these questions.
Not exactly. My parents were very open about that stuff my whole life, so instead of one talk about all of it I got different parts throughout my childhood. I never felt like I didn't understand those things like other kids (especially girls) seemed to be so ignorant of.
Never, I was raised to be an asexual antisocial shadow on society, so they figured it was pointless since I was never gonna have sex. To be fair, they're currently right!
