re: #37 HappyWarrior

What I don’t get about some conservatives is that they want us to keep kids in the dark about sex.

Funny thing is, I was kept in the dark about sex. My mother couldn’t even tell me about my period without using a pamphlet from the doctor. Her idea of sex ed was telling me not to have sex before I was married, and that was it.

If I hadn’t had Judy Blume’s books, or some of the teen magazines I was reading at the time, I would’ve been totally lost. I had to figure it all out pretty much on my own.
