I always thought the egg-head kids were born vaginally, but the rest of us were born “normal,” whatever that meant.

I also didn’t know what doggie style was until I was 16.

Ha! No, that was just my creative imagination. Although years before, my mom had pointed to her belly button when she told my brother and I were going to have another sibling, so I’m guessing the idea stems from there.

To be honest, my parents were zero help. I saw an episode of Rosanne when Darlene gets her period, and only then did I get the book from the public library. I was 11 maybe? The book basically explained puberty and that was it. I even remember the cartoon illustrations of a boy on a diving board looking at women in bikinis and, um, you know, sporting something.

I guess I really had a time of it growing up. Somehow figured it all out- well, mostly. Maybe. Who knows.

Um…I don’t even know what to say to this! Bwahahaha. While all points are valid, I would never associate butt-licking with cholera! And I’m an epidemiologist! But it could happen. Hmm. Scary.

The one question I want to know is: what about your parents?! Did they seriously tell you babies came out of your belly-button?! I have decided that my kids will know everything. My mom gave me a book
