what was the weirdest response from any child you've ever expierienced while showing them the birds and the bees?


In 6th grade we were told a week or two in advance that we were going to be taught about sex in place of our normal gym class. We had to have permission slips signed by our parents, so this alone raised flags that there was something different, and even taboo, about what we were going to do. And at that age, I didn't know anything more than having deduced the basic premise that the boy enters the girl.
So not knowing what to expect (and gym class usually was "physical education" in which we would do "physical stuff"), for the days and week beforehand I got it in my head that we were going to each be paired off boy and girl and shown how to have sex. So this raised all kinds of questions in my head, like who I might be paired off with? How weird would it be between us? Would we kiss before? Would we have to undress in front of each other? Would we actually have sex, and if so would all of the students be doing it in one big group or individually? Were they going to roll out cots or something, or would we go into a private room together? The worst part was that there were an uneven number of boys and girls and I wondered what would happen to the people who didn't get a partner. Or worse, what if we had to pick partners and nobody wanted to be with me.
Needless to say, this isn't what happened. Boys went to one room and girls went to a different room, and each got the "your body is changing" filmstrip presentation.


One of the kids at my school said. Do you have to keep having sex to keep the baby alive. If only..


That's actually a good question for one completely ignorant of the process.

Yeah, it does actually kind of make sense.

Yeah you gotta keep building the baby out of jizz until it's ready.

If you forget to have sex a few days before the baby is born, the baby will have a chunk missing from his head or he may be missing a leg or something.
