I am sure that everyone in the world, has that awkward moment in adolescence where in whilst watching tv along with ur parents very innocently, suddenly out of nowhere comes a sex scene / scantily clothed women and suddenly every1 looking elsewhere and coughing praying for the moment to pass by quickly... luckily for me my parents have a relatively open view to things ... i never felt embarassed abt watching baywatch even when Yasmine Bleeth or Pamela Anderson ran in slow motion along the beach coz it was just a normal thing, nothing to be really embarrassed abt...Indeed i never understood what the fuss was about when it came to watching Baywatch for a long while...
However, even my folks drew the line at long sex scenes...i remember my mum's reaction to me watching Titanic and later French kiss when the sex scenes came in....she almost screamed at me for watching blue movies.. :)
neways, thanks to a much older group of fellow travelers in my school bus, me was wise abt the birds and the bees very early probably by the 5th standard... later, having sex talks by doctors in school meant that i had the education by the best authorized people as well...i guess i should really be thankful to Deep Vihar for the number of sex talks that they organised...i remember pretty much 2 in a year for 6 years!!
coming forward to the first time, i spoke to my dad, it was at the age of 14..a frd of mine had been receiving crank calls from a guy who said that he wanted to sleep with her...at which time i advised her that she needed to report the no. to the cops, post getting a caller id ..dad hearing my part of the conversation asked me what it was all abt...told him that a guy was bothering a frd saying that he wanted to have sex wid her..dad was so shocked at me uttering the word 'sex' , he immediately went away from the room and 5 mins later i found him reading the bible!!!!!!
that incident still has me in splits...how my dad followed up trying to talk to me abt sex, 2 days later after having a few hushed whispered conversations wid mom is another joke altogether...i rem the akwardness wid which he ambled ard in my room for abt 5 mins before finally asking me whether i knew abt it...to which i obviously said yes mentioning the doctors who had already given us several talks,..dad gave a huge sigh of relief and almost ran away...hehe....kickass!!!
I hope i have an easier time of it when it comes to my turn to impart knowledge!!!
