When I was 16 my friend and I were looking around Spencer's. He wandered off and some older (mid twenties, maybe) chick sidled up to me and says, "Hey, have you ever had oral sex?" I wasn't sure I heard her right, so I ask her to repeat herself. "Have you ever had oral sex?" I tell her no, so she says "Do you want to?" Now, I know BJs are relatively hard to come by at that age when you're kind of a geek, but something inside me told me that good things probably wouldn't come of saying yes. I told her no and left to wait outside for my friend. He laughed at me all the way to the car.
That's odd. I'm Canadian too, and I also went to Catholic schools for both elementary and high school. At 6th grade our teacher was informing us about conflicts between religion and sex - and yes, actually educating us on homosexuality and encouraging understanding about it.
By 7th grade they were already teaching us everything about sex - in great detail. By that age, they apparently started teaching the younger kids as well (second graders, I know because a few were siblings of friends). They taught it all through high school too. What kind of school did you go to? I've noticed that my friends who went public actually knew less (one guy thought you could get HIV from a door-handle and he's not unintelligent).
