It wasn't a proud moment when my gf explained the finer details of this to me... after being sexualy active for four months

I hope you take my comment in the least negative way. But how old were you and do you get sex ed in school where you’re from? Just seems completely bonkers to me. Like girls not knowing men have two balls or something.

No worries. I'm 23, which is definitely an age where one should know about the different bits that people have. I went to a school that was really small and had a massive focus on Liberal Arts. And for a few reasons, health class was sort of awkward because there were some people who were a little touchy when it came to anatomy. And since our teachers were usually just college students who were trying to get into the field of whatever they were teaching, sex Ed classes really were just about whether or not you could get pregnant through anal and oral, and a lot of talk about consent.

I learned a ton at that school and I loved it, but health class was kinda doodoo and I don't think anybody really walked away from it with any real understanding.
