School was the first place I learned about...well, the technical aspects of it all. Parents were closed off, so...yeah, that went nowhere. Friends, of course, tell all sorts of tall tales, so you "learn" things from them, as well, but it was mostly school.
 
🎵 Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees
And the flowers and the trees
And the moon up above
And a thing called love... 🎵
 
I guess friends in school, and, naturally, hormones. :halo:
 
School. I never got 'the talk' from my parents, and my friends were too immature about the whole thing to say anything of educational value.
 
In my country, talking about sex is a taboo, even today, in the 21st century. As far as I know, schools don't provide any education on the matter, parents don't talk to or with their children about anything, and everyone are too busy staring at their phones to even notice the opposite gender. I'm surprised people even bother to put their phones down long enough to copulate.
 
Television / Movies... We also had HBO and Cinemax. They'd show soft core porn on there at night.

We didn't have the internet when I was young, kids these days are exposed to so much crazy stuff!
 
Parents and friends. By the time I was in 4th grade, kids were cracking sex jokes back to back.
 
School and television, maybe my mom can't really remember.

School and friends. Certainly not my parents (they're Mennonite). :LOL:

Mennonites? Does that mean you have ten brothers and sister's? My ex-wife's family were Mennonites though her parent's weren't practising anymore. My Father-in-law had 17 brothers and sister, my mother-in-law had 12.
 
School, although friends gave me incomplete (and often incorrect) bits of information before I learned about it properly!
 
My friend Philip at school in England. My parents certainly weren't the type to discuss such things. I was raised in Ireland until the age of 8 so you can imagine what it was like.
