1. When I was a kid, all my parents told me about sex was:
that it was something that men and women did to make babies. And that was it. I, of course, learned what it was all about from my friends 'round about the time I was 12 and I stopped wanting to throw dirt on girls and started wanting to hump them. Then my mother bought me some book about "the changes your body is going through" and I read it and laughed my ass off.
2. The first time I saw the genitals of the opposite sex:
was probably on television--late-night Skinemax or Showtime--though I really don't recall.
3. When I “played doctor”:
I would pretend to strap a friend down to my "lab table" and perform all manner of weird experiments on them, including but not limited to adding new limbs, robot parts, animal characteristics, and performing all manner of bizarre frankensteinian "surgeries" on them. Playing doctor for me had nothing whatsoever to do with sex and everything to do with the monster movies I watched religiously as a child.
4. The first time I heard about sexual intercourse:
I thought it was icky and something only grown-ups should care about, and then I went back to playing with my Legos and Star Wars action figures.
5. The first time I remember feeling sexually aroused:
was when I was watching Charlie's Angels when I was, like, five...and I got this special feeling in my weewee. I couldn't really describe it, but Farrah Fawcett seemed to have something to do with it....Then I changed the channel 'cause Spider-Man was coming on.
6. My reaction to the first joke I heard about sex:
I laughed my fucking ass off! What the hell other kind of reaction is there?
7. The first time I remember seeing animals copulate:
Watching two dogs humping in my back yard. I remember yelling at my grandmother, "That one dog's beating up on the other one!"
8. The first person I remember feeling love for:
A girl named Kelly Davis. In second grade. She was the only girl I didn't think was icky.
And that's it. I don't have anything to say about preparing my kid for the wonderful world of the humpin' considering I patently refuse to ever have kids, and if I did I'd be far too busy ignoring them in order in favor of writing music to ever explain to them what the hell it was all about. Let 'em figure it out on their own like I did.
Now, back to the interminable grading.
