Do You Remember 'The Talk' When You Were a Teenager?

We saw a film on it around 5th/6th grade at school. When my mom signed the permission slip, she said yah, she thought I should know about it . . . and I was thinking know about what . I heard bits and pieces of what other girls knew. The film was technical, but not about the "process" . . . I didn't understand how the egg and sperm would ever meet. I asked my mom and she said she'd tell me when I got married . So I never had a real talk with my mom about it . . . just kinda had to learn along the way from others.

I learned all at school from older classmates. My parents thought I was too little and never went beyond bees.

no I don’t think my parents and I ever had a talk like that from what I recall but yours made me giggle. I did ask how babies come out and my mom said there was a little red door and when the baby is ready to be born the doctors open the door or something like that she told me. I was always so baffled by it. I wound up finding out from a book at a book store.

It delayed my love life by several years. But I am OK with that.

My mother gave me a book to read with all the facts.

I didn't have my talk.

My mother asked if I knew and I said, Yeah, I know... Nobody really told me, I just had instinctive knowledge.

We never had a talk. I don't remember how I learned about "things". I learned about my period in Campfire Girls. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
