Many people lament that they had inadequate sex education, and it’s arguably still an imperfect subject today. What was it like for you?

    I honestly NEVER had ‘a talk’ with my parents, they just let me get it all from school sex-ed and the internet. Tbf, probably less awkward hearing it from our wacky PSHE teacher rather than from my parents. I think treating these things like an event makes them uncomfortable, and mentioning things in passing (should any topic arise) is better.

      I don’t get why it’s awkward. Sex is a thing. It’s important to know about. I would definitely talk to my kids about it.
