Birds and bees...days of innocence...

[daLady]

Kids nowadays know a lot more than we do at their age...
Share your pre-enlightenment days here.

I will always remember the 'talk' my father had with me when I reached puberty. It was awkward and all he said was " You are a big girl now so you must learn to take care of yourself." I said OK although I haven't a clue what he meant.

My grandma's advice was a little bit more detailed. She said that I must not hold hands with boys anymore, else I would get pregnant. And blur as I was then, I was actually concerned enough to ask her if it was still ok to hold hands if we play games in school. She replied that it is alright if it is out in the open and there are many people around. Didn't sound logical but I believed her.

I know I know...duhhh... but you really can't blame me... the only science lesson I had up to Std Six was Alam dan Manusia (KBSM)...and it was about karnivor, omnivor and herbivor. Biology lesson were actually enlightening :)

Be grateful that at least you've got Alam dan Manusia (KBSM). I only learned Ilmu Alam where we study about hujan tahunan, bentuk muka bumi, ibu negara, iklim, kepadatan penduduk dan lain-lain. :p

My mon and dad used to tell me that small kids cannot eat chicken feet or else the hands would be shaky. Not believing that they were telling the truth, but drumstick was always delicious. So, what the heck? Till today, still eating drumstick chicken/duck rice (gai bei / ngap bei).

Did your mom said you are big enough to tidy your own room but still young to cross the street by yourself?

well, i researched the birds and the bees in standard six, because all the stories we got (from adults as well as our friends) kept getting more and more ridiculous. when in doubt, turn to the World Book (or was it the encyclopaedia brittanica) - atilla, which one was it?

anyway, i can pretty much still quote the bit about sex.. so very clinical, and even though i looked up all the terms still did not understand how it would work...

Sadly, i think i solve the birds and bees puzzle by putting the pieces of the puzzle together. Saw dogs,cats,rabbit,chicken ahem..ahem.
So if all animals do that to breed....humans have to be the same also. Wham bamm!! Puzzle solved! I was about standard 6 then. :D

[Sila]

donno how come so innocent la - i'd seen dogs do it but still didn't make the connection - oh, people also do... :)

but if you ask atilla, she can probably also quote the passage from the encyclopaedia. i boasted in class that i knew what happened, and so i told my classmates. they didn't believe me so i brought the book (Volume Sa-Sh?). so i guess i can take credit for corrupting quite a few people in my standard six class... ;)

So how many cicak did you shoot down??!!

[daLady]

Puhleeeeze! Spare the rest of us the details ok.

I roughly recall this story told by someone about 3 little boys who had no female sibling. One day, the youngest boy saw a girl squatting and urinating by the roadside and happened to catch a glimpse of her genitals. Amazed, he told his brothers in Mandarin "Ke ke, kuai tien lai kan mei yu k*k* j*** de ren" (Translation: "Brother, quick come and have a look at a person who has no penis")

Anyone happen to know if these guys are from ACS?

[Dino]

Oh no!! Fishboy and Linkinfark strikes back......before this goes out of hand with the cicak count by Fishboy, please stay on course.

A father asked his 10-year-old son if he knew about the birds and
the bees.


"I don't want to know!" the child said, bursting into tears,

"Promise me you won't tell me!"

Confused, the father asked what was wrong.



The boy sobbed,
"When I was six, I got the There's no Santa speech.

At seven, I got the There's no Easter Bunny speech.

When I was eight, you hit me with the There's no tooth fairy speech.



"If you're going to tell me that grownups don't really get laid,

I'll have nothing left to live for."
