Except for that Geo teacher from your school

P.E Teachers are always the ones who are the paedophiles, except for my Geography teacher.. He was just a one off.

I wonder if other people found it difficult learning on their own and would've preferred lessons from an early age easing them into it. I think if they tried teaching stuff like that to my class in school it would've been a giggle fest.

We never had sex ed in high school which I always found strange, my sister's year had to put condoms on cucumbers..
I can sum up my entire childhood sex education with one statement: Cinemax after 11pm.

Dunno what that is, I assume it's the same as Babestation. Which is where I first got an idea of women..

This is how it's done where I live. Primary 7 (11 years old, last year of primary school before secondary/high school) are given basic sex education. Although it was about ten minutes of talking about how you're going to get pubes and the girls are going to get periods etc, the class tended to be split into boys and girls for that point. Then the basic biology of how a kid was made and then about an hour and a half of scare mongering about paedophiles.

That's pretty much how it was when I was in school.

Babestation and the Divas on WWE wrestling were my 'inspiration' as a young boy

5 minute previews we had it so tough when we were younger

If you got aroused by Eurotrash I am concerned, I remember watching it with disgust. Either you wasn't fussy back then or I was just a pretentious 11 year old
