Who taught you about SEX?

was listening to Micheal B. discussion about promiscuous teens today. I also thought about Steve Harvey's book telling women to adopt a 90 day rule. I hear woman say they LEARNED so much from the book. I wonder are the women Steve is talking about, promiscous teens who didn't learn. If that's the case, most women still don't understand and "appreciate" what it means to share their body.

These questions came to mind..
Men/women who taught you about sex? (ex porn, friends, BF/GF, parents..etc)
When did you learn and/or have you learned to appreciate "IT" and not give your body away like you're sharing M&Ms?
What advice would you pass on to teens today who are considering or engaging in sex?

note:For those that say don't do it! Let's keep it real.. "Don't do it.. only works for a small percentage"

FYI: If this has been discussed before pass it by...

I wasn't really taught about sex because it was not a discussed issue in my house. I just tried it with my first boyfriend and it didn't go so well. I do appreciate my body now and I will definitely be applying the 90day rule in my future relationships. Unless its an ex that I had a previous relationship with. Well I told my brother that he should always protect himself first and foremost. And be very aware that women get VERY attached after they have sex with you. So if this is somebody you don't want to be with for a long time don't do it.

Well I am reading the book now and it makes a lot of sense. I was in the 9th grade and I had 2 friends in the 11th grade that taught me everything .. They were some grown ass freaky heifers but I wish I would've waited because I appreciate myself so much more now. I work in the medical field and I understand what certain thing do to your body .. Just because your desire is ready does not mean you are physically ready to go there. Lets be real .. When you are young you are dumb and you think that nothing will ever happen to you but the truth is there is A LOT that can happen. I see teens in my office with Herpes and all kinds of diseases. I would definately tell them to wait bc its not worth it at such a young age. I think that sex ed and parent education on sex should be a hell of a lot more truthful and explicit.

Well, my parents gave us book knowledge of sex and my dad once tried to expand on that by telling us that sex was like taking a shower. I really didn't learn until I got married. He was the only man I had sex with and I took the opportunity to go to secret parties and learn on my own with my then husband. I have always been a person that saved sex for a meaningful relationship not just casual fun. So, the 90 day thing is something that I was doing anyway. You loose alot of men who want to have fun that way but oh well. I looking for something that will last.

Advice I would give to the kidies! DON'T DO IT just wait.

I agree Con its more than physical. Kids arent ready to handle everything that comes along with that, hell some adults cant handle it.

I learned about sex/relations when I was young. But I think that all kids do. I think we start learning about it the minute we start going to school. You separated from the girls when you use the bathroom. Then learn that grabbing bootys and french kissing is exiting. It eventually develops a curiosity for going further and thats just the natural human progression. We are sexually beings that is what separates us from other animals. We need to embrace that animalistic nature in ourselves sometimes. Within reason of course.
