I'm curious what others learn from their mothers, (or what guys slearn form their Dads) about sex.
My mother and I have more of a friendship relationship then a Mother/Daughter one. And although most of my life and development we were a pretty Christian home, my mom never really beleived in Abstinence only education. I feel she gave me great lessons, and did a great job creating a relationship and environment I could come to her if I had any sexual concerns. I'm 21 now and still talk to her about csconcerns. I'm vauge and don't give details, but it's nice to have someone experienced to talk to if I am concerned about anything.
What I remember my mother specifically teaching me about sex is:
A) Sex is not a recreational activity, like say swimming or rugby.
B) To keep yourself from being tempted to have sex as a recreational activity, have sex with yourself. Using a vibratior that takes nothing less then C Batteries. Anything with AA isn't going to be powerful enough and it will drain them fast.
C) Never withhold sex as a punishment for a guy. It's possible you will cave and have sex with him anyway because your turned on, and that will negatively impact your relationship.
D) DOn't feel the need to identify your sexuality in high school. You haven't experimented enough yet to really know.
Although I don't 100% agree with everything my mother taught me (Specifically D, just because I feel it is possible to know your sexual orientation without experiementing, but I also know that some feel the need to experiemtnt. and partially B, because technology has come a long way, and some great vibrators take AA and some crappy ones take C's), I feel as though what she taught me was rooted in good intentions and overall had a positive message. I learned about birth control in school, so she would answer questions I had, but these were the pieces of information she volunteered.
What did you learn from your mom?
