(I'm just gonna keep this in this thread in case but yeah..plus some swearing)

I dunno about you but when did people start thinking Disney and other related companies were just for KIDS? Family movies and the like are for the WHOLE family, not just KIDS.
"OMFG THERES... SEXUAL STUFF IN KIDS MOVIES!" Seriously, wtf?
I believe the kids would be going with their PARENTS to watch the movie. THUS, there need to be something there to ENTERTAIN THE ADULTS.
Bitch all you want about the "symbolical messages" everyones handing to the kids, but YOU'RE the one whos lost innocence because of that. The kids? Well, they don't know shit about whatever you wanna complain about because they still have their innocence. "Omg, my kid just saw the word sex!" Seriously, unless YOU, or the actually form of media EXPLAINS what the fuck sex is to the child, they'll probably think its sort of food, toy, etc, then what is actually is. So..ugh!

Oh my god completely relating WTF moment the other day.

I was talking to my boyfriend on the phone and somehow we got onto the conversation of sex and contraception with his 15 year old sister. Which was all fine and good happy to help, until she turned round and said that if she ever got pregnant young she could just abort it anyway. I was like O.O. The girl didn't even know the proceedures of abortion depending on how far gone you are and said that me and my boyfriend using the Implant and a condom was being paranoid. I was just like Abortion is not a form of contraception!! Not to mention that she didn't even know what the Implant was. V.V

Haha I love the topic of sex.
Mostly BECAUSE of it's sense of taboo, but also because of how different people react to it.

My dad's version of the "Sex talk" was him telling me when I was 14 [or 13? god I can't remember XD] that he would, "Rather you look at porn online, in books, or in movies, than go out and figure it all out yourself."
Which, I have to give him credit for, is a pretty good ideology. That whole "Look, don't touch" thing is probably the right thing to tell a 13 year old.
But considering I'd learned about sex at 5... it wasn't the best thing to say for ME personally haha. I had no desire to look at porn OR figure it out on my own. *cough* anyway, no lectures XD

My mom never gave me a talk. But I think she sensed when I was... er... "A woman"? People have such varying definitions of that; Whether it's when you're capable of conceiving, or when you've lain with a man... regardless.
She talked to me more openly about anything, not just sex. While no one in my family is going to start talking about sex in detail, we are all pretty comfortable saying snippets of "Taboo" subjects.
Like sex jokes, or the occasional bluntness that is prevalent in my family X_x

I am of the belief that kids should only be shielded from sex and other topics until they are their own person.
For most, that's around 8-12. It's when most start looking at the "bad" things when they're told not to, and if they've never been exposed to it, they're rather likely to tear off likes hell's hounds are on their heels, and figure it out for themselves the hard way.
But I don't think they should be sat down at 8 or 9 and told "Here's a penis, here's a vagina, babies come from here", far from it. I just think it's that age that censorship should probably cease for the most part, and let the natural course of society, and life, take it's reign.

I mean, if you think about it, girls used to get married off at 12 to get with the baby making... so whyyyyyy are 15 and 16 year olds today so sheltered?

I agree, I feel like eventually everyone does it and it's not too vulgar. I just feel like it's the way it is because of the people who do it far more often than they should and are super vocal about it. It shouldn't be looked at the way it is. How much sex you have shouldn't be a big deal and if it wasn't I think a lot of things would change; in all honesty I think that there would be less people wanting to just go out and have sex all the time.

It's just been implanted in us since we were younger that sex is bad and you shouldn't do it till you want children.

I do like that I can go to my mum and talk about it with her in a calm mature way, she wanted to know if me and my boyfriend were doing it and I got to tell her that we weren't because I know I'm not ready for it. And we talked about all the things I should do when I do feel ready. It was really a relief to know she was open to talking about it instead of just preaching that I shouldn't do it at all.
