when i was seven, i asked my mum what sex was. she explained that two people who loved each other, blah blah, slept together, and a man's worms went into a woman and made a baby. i believed that the two people actually slept, and that sperm was an actual worm that had to crawl from where the man was lying across the bed to the woman.
