Even though they told us in sex-ed all about sperms and eggs and cell reproduction, they never actually told us HOW the sperm got to the egg. I had to figure it out for myself. So until I put the pieces together, when I saw teenagers making rude gestures simulating vaginal intercourse or heard them talking about it, I thought it was just another foreplay activity, and not the actual pregnancy-causing act itself.
