My sexual education had a few details missing - when my parents gave me the "birds and the bees" talk, they completely left out the part about sexual intercourse. Therefore, I believed, until I was almost 16, that you could get a woman pregnant simply by sharing a bed with her. I subsequently deduced that the reason silk sheets were considered sexy, was because the sperm could travel on the slippery surface far easier.
