I knew what sex was, at least as much as I could know without actually experiencing it myself yet, but I thought the birds and the bees was somthing new that I couldn't wait to find out. When my older sister decided to "teach" me all about the birds and the bees, I was so disapointed because I thought I'd be learning something new. I said, "that's it, that's the birds and the bees? I already know that stuff!"
