When I was about five or six I had a friend who lived next door. She was three years older than me and knew a lot about sex from her school friends. She always put these ridiculous ideas in my head about what happened during sex. In fact on several occasions things she'd told me had gotten me in trouble.
I don't exactly remember this, but my mother told me that when I was around that age, we were going to go out somewhere, and my parents were trying to get dressed in their room. I kept trying to go in, and finally my mom opened the door and said, ''Can we please have a little privacy?!'' I told her, ''I know what privacy means. Privacy means sex.''
