During that early stage of adolescence, I possessed a rather limited understanding of the fascinating and complex realm of human relationships and sexuality. While many of the jokes and innuendos thrown around on television evoked a sense of discomfort in my mother, they went right over my innocent and oblivious head. In my youthful naivety, I firmly believed that sex was exclusively reserved for adults and held no relevance to the lives of children like myself. They say kids pick up stuff about sex at an early age, assimilating it in all sorts of ways, mixing truth with fiction and imagination. It wasn’t that way with me. For me, sex was a subject that simply did not exist. It just was not a part of my world. Well, that changed pretty quick.
