Our daughter is almost 11 and I've already had the birds & bees talk with her but she's at that age where she has lots of interesting questions.

Today's questions were,

Mom, what part of your stomach are the babies stored?

A: In the uterus.

What's a uterus?

A: It's the woman's organ that keeps the baby snug as a bug it's also called a womb.

Mom, Where does the baby come out.

A: The woman's vagina

WHAT THE!!!!! HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN?!?!?!?!

A: It's like a rubber band and gets really stretchy during childbirth.

Well, if it's like a rubber band does it ever break?

A: Sometimes it does.

For the last month she's been running around saying "vagina" and then laughs her head off.

Never got the talk. Neither did my sister. Neither did my girlfriend. Don't really know anybody who has.

By and large, sex ed explains most, unless your school board is an abstinence-only curriculum where all they do is say "don't have sex. these are the things that can happen to you." I don't know what the girls were taught in it, but according to the girls I know, it was all well-explained. From sex, to STDs, to child bearing and birth.

Also, the "vagina game" has become big at my old high school apparently. Used to be the "penis game." I guess when you're an adolescent, those words are just all too funny. Never will understand. God I feel old...

Whatever you do (and it is bound to happen) don't let Grits talk to her.

Wait until she's 13 and asks about masturbation. That's a fun conversation.

Is it voodoo for girls? I ask because my girlfriend is under the impression that not many girls do it. Had to give her the talk. Go figure. How do mothers explain this to their daughters? My dad never discussed it with me, but I lived with my uncle for a few months around 12 or 13, and he threw me a Playboy one day. Didn't say anything at all.

My daughter just flat out asked me about it. She wanted to make sure it was ok.

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.

      Canes vs Panthers 7pm

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.

      QB School - Bryce Young vs Bucs

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
