Who was the first person to give you info — correct or not — on how to "make babies"?

Oh goodness this is a funny story. One of many where I mortified my mom.
So I was 7.
There was this neighbor girl who had grown up in a remote area of Africa. Apparently Rachel had actually seen sex take place around the village several times, so her parents, being wise, had explained what was going on.
Rachel thought my education sorely lacking, as I only knew the body parts, and who had what.
It was dinner. we were all around the table, and I was in a bit of a strop.
Well, to be fair, I was an extremely bright child. there wasn't much that I didn't understand or figure out, so to not understand all that Rachel had enlightened me with was very hard on me.
Finally it came out.
"Daddy, (my mother says she was never so glad to hear that word in her life)" He paused, fork half way to his mouth. "Is it true that a man has to put his penis in a womans vagina for them to have a baby?"
Silence.
Expectant silence.
My mom was eying my dad, wondering how he was going to get out of this one. Dad hurriedly put the fork in his mouth to get more time. I was looking as skeptical and sure of her self that a seven yr old can. I knew he was going to prove Rachel wrong.
"Well Bekki…." began my usually eloquent dad. The things they don't tell you before you become a parent!
He proceeds to talk about a man loving a woman, and stuff, and basically confirms everything that Rachel has told me. The whole time I'm shaking my head saying "I don't believe it, I just don't believe it."
I look to my mom for confirmation. She was several months pregnant with my brother. "Your dad is right" she informs me.
You'd think I'd give in…but no. Vehemently I aver "I'll just have to see it to believe it!"
My mom said. "Well It will be a very long time before that happens!"
Well, technically, I'm still a-waitin', but I'm a believer.
P.S. This is one of 2 stories my mom has threatened to tell at my wedding, should I ever get one…she usually mutters something about revenge being sweet…
haha….good one! π
That's a wonderfully funny story but your mom should still not tell it at your wedding. No, no.
well i figure if everyone i know knows it ahead of time she won't be able to tell it…so this is all part of my master plan π
hahaha! great story!
Yeah i have several special talents. Asking difficult questions, embarrassing my parents. Yeah I have lots of stories…my mom has many reasons to want to plan my untimely demise.
HILARIOUS!
toooo funny!
