69. Getting "The Sex Talk" from your parents

August 1, 2011 by Edwin C. 23 Comments

Oh yeah. You know, when your parents first talk to you about intercourse?

I could just end this post now but I won’t, even though there isn’t much else to say about this situation. We will make this educational. [Read more…] about 69. Getting "The Sex Talk" from your parents

61. When your parents talk about sex

July 18, 2011 by Edwin C. 8 Comments

“Dear Edwin,

I have to tell you about a situation that happened with a friend of mine. While a friend and her family were in the living room together, her mom looked through a book about sex for couples. This would’ve been fine, except her mom decided to comment on the book.

‘This book has a lot of good points, but they forgot one thing: the usage of toys for women who can’t have orgasms during sex. I’m one of them.’

According to my friend, her dad was just there not saying anything. Awkward.

Sincerely,

Trees.”

I know what some of you might be thinking.

Edwin, I don’t believe this is awkward. My parents and I talk about this topic all of the time and we’re all very mature about it and and and…

Alright, then use this post to find out what the other 97% of the population thinks.

Well, Trees. .

Yes definitely awkward. What is a person supposed to say when a parent begins to talk about such a topic? Nobody wants to think about their parents doing it no matter how old you are. When sex gets brought up in a conversation and your parents talk about it, it can be a pretty uncomfortable situation. I’m curious to know how the rest of the conversation went, or if her dad ever said anything about it though.

Talk about awkward. . what do you guys think?

46. Not knowing if someone's baby is a boy or a girl

June 17, 2011 by Edwin C. 14 Comments

Ever bumped into someone on the street that has a baby in a stroller, or in her arms?

You take a look at the baby and realize: Wow! What a cute baby! And of course, just out of curiosity, you might want to ask questions to find out the baby’s age. Not a difficult task, right? Wrong!

What if the baby is too young to be able to make the gender obvious to the observer? And you know, sometimes mothers can be extra sensitive about these things. . .

A person might end up asking “How old is it?“, or “Is it a boy or a girl?” First of all, why do people even refer to a baby as “it”? Even balloons say things like “It’s a Boy!”. It? Well anyway, figuring out the gender of the baby is very important here, and no sometimes you cannot tell by the color of the baby’s clothes. We live in a changing society, people. Pink is no longer a girl color, and blue is actually a favorite color of many girls. Besides, a lot of moms decide to make it extra difficult for the rest of us and dress their babies in orange or greens and yellows.

If you really don’t know, just ask “Is your baby a boy or a girl?” and don’t take a random guess by saying “He is so cute!” and then hear the angry parent say “She is a girl!” This is an awkward moment I would rather avoid.
