What sex education classes?
I echo that - sex education was limited to the bio lab, and usually involved sexual and asexual reproduction of the hydra....

Killer Fry was a Para not a Royal Marine - people have been shot for less! Actually, you can have some fun with this - Paras and Bootnecks make much of 'hating' each other so you can wind both up simultaneously.

Fast runner - no but I'm very brave sitting at my desk in the Ministry. A bit like our beloved PM and his fondness for sending his troops into unnecessary, probably ilegal and ultimately unwinnable wars!

My daughter (Lower Sixth) is refusing to go to sex ed. classes.

She and her (twin) brother had a long discussion one night about how they were non-identical and why, all the way through 'A quetion of sport'

It had me in stitiches, they were 5 and a half, and they were absolutely accurate.

My oldest got a condom wallet in his Christmas stocking when he was 16, his friends thought it was very cool.

Citizen classes consisted of Mrs Ireland ranting on in a rather left wing style aobut the evils of the military, not sure what we were meant to learn but I certainly learnt nothing a bit like RS!!

I'm intrigued as to why ???

Incidently, if you hadn't left a space between 'sex' and 'ed'. and removed the full-stop, thus:-

My daughter (Lower Sixth) is refusing to go to sexed classes.

It would have given a totally different meaning to the sentence ??

She is not going because she reckons that what I haven't told her (and I haven't missed much) she will have more fun finding out for herself.

Fair enough, as last Sunday's dinner discussion was about the sin of Onan I reckon they know enough.

I think my son just threw it in as a new topic of conversation when it went quiet.

Not the usual ice-breaker topic... one would have expected upcoming films, the situation in Iran or even the menace of extinction of the polar bear, but Onan.....?
