I've been admonished on more than one occasion when the subject got anywhere near the birds and the bees not to go there. From what I was told, it is pretty embarrassing to get anywhere near that subject. For folks of any age--but especially parents--sex is a taboo subject.
What I can't understand is how any of us even got here. Obviously, no one's parents ever participated in any activities that resembles what nature provided for the propagation of our species. Ask anyone and they'll tell you they can't imagine their parents ever doing such a thing. I guess it's the miracle of virgin birth.
I do find it strange, however, that out in the real world the other living creatures seem to have attached no social stigma to the act of reproduction. There are many species that do form and live in pair bonds for their lifetime. So there is some type of relationship upon which they decide to create and raise their offspring.
But we humans, thanks to the keepers of our conscience, the religious and the pious, have placed such reproach upon what nature has provided for us, that it's only with shame and embarrassment can we discuss the natural facts of life.
I'm a believer in the assumption that people will do the right thing if given the opportunity. I think that by our very nature we desire to live within the framework of what's right and wrong. And I understand that is contrary to other popular beliefs.
It's when we make things that are naturally right and wrong, we create an inconsistency that causes physical, emotional and psychological contradictions. And that's when things start to go awry and the whole process becomes perverted.
So it may be time to admit that your parents did not find you in a cabbage patch, however hard that is for you to believe.
