12.  I remember when my grandmother asked me what my gay cousin
and his partner did together. I tried to get out of it by just saying "Use your imagination". She assured me that she had tried that and got nuthin'. Oy! When I explained some of the options, she said "I didn't really need to know that."

I just remind myself that things have changed mightily in the last generation or two. My mom's mom didn't prepare her to get her first period, and she thought she was bleeding to death. Showing me Walt Disney's "It's Wonderful Being a Girl" was a great leap forward.
