You’ve combined the two things together and said they are worse than one on its own. Duh.
The original poster is talking about the vast majority of kids today who do in fact get a decent sex education and if they see/hear their parents going at it, the ‘trauma’ is in seeing them in an unexpected context, not thinking Dad is beating mom.
I didn’t combine two things. One thing led to the other.
I heard mom moaning, so I was concerned. So that’s how I reacted, to go check on her. For lack of knowledge, what I saw led me to believe she was getting beaten.
The only reason I didn’t go back in with a bat was because my dad was naked, which utterly confused me since I also thought it was abuse.
I’m 42 now and have long since learned the facts of life and all. But what I’ve also learned is that you can never assume that anyone out there got a ‘decent’ sex education when they were young, if any education whatsoever.
