This couple didn't know what sex was...

[YellowRubberDuckie]

You'd think this story was in the middle of Bush's America, but no. It's in Germany. These two grew up in super religious families, and were never told about sex. They didn't find out they weren't doing it until they went to the fertility specialist, and they asked them how often they had sex.
Here's the link:

The link to the actual story doesn't work, but this is just too weird for words. How often do you think that is going to happen to the kids who grow up in this generation!?

1. WHAT?

I can see people not having sex (if that's your choice, it's all good with me) but to not even know that people, for the most part, must have sex to have children is amazing. Didn't they have any friends? Surely, they had to hear some stories about sex somewhere along the way.

2. I saw this on snopes - edited

it's a funny story for sure but it isn't for real

A shame it isn't though because it's such a great story.


I guess I was wrong - it's undetermined

7. Yes, it's not for real. It's some sort of urban rumor.

I heard this story years and years ago from our sex education teacher in school.
LOL.

5. Nobody has to teach ..

... the birds and the bees - why do humans need to be "taught"?

6. Well pandas have to be taught

That is why they had a hard time breeding pandas in captivity until they discovered that panda sex videos helped. I don't know if other mammals have to witness a sex act to know how to do it.
As for myself, my mother bought me the book "The Birds and the Bees" after I walked in on her boyfriend and her having sex when I was 7. My sister and I found porn and watched it when I was 11. It is hard to say if I would have instinctively known what to do if my partner had not if I had not had these experiences. I didn't know what was going on when I was 7 though.

8. I would have thought

that "mother nature" would have kicked in. With a sex drive and urges, they should have at least gotten the general idea.

9. Maybe they're both autistic?

:hide:

10. Maybe they both don't exist? It's a load of baloney.

And not for real.
