Of all the kids I have, the most challenging one to deal with is this kid.
“Mommy, what is sex?”
Sex is when a boy and girl muaks, muaks, muaks, kissy kissy kissy and then….
He got my message. Or at least I think he does. He grins a funny grin ‘cos he watched CSI, Seinfeld, Simpsons and all those stuffs when the brothers are watching. So, sex is that ‘thing’ you heard but don’t see.
Later in the evening, I told him to ask the father.
“Papa, what is sex?”
And the papa has to answer…
Boy is sex, girl is sex. Sex is gender.
Tiu, that man keep leaving me to answer all the sticky question.
And just now, when he was sitting on the throne after his poo, waiting for me to wash his bum, he asked,
“Mommy, what is penis?” He pronounced it like the Americans. (phe nus) At first I didn’t get it ‘cos I didn’t expect the question. And penis is peee nees to me. Or at least that how I would say it if I am forced to say it. Otherwise, it is always kukujiao lah, neow neow lah wateva. Goodness, I can’t say penis! I have never say P E N I S out loud before, you know?
So, he got annoyed as I kept, ‘huh? what is it?’
Penis!!!! What is penis?
Oh….nay this little thing is the penis. That little dark balls are your testicles and inside are the scrotum. All together they are your gonad.
If you think it ends there…..
“So penis is a bad word?”
Well….not really. It is not a bad word. But you cannot go around shouting or say it out loud.
Out of the toilet, I go scold the source of the problem. Your son ha….why lah must ask me every blardy questions? The whole day he never finish asking, “What is reject? What is attitude? What is hostile? What is …… ” Arrgggh….can die, I tell you!”
Why no one tells me it is like this? *pulls hair*

I feel that this is because our asian teaching that we are more sensetive to “SEX” that’s why when our kind ask us to explain. It’s is a bit embarest and not easy for us to discribe more. Until we ask them to learn from their school teacher. This is our weak point compare to westerner.
