Apparently, by the age of five, kids should already know that...

- "people's bodies are different sizes, shapes, and colors
- "their bodies belong to themselves"
- "touching their sex organs for pleasure is normal" (wonder what the catholic church would say to this, though *hehe*
- "it takes a woman and a man to make a baby --- how the baby "gets in" and "gets out"
- "a woman does not have to have a baby unless she wants to"

A child's sexuality need not be an uncomfortable topic (mind you, I need convincing, as well). We have teach our kids the right values before someone else does.
