Not that there's anything wrong with that.
I could see it with a Barry Windsor-Smith Conan more than a John Buscema Conan.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Aside from the fact that he would snap Hec like a little twig.
That sounds like a good talk, msbelle.
My mother tried to have a sex talk with me at about that age which involved anatomical labeled drawings that she drew herself, which was embarrassing for all concerned.
I pretty much learned from romance novels, which is not ideal, I guess, especially since Jondalar's giant womanmaker was a little unrealistic.
I'm trying to decide what to do with the rest of my day. I'm thinking about going to a movie -- either Hugo or the Muppets. I need to buy some presents. I need to go grocery shopping, too, and that's got to be soon, because I don't really have anything to make for dinner. For presents, I wanted to try to buy as much as I could from local businesses rather than Amazon this year, but most of what my family wants isn't available locally. (There are enough books on their lists that I'd buy books at a local bookstore if I had a local bookstore, but the local bookstore closed last year after a dispute with their landlord, and they keep announcing that they've got a new location and will be opening again "soon," but it hasn't happened yet.)
8? 9? I don't think I started looking at porn until I was 12 or so, perhaps when I discovered my uncle got the Playboy channel. And then at home, I was always sneaking down to watch Cinemax.
Before then, I remember seeing Coming to America with my parents and, I think, covering my own eyes when there were boobies on the screen (which, I believe, were the first boobies I'd seen). And when I watched Candyman at night by myself, I again covered my own eyes when there were boobies on the screen. I can't imagine looking at porn when I was 8 or 9. I am pretty sure my parents and I never discussed sex at all.
Beautifully said, msbelle!

Both have their charms...and by charms I mean...
msbelle, you are the best mom that kid could ever have! Hang in there!
I believe I've mentioned before that my entire sex talk from my mother was "You've read enough to know...."
I've never had an actual sex talk with my parents.
Never really got with the porn, but I totally read novels that were too old for me.(ie. many dirty parts, not like "All The King's Men") my dad "caught me" reading an article in Cosmo about a lady who had trouble breaking her hymen w/ her boyfriend and freaked out. I was sixteen. But that same year(or thereabouts) my stepmother insisted he bought me that Playboy with the paralyzed model in it(Why? trying to get me into makeup/pleasing dudes?)
