A parent explains how to talk to pre-teens about sexual anatomy by keeping it purely biological. He uses a scene from Dinner for Schmucks where a character searches for the G-spot as a physical object, then walks through how he used that joke to teach his sons about anatomy without the awkwardness.
I'll give you an example of this. There was a movie out called Dinner with, I think it was Dinner with Schmucks was the title. It was a major hit about 10 years ago. There's a scene in there where they talk about losing his ex-wife's G-spot. He thinks it's a physical thing that has been lost, right? This person, they're saying it's not playing on an intellectual level is the argument here of this person. And he thinks it's been lost. So there's a whole comedy scene about this. It gets played throughout the movie a couple times. So it's PG-13. My sons are right on that edge. They're able to go. We go together driving home. I go, did you get everything? Did that all make sense? Oh, of course. Yeah, we got it. Yeah, no problem. And I'm like, okay, what about— and I named that discussion. And they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we got it. Okay, explain it to me. And they're like, uh, and I'm like, that's okay. Let's— I'm gonna tell you what it is. So next time you hear it, you're at least aware of what it is. I'm making it so biological that there's nothing sexy about it in the way we're having the conversation.
