In Sex Education at school
They never mentioned this
To the awkward class of 13-year-olds.
They laughed
(But secretly hoped they'd answer the question
about wanking turning you blind)
And the girls got free sanitary towels
And books about their cycle and them.
In Sex Education
They warned us to expect pain
(somewhat akin to a punch to the gut)
once a month.
They never mentioned the pain
Of tight leather and whalebone or steel
Crushing your ribs
(let alone that you might enjoy it).
In Sex Education
We practised putting condoms on bananas
As they told us that Doing It
Was a mutual act, where both parties
Had to be equal.
They never mentioned how being
Either in charge or powerless is the best part
United and goosebumped in anticipation of
That first delicious thrust.
This is my Sex Education;
How to tie knots; Which wrist action to use;
The right pressure for biting, and growing my nails.
They never mentioned this.
I like your version of sex education muuuuuch better.
