Birds and the Bees
Posted: October 14, 2002 1:10 am
A father asks his 10-year-old son if he knows about the birds and the bees.
"I don't want to know!" the child says, bursting into tears. "Promise me
you won't tell me!"
Confused, the father asks what's wrong. "Oh, dad," the boy sobs. 'When I
was six, I got the 'There's no Santa speech'. At seven, I got the 'There's
no Easter Bunny' speech. When I was eight, you hit me with the 'There's no
tooth fairy' speech. If you're going to tell me that grownups don't really
have sex, I'll have nothing left to live for."
