What's wrong with that? You think kids hit the age of consent having never before heard about sex?

Or is it that you think the discussion with his kids was anything other than excruciatingly embarrassing for them, and likely to have put them off sex for years?

We had channel 5 on during lunch at school and it came up SL the teachers rushed over to change it. Seriously were mostly 16-17 y/o. I think we can handle that.

that butt was far too big and therefore ugly

Just read an interview with a sexologist (or however you call scientists working in that field) who thinks that buttseks and gangbags shouldn't be topics to avoid at all cost in sex ed in school. "It's not like a majority of them watches porn anyway. So better talk about what they see there."

Hey man, you gotta get your kids prepared to deal with big booty. You think I want them learning that on the streets? Where it's REAL booty, booty that you don't know where it's been? Nah, I'll teach my kids about big asses in the privacy of our own home, using harmless, photoshopped, famous booty that everybody is comfortable with.

9 might be a little young, but it's not like my 9-year-olds have never seen a butt before.

Only Kanye can handle a butt like that. I've heard she had implants to get that booty, btw.

She's had implants to get that butt. And it's not so much the size of the butt, it was the proportions. I've got no problem with a nice bubble butt, but the photoshoppers made her look rather grotesque.

If they didn't change it, they probably would have been sued by the parents of some precious snowflake who would be scarred for life by seeing somebody else's butt. You always make a bigger thing out of hiding something than you do by being honest about it.

You can also make a bigger thing with thing implants.

And? Do you think 9 year olds haven't heard of sex yet? Obviously the kind of discussion you'd have with a 9yo is different to the one you'd have with a 19yo, but I'd say pictures of ass are a good place to start with discussing stuff like this.

parental prerogative. Nudity does not equal sexual. Instill that early and you have a head start toward some well adjusted humans who can appreciate both nudity and sexuality but know that they aren't the same.

To be fair, even in the pre-Internet days I had seen way more provocative things by the age of 9 than Kim Kardashian's ass. Remember it used to be okay to show butts on network TV? (Maybe not if you're still in school...God I'm getting old)

A 9 year old probably hasn't even hit puberty yet. Heard of sex? Maybe. Knows what it is? Probably not. The 14 year old's already seen it, but basically showing porn to a 9 year old is borderline corruption of a minor. Especially in this day and age.

Very few nine year olds have hit puberty, but what the fuck does that have to do with anything?

And I don't know what kind of community you grew up in, but I think everyone I knew had seen some porn by the time they were nine. Although in those days we fished it out of hedges at the bottom of married men's gardens, rather than finding it on the interwebs. Didn't mean much to any of us at that age, of course.

"basically showing porn to a 9 year old is borderline corruption of a minor"

That's not porn, for one thing, but anyway, no it isn't. It's the exact opposite when it's your own kid . It's a parent's job to bring a kid up, not lock it in a closet away from the world.

.

I don't know that it matters much anymore, when parents are getting arrested for taking bathtub pictures of their 2 year olds and being charged with child porn. Sharing it with the class was dumb.

No, it's normal (or it should be) for parents (or delegated responsible adults) to have those kinds of conversations with their kids.

And every case I ever heard of like the one you mention actually ended up with either nothing being done at all beyond the initial 'are these your kids?' 'yes' 'sorry to have bothered you' questioning, or with compensation being paid to the parents.

Well, at least he didn't show them those frontal shots.

I went to after school art classes during high school. My dad would always say stuff like "Did you draw some more pornography?"

I've known a lot of people with this approach. I think growing up in the US, we're exposed to this viewpoint pretty regularly. I was (IMO) rather lucky to have parents who were open to the idea that sex and nudity were not things which should never be discussed or understood.

Don't get me wrong, there is a time and a place for both, but the idea that either is, in and of itself shameful, is to me, ridiculous.

My parents are quite conservative in some of their views. I don't recall discussing sex with them eer

Before I was an adult I had frank conversations about sex, racism, discrimination, sexual orientation, evolution, religion, drugs, alcohol, politics, and most other topics that can be taboo in some families.

It probably helped that my grandparents were locally involved civil rights activists and that my aunt made clothing for local drag queens (this was in the 70's and 80's mind you) and that I grew up in a predominately Hispanic neighborhood as a white kid. I got exposed to a lot, and my parents did their best to keep my eyes open to what was around me.

I do recognize how that shaped me and have tried to take on much of the same approach with my own children.

In my household, growing up, we would have been asked if we had seen the image. Because we had no reason not to, we would always answer truthfully, and a discussion would ensue. This would have been a doozy. Though there is no overt sexuality in the image, there is no question that it would have made a prepubescent boy "feel funny". Arguably, this image is not nudity of a kind that one might experience in everyday life. The photo specifically conflates nudity and sexuality with the oil, the presentation, the fetishization of what is, generally, a private body part. Minors will be exposed to unusual things frequently, as they grow up. Helping them to parse and interpret these communications is the role parents should play.
