As a young woman, I have had my share of some truly knees trembling, sky opening, good kisses, and some eyebrow lifting, body tensing, horrid kisses.

Adults give some really weird advice, especially when it comes to sex. Sometimes it can be sound health advice, like peeing after sex, sometimes it’s crude, like if it looks weird, don’t go near it.
