I got something akin to the talk from my da when i turned 18. I already knew everything but the talk still occured.
Consisted of "I'll buy you your first pack of three and if you get her pregnant, you're marrying her"

We used to have a satellite dish that picked up German channels. One night my father was flicking through channels and came across a show where a couple were having sex on a stage whilst a crowd cheered them. He paused on it for about a minute and then carried on channel surfing, adding "don't be ashamed of sex". This seems like a decent way to handle it. If a picture is worth a thousand words, a video clip has to be worth a shit load.

OT: i asked my dad last year about why i didnt get the talk to which his reply was:
Martyn, you're 19 if you aint got it by now you will never bloody get it.
I found a book in the playroom in my local church when I was eleven. It taught me the basics, and I just thought "Oh, so that's how it happens." The talk? Thank the Lord, no.
my dad kind of walked around the door and threw a book at me... told me thats all i'd ever need to know and walked out again. i'd "missplaced it by the end of the day...
I got "The Talk" at the age of six, although it was never summed up in ONE talk.
Just gave me a book "Sex and you" with some truely disturbing pictures. I did find out about it that way, and it has been a part of my upbringing from the day I could understand what it was.

My family, in particular my mother, is a bit strange. We're rather open. I was introduced to innuendo at the age of four. By the kitchen table. But I've never had a normal 'the talk' with anybody, I figured that out on my own when puberty hit, more or less.
I did find my older brother's 'magazines', but I was young and didn't know the difference between 'generic woman' and 'naked chick', so that was alright.

my talk was basically "If you get a girl pregnant you'll be stuck with a little bastard and be paying child support out the ass for the rest of your life, so don't have sex" thanks dad!

Never got "the talk," what with dad gone and mom working all the time, but a nice little class in 8th grade decided to explain everything. Not that I really cared or anything, though. I was too busy trying to learn more ways to kill people, especially with fire.
"The talk" is one of the thing I consider fairytales that people try to implement into reality. Do you REALLY think it's a necessity?
It's good that school handles some of the finer details, but you can figure out the basics on your own just like a lot of other stuff in life. To that end, I do not endorse purposefully "protecting" children from such information. (Albeit being a bit discreet just like you are around other people is fine. I never said you'd shove it in their faces.)
