Hey now - we're a Catholic family here
we're just more sane than my parents. I know Luis has been busier at work but IIRC his parents bought the boys condoms (is that right @Coqui ?) Not all Catholics are dumbasses like my parents were about that subject.

like, "if you don't want kids right away, use these on the honeymoon. The instructions are inside." ??
Don't know, don't wanna know.
Kids are disgusting.

I've been nothing but a disappointment.
I'm great at that though.

They didn't buy us condoms. They just told us to use them under any circumstances.Hey now - we're a Catholic family here

I never had the talk. My dad was always (and still is) very introverted, and never likes to discuss anything that makes him uncomfortable. My Mom, she never really engaged in uncomfortable talks with me because it's really awkward for a mom to talk to her son about sex and penis things. She left that for my dad to do, which he never did. I had to figure it all out on my own.
Come to think about it... my parents never really engaged me much in those "life's lessons" kind of things. You know... the "How to's" of life. Sex, shaving, changing the oil/brakes on my car, cooking, laundry... None of that kind of stuff. It's all shit that I had to figure out on my own. Mostly trial and error... except the oil/brakes... that was one that I knew that trial and error may end tragically so I did my research and looked at the process before disassembly. The sex though... for a long time I thought my penis squirted milk (obviously that ended when I tasted it... lol., j/k, I learned otherwise in sex ed.) I thought this because boobies make milk and make the baby grow, so a mans milk goes into the woman and a baby grows. Sound logic, right?
Hmm... This explanation might just be the epiphany to explain my psychological issues...

i suppose not talking about it at all is better than a live demonstration, right?

Oh I thought your brother had a box that your parents bought (when we were in college). At least that's what he told me.
We encourage waiting till married (obviously, cause Mormon) but we do make sure and throw in "but if you do have sex don't be an idiot and use condoms." One day we'll get into what condoms actually are and how to use them. And be we I mean John. I'll teach Haylee all about her girl bits and how to use a condon so she knows if the guys is doing it right but I'm gonna let the dad do the actual teaching to the boys.

That's like my buddy who taught his 3 year old daughter the 4 rules of gun safety and she can now recite them better than almost anyone else.

This could be interpreted to mean the opposite of your intent.
We never really got the talk either, with 3 older sisters it was fairly easy to figure out though. My mom never say is down and gave specifics outside of basic anatomy and that was done through health class lessons (homeschooled). Now, however, sex is talked about all the time with us being all grown up and married. With 6 girls and mom it's very easy to make husbands uncomfortable quickly without trying when we discuss anything related to sex or childbirth.
In his brother's room?
edt: ftr I wouldn't care if his parents had. I was no virgin when I met Luis
