With three children aged 9, 11 and 13, sex education and the ins and outs of growing up were bound to come into this program somewhere. When you take into account other young characters like Andy and Ollie, and Jimmy Junior and Tammy, you've suddenly got a whole lot of people who seem seriously confused about sex. The fact that Tina's first line in the whole program is "My crotch is itchy" immediately sounds alarm bells ringing. Some of the best lines include: "All right, I need one of you in front of me and one of you behind me at all times in case there are booby traps" "Booby, booby, booby, booby..." (Louise, Andy and Ollie) If boys had uterus's theyd be called duderuses" (Tina) "What doesn't break my testicles only makes them stronger" (Gene) If we see any mermaids Im gonna ask them where their merginas are (Tina) "Kissing is like a fight with lips" (Louise) If those aren't enough reasons to teach your children how bodies work, you might as well just give up now.
I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
