Growing Up Close To Nature Gave Me A Front Row Seat To Animal Instinct

During my growing up years we lived on a plantation in the tropics, and we were homeschooled. Sex education was all around us, and an open topic as the natural cycles were observed and celebrated. The people who worked on the plantation had rituals of their own. Open breasted, young for the first pregnancies. A pregnant girl was automatically married to the father, sometimes more than one woman was married to him.

When I reached the age for secondary school I went home to England and lived with my grandparents. I had grown up around the facts of life, my grandparents were very religious, and talk about pregnant girls was not allowed. If a girl came up pregnant, she was shipped off. This happened more than once, and after they came home, their babies stayed behind.

Bottom line, I knew more than most of the girls and got in trouble explaining how it was done. Missionary sex was normal, but on the plantation some girls had sex in the animal position. This was not believed, how could that happen? It happens, I told them, believe me it happens, and it might happen to you.

I was seventeen, a wedding, and the bride was inexperienced. I sat with her, explained everything, told her she was lucky, soon she would be a mother. That settled her down, girls then looked forward to becoming mothers.

I myself married at nineteen to an experienced man. Believe me, seeing is believing, but a man taking you is another thing. We weren't supposed to ever say we liked it. When I became pregnant, this one younger girl, I think she was like fourteen, asked me what happened. 'My husband took me, and I crawled away and he caught me. He got over me, took me like a farm animal. He left his seed in me. That, so help me, is what happened. Just wait your turn is coming'. And it did.
