But to be honest, the lesson was entirely lacking in the highly specific, varied nuances that come not just from having sex, but being sexually active and interested in other people (especially if they're of the same gender) and the myriad of sex-related stuff (trauma, errors, confusion) that comes to harrowingly define your teenage years and early twenties.
