I’d say your post is pretty accurate, especially in my case. I grew up with parents who were kind of strict, both of them who are religious. So their views were and still are traditional. They disagree with homosexuality and other things that aren’t of their definition of normal.

Although my mom taught me some aspects of sex, she of course elaborated how it’s something to be done during marriage. Not before. With that, there was this stigma attached to it. And I guess that’s why I grew up feeling awkward when around guys. Or when people would talk about sex, I wouldn’t know what to say. That still applies me to now though, because I still for some reason feel so flustered around guys. And I still feel weird talking about sex, in person.

Referring back to me being judgmental, I mean what parents said about; sex, homosexuality, etc, I guess rubbed off on me. Because I thought people who would sleep around were doing something wrong, and I did think people who were gay, were probably going through a phase. That was when I was younger. Although my thinking has changed a lot when it comes to homosexuality, and other topics, I still don’t feel completely comfortable with sex.
