Loaded question

I thought i had dealt with most of the 'complicated' questions the kids could throw at me (bcoz we already did the 'making babies' & 'having babies' part from eldest to the youngest) but boy was i wrong.

As we were playing with the kitties together in my room, AH suddenly dropped me the bomb, "ma, orgasm tu camane?"

Eeekkk.

Having to explain the sexual act was tough enough. now the big O plak?!!

Sheesh.

How to go about explaining it to an inquisitive but innocent 13 year old? how to tell her enough so that she understands... and to not be prematurely turned on by it yet not be completely turned off by sex either. at her age a lot of sex related stuff is considered to be rather 'yukky' lol

So i took the practical approach. just as i did when i explained reproduction. love and stuff tu dah memang an ongoing topic.

"First thing sya, kan ma cakap sex tu sebenarnye for procreation. forget about all the hype, all the frenzy and go back to basic... takde sex takde manusia, and at some point nanti kita semua akan pupus."

The moment i said the word we both had this silly grin, "haaaaa, mawi!!!!".... lol trust us to go dragging the poor unsuspecting dude into the discussion.

"Ok. Allah maha kaya so HE knows. HE had to make sex terribly exciting otherwise dengan computer game laa, golf game laa, segala macam game laa nobody would bother. semua sibuk dengan hal masing2 langsung terlupa nak procreate".

Tergelak anak dara saya lol.

"Remember i told you that the gabra and excited feeling you had when you saw that cute guy was something natural? that you shouldnt fight it or be embarrassed but to accept it and try to control sikit2? actually tu boleh kira macam introduction to sexual excitement laa tu."

Ooh, i had her full attention now.

"Pasal tu laa kita kena careful sangat sebab klu tengok pun boleh excited karang klu dekat2 pastu tersentuh pulak, lagi excited. and it becomes a big problem kalau belum kahwin sebab we're muslims. kalau tak dapat kawal perasaan boleh terlajak."

AH's rather incredulous "betul ke? "

"Ya yang, memang boleh terlajak. remember God had to make it very exciting, pastu not only that, ada plak org yg ke3 tu yang sengaja menggoda2!! so akhirnya, kalau dua2 terlajak jadi la zina, kalau sorang terlajak jadi la rape."

"So back to orgasm. to make sure sex tu interesting enough sampai org tak terlupa, God created a feeling orang takkan dapat kat mana2 pun. macam the ultimate excitement laa, super duper roller coaster pun kalah. kalau sya excited tengok budak tu, jantung berdetup berdetap, ngilu jari2 semua, imagine feeling that way 1000 times over."

AH ternganga tapi cuba control lol.

"And macam mama selalu kata kita kaitkan balik dengan science. orgasm ni partly contraction, macam org nak bersalin"

"Ha sya baru nak cakap," she smiles. ingat gak laa dia part reproduction dulu tu lol

"Dia macam berkait tapi opposite. contraction untuk orgasm helps the sperms get to the eggs in the womb quicker. contraction untuk beranak plak helps the baby leave the womb faster. so semua ni Allah dah atur cantik2 and sebab HE is always fair, bila kita work hard buat babies kita dapat reward which is the orgasm."

"Orang lelaki?"... aawwwwww man, she wasnt letting me off easy.

"Orang lelaki pun ada orgasm. the same excitement tapi kesan je berbeza. org pompuan dapat contraction org lelaki dapat ejaculation. sya tahu kan yang keluar sperm tu kan?"

My girl nods vigorously. like i said we did reproduction already. but she drops another bomb.

"Ha ah, masa masturbate pun kan".

Sigh. tu lah i keep forgetting she has brothers and her friends pun tak kurang inquisitivenya. nampak gayanya i might as well go all the way... alang2 selok pekasam. it'll be worse if she gets more info from sources yg tak begitu reliable la kan.

"Hmmmm. macam ni. bila sesuatu tu teramat laa sangat bestnya, mestilah kita nak selalu kan? macam pergi travelling ke, makan sushi ke, tenguk citer best ke. so balik pada yang tadi.. basically sex berkait dgn kahwin berkait dgn procreation berkait dengan orgasm kan? tapi adakalanya sebab best sangat feeling tu, setengah org nak orgasm tapi tak nak procreation. so ada la masturbation.. orgasm without procreation. macam syok sendiri."

"Remember i told you pasal the female equivalent to the penis? ha ah, clitoris yang kena sunat masa sya baby dulu tu. so just like the penis, its one of the sources for orgasm sebab dia sensitive sangat macam the penis. satu lagi the G spot tapi tu mama citer later2 k. alright, sebab dia sentitive sangat laa tempat dia tersorok klu tak senang je org nak orgasm. pas tu 'ter'ejaculate plak, spurt sana spurt sini. bayangkan sya *kitorang terkekeh-kekeh ketawa*. sebab tu jugak la kena susah-susah go through all that specific motion baru boleh ejaculate klu tak terkena2 skit dah same thing, spurt spurt lagi" *sampai sakit2 perut tergelak*

"Mama tak kata masturbation tu totally bad sebab in dire circumstances dibenarkan tapi its something you should never ever fool around with sya. nanti mungkin membawa kepada perkara2 yang tak diingini dan org tak kahwin lebih2 lagi laa kena careful sangat. jgn nak experiment2 pun tau sebab mana laa tau nanti ketagih plak kan ?!!!! bahaya sya !!!!! klu camtu mama kena kahwinkan cepat2" ;)

AH shrieks "Heeee, mana ada.. tak nak aahh !!!!"

And thank god my torture ended right then & there lol. berpeluh even in the air-cond room lol. to the rest who might be going through the same thing with their kids esok2, i wish you the very best ya !!!!!

p.s. Sya if you're reading this, just dont worry your pretty little head too much over this ok yang... it'll start making better sense as you grow older, trust me :)
