谈到“性”

女儿三年级的时候，我知道他们四年级要学生理卫生了，于是我就先给她个“head start"，给她讲了‘egg and sperm，if they meet, they become a baby, otherwise they will get out of the body.’ 我讲完以后，她一本正经地说： “Is it true that I am the only one that was hatched, and all my brothers and sisters were dead??"  我大笑，不知道怎么解释。



刚来美国时，我去妇科医生那儿去做检查，医生是老外，她问我： “Are you sexually active?"  天哪！我们在中国学英语，谁学过这方面的词汇？？ 我不解的说：“What is that?" 医生看看我，没说话。


这大概是我最尴尬的场面了。
