Ingredients for a cake?

[ash48]

So it's semester 2 at school, which means sex-ed. time. Teaching and talking about sex to 11 and 12 year olds is always interesting.

I usually start the sessions with an informal chat and encourage questions. The kids really seem to like it and it's amazing how comfortable they become during the session. I can usually address most questions. But this kinda left me lost for words (which is fairly rare).

"Miss, can you put sperm in a cake?"

Ummm... hang on, one minute we're talking about egg fertilisation and now you want to discuss cake recipes?

Of course my brain is going ... well you can actually swallow....., no that might be a bit much, well it tastes kinda .... no not sure I want to go there just at the moment....

And this is just the first session!

*checks internet for a sperm cake recipe*

I hafta say I had nothin' either!

Once I settled the class down from the general "eeeewwwww" I think I said something like "it won't kill you. You could, but, um why?"

Then my brain was filled with pictures of teaspoons of sperm going into a cake mix! Then thinking about actually getting the sperm ...oh dear! Lucky they can't see my brain! :D
