Is it normal to be naive about sex?
It's probably because I don't think of people in a sexual way, but I guess people assume that I would, for whatever reason. Maybe because I'm a guy.
In my teen years I shared a bed, briefly, with one of my sisters. My parents were upset when they found out and told me that I couldn't. I didn't understand why.
Similarly, I was told I wasn't allowed to be in a girls' rooms with her if the door was closed. I didn't understand that at the time either.
I finally realised why, almost a decade later, and I felt very offended that anyone would think I'd try to do anything sexual with another person.
I've learned from that. But now, as an adult in my mid 20s, I often have people misunderstand my intentions. I've been told it's because I treat men the same as women.
Or if someone tries to hit on me I don't usually realise it until later.
