They never discussed anything with me (not sex, not religion, not politics, get the idea?). These became taboo subjects because of this. Add to that the fact that when I did question things at home, my parents easily dismissed my questions without giving an answer. So to this day, I am still uncomfortable talking about it and asking questions about it. I have tried in the past to speak to my SO about it, but he is like my parents and dismissed anything I wanted to ask by joking around about it.
