The Curious

Here's an anecdote shared by a PNU professor.

Five-year old Maria rushed to the comfort room to pee. Because she was in a hurry, she forgot to close the door and just turned on the hose. 

Her classmate Mario witnessed the whole process. Shocked, he ran to their adviser and exclaimed, "Teacher, teacher, I saw Maria pee and she has no penis."

The conservative teacher wanted to point her finger to Mario but she controlled her temper, extended her patience and answered him promptly. "Mario, Maria is a girl and you are a boy. Girls have a vagina and boys have a penis."

Mario got curious and innocently asked her another question, "Teacher, teacher, what's a vagina?"

The conservative teacher wanted to fly off the handle but she controlled her temper, extended her patience and answered him promptly. "It's the sex organ girls use to pee."

Mario got curiouser and innocently asked her another question, "Teacher, teacher, do you also have a vagina?"

The conservative teacher felt the student was starting to become a pain in her neck but she controlled her temper, extended her patience and answered him promptly. "Like your mother, like your sister, I also have a vagina."

Mario got curiouser and curiouser and innocently asked her another question, "Teacher, teacher, can I see your vagina?"

The conservative teacher felt insulted that Mario has gone below the belt but she controlled her temper, extended her patience and answered him promptly. "Mario, the vagina or penis isn't something you can just show off to other people."

Mario, who ran out of seemingly silly questions, joined his classmates. The teacher released a great sigh and said, "Sex education!"
