'My aunt is apoplectic. "Why did he even read the question 'What is wanking?'" 

'A teacher at my cousin's primary school has had the genius idea of a No Question Is A Stupid Question class for sex ed, which involves all the 10 and 11-year-olds in the year 5 class writing a question on a little bit of paper and slipping it in a shoebox covered in cellophane. It transpires that my cousin didn't know about masturbation until this class. Even if he did secretly know and was pretending he didn't, he knows how to push buttons, so now his 6-year-old sister knows too, though I don't think she really understands the motivation or process or really cares what masturbation is.' (Publication abstract)
