(I am about four years old and sitting in the back seat of my mom’s car as we drive somewhere. All of a sudden, I ask this gem.)
Me: “Mommy, what does ‘sex’ mean?”
(There is a long pause as my mom tries to figure out how to explain this to a four-year-old. Finally, she comes up with a response.)
Mom: “Well, why do you ask?”
Me: “Because there’s a piece of paper on the seat and it says, ‘Sex: M or F.’”
(Cue a sigh of relief from my mom.)
