This short directed by Michael Davies says so much about how we don't know how to answer simple sex questions.  Brilliant:

Sex, Politics & More Sex

It's not brilliant at all and it's not even humorous. She's ignorant and stupid. But you can't win them all Carlin. "Making Love" and "Mummy's thing" is just painful.

l thought it was funny, and cute. Not everything has to be perfect, accurate, or educational. l enjoyed it as the fluff it was intended to be.

Non-verbal

Non-verbal communication has more value and impact than the verbal communication.
 
What in this fim is conveyed by the more knowledgeable mother to the little person, by means of her facial expression, body language and her (agressive, why is that?) ways of handling cutlery, is that sex organs, sex and sexuality are shameful and too shameful to talk about. The non-verbal is detrimental here.
Also, this kind of film education plays down the mental intelligence of little human beings (not "children"). In this respect, the overall position of the camera says it all.
Speaking from experience, this kind of non-verbal communication kept me from knowing the meaning or investigating the word Virgin till I was 21. How disgusted was I (programmed by) then to find out that you have to face The Man on top of everything else in the sex act.
