hmm. i remember when i was around 3 or 4 there was a boy down the road and we used to look at each other. one day my brother walked in on us and i was majorly embarrassed (i guess i knew that we 'shouldn't' be doing that). he never told my mother though i don't think. i'm sure she would have given me a hard time if he had.

and i remember messing around a little with one of my cousins (female). kissing and hugging. imitating what we had seen on tv i guess. must have been a bit older... did that up to around 10 or 11 i think. and i did some of that when i stayed with one of my friends from school too. and some of the looking stuff with a couple of my friends brothers when i was around 7 or 8.

i guess i never really thought of any of that as sexual, though. it was kind of playing and i'm not sure that i had sexual feelings associated with all that if that makes any sense. just a kind of curiosity as to how boys bodies looked different from mine.

and i guess there was the boyfriend / girlfriend thing at school too... from about 10 on... and there would be a bit of kissing. but i think it was more about imitating the older kids than from any urges / desire... dunno...
