Red and Rover by Brian Basset for December 19, 2012

Walked right into that one, dad…

Red, I think that end is called “let’s just go out and buy a new set of Christmas tree lights”!

I remember when my Dad referred to the male end of a pipe fitting, and I asked him why it’s called that. His explanation was rather more educational than Red’s Dad’s!

Socket.

It looks like the “sex talk” is coming and it won’t have birds and bees.

Please, my ears!

When you’re older, Red.

That’s the receptacle.

You see Red when a male loves a female…….

Perfect timing for “The Talk”

Time for the “talk”, dad.

The naughty end? The plug? The holes? The outlet? The girl end (and jokingly say “I don’t know why they forget to make it pink”)? :-s

Even if he doesn’t know about sexual intercourse, he ought to know about the most fundamental physical difference between male and female.

It’s called male and female because boys(males) have things that poke out, and girls stuff pokes in. You don’t need to have “the talk” it’s pretty much how I explained it to a 3-year-old.

Other terms are a “plug” and a “jack” Trouble is, Jack’s a girl!

You bet your sweet bippy!

I could say something about a two prong receptacle, but this is a family strip.

He’ll get the hole story later.
