In the 1950s one was supposed to have no access to birth control until marriage, and then suddenly all the rules changed and it was okay. One was supposed to go from absolute celibacy, some necking and some carrying on, but not actual intercourse, to suddenly a full-blown wonderful, blossoming sexuality with one's husband. This was supposed to have taken place overnight, magically. And we did talk about that. It was like how are you supposed to accomplish that, and you go from knowing nothing, and not even exploring as much as one would have liked, to suddenly being expected to be the radiant bride who's wonderful in bed. Now to be fair, the same things were expected of men except that there was experimentation allowed for them. So it was not bad for them to have had some experience.
