Remember how awkward sex ed was? While it's definitely an integral part of a school's curriculum, I remember everyone in middle school squirming around in discomfort as words such as "penis" and "vagina" were casually spoken by our gym teacher.

Times have changed. A viral tweet shows that children aren't afraid to ask the big questions about the gonads.

Twitter user @KimYooGyeom, who posted the tweet, explained that her friend is teaching elementary school children sex ed. The friend decided to type out all the questions she received, and the result was perfection.

While the kids aren't asking anything super NSFW, it's the pure innocence and awkward misspellings that make this pure gold. A couple of highlights include: "Wouldn't it be just as good if a boy had a baby for a change?" and "I know that intercoursing takes 24 hours. My questions is how do you stay awake?"

The post exploded on Twitter, full of praise for children and their perpetually awkward questions.

Some were also in on the joke too.

We're all still waiting on those answers, teach.
