Now, I had "health" classes in NYC in the 5th grade and we knew all the TECHNICAL stuff about reproduction - but EVERY kid in the class (from when we talked about it later) had the same question.. "What are the man and woman doing during all this?"

Now, about asking question, I have no argument with you there.. This is part of what I was asking about earlier for you to clarify your stand on 'parental rights'. There are those in the 'parental rights' group who don't want such subjects even *mentioned*.
"as a male.......": I only meant in the end, acting on any misinformation has a more palpable meaning to a female, ultimately.

"asking questions": I don't think the school should take on human sexuality in anything more than in a scientific application. I was referring to questions initiated by the student. The teacher will have to deal with that in a responsible and age appropriate way as I indicated in an above posting. This applies to your hypothetical 5th graders.
