21 History Facts Too Spicy for School

In a truly literal sense, life isn’t PG-rated. The very act of creating life is regarded as something to shield the innocent from, kept behind the counter and under the cover of parental control settings. But as the song says, birds do it, bees do it, even Warren G.’s do it. (He wasn’t Harding for nothing.) As a result, there was pretty much no point in history during which nobody was fuckin’. Yes, even then. Yes, somehow even then.

But the school board gets weird when you teach middle schoolers about historical schlongs, so a lot of the slipperier parts get left out. Thank goodness for postsecondary study, though, because when user sonichedghog asked r/AskReddit, “Historians of Reddit, what are some R-rated facts that are often left out of history classes?” the more learned Redditors had some spicy meat-a-balls to drop.
