I could just say something like "so, I don't care about people in the other

Let me revise what I said to be limited to those in the US. I'd wager that
even those in the US going to religious or private schools (I didn't learn

know about this.
I didn't learn that I needed to have safe sex from a teacher - I learned it
from my dad.
