Sex is the very definition of life.

Without it, the universe would be an extremely lonely place. Sex is the most natural, self-fulfilling thing that an organism can do, and almost all organisms do it (maybe not starfish, trees, nuns, etc.).

However, sex has become as taboo a subject as anything. Maybe it’s because naked bodies appear more vulnerable and personal, which is totally against our well-known rules of being as arrogant and fake as possible. Maybe it’s because we would rather let young people remain clueless and “figure it out for themselves” once they start to get their first funny feelings.

Either way, the stigma needs to be desensitized. Maybe a list of people who have had sex will show people that, y’know, it’s not so bad after all…

1. George Washington

He was the first President of the United States, but more importantly, he had sex with his wife, Martha Washington. So if you have sex, don't worry! Your next step is likely founding a nation.

2. William Shakespeare

This guy had sex with Anne Hathaway!

3. Oprah Winfrey

If she was asked, Oprah would most likely recommend sex with an enthusiastic thumbs-up! Then she would ask you to please leave her show.

4. Albert Einstein

Yup, somebody had sex with him.

5. Mona Lisa

Little known fact: Mona Lisa only got this gig by having sex with Leonardo Da Vinci. This is the kind of stuff that could be prevented if there was more sex education.

6. Pornstar Mia Khalifa

We actually have video evidence that Mia Khalifa has had sex, but we can't display it because most folks would like to deny the validity of the largest entertainment industry in the world. Those same folks, of course, will hastily find the evidence we speak of once their children have gone to bed.

7. Steve from Blue's Clues

This really shouldn't "ruin your childhood," because, looking back, it's easy to see that Steve from Blue's Clues had sex fairly often. It was an inevitable realization.

8. Blue from Blue's Clues

There's less stigma around sex outside of the human species, so as long as Blue wasn't spayed by the show's producers, Blue most likely had some doggystyle sex during her lifetime.

9. Your parents

They're probably doing it right now.

10. Your first-grade teacher

Though you were much too young to realize back then, you can now look back at your elementary school teachers and come to the conclusion that they were having sex at least twice a day.

11. Your doctor

Next time this guy gives you a physical, just picture him doing the same thing to his wife.

12. Your first-grade teacher and your doctor

Okay, this one is probably unlikely, but just picture it! Wow!

13. Mickey and Minnie Mouse

Mice have sex very often. Probably. They also don't live very long, so your favorite cartoon characters most likely had a lot of sex, had babies, then died quickly.

14. That little old woman next door

This spunky old lady might have had a lot of sex with a lot of people in her prime, but that's okay!

15. Your youngest son

You may not have a son yet, and if you do, he might not be old enough to have sex yet, but someday he will! Also note that I used a cartoon picture, because people have done really screwed up things with sex by not having the education they need.

16. The guy who does your taxes

You know how the first thing he did was wash his hands? Now you know why.

17. Some of The Beatles

Yeah, I know, Ringo has three kids. Still, I'm just going to play it safe and say at least some of The Beatles had sex.

18. Ellen Degeneres

Yes, lesbian sex is still sex. And it does happen. If you want to have sex with someone who is the same gender as you are, go ahead! You'll probably get a talk show.

19. One Direction

It is well known that the members of One Direction have an orgy before and after every show. As you probably know, Zayn does not have sex with the other members of One Direction anymore. That is okay. If you have sex with somebody, you are not entitled to stay with them forever.

20. You

You are a living organism. Be careful, be safe. Now go out there and have some good sex!
