Having the ‘sex talk’ with your kids isn’t exactly the easiest conversation to have – well, that is, if you don’t take Jada Pinkett Smith‘s approach!

The 46-year-old mum-of-two has never shied away from talking about her sex life, and her latest comments directed at her daughter, Willow, 17, about self-exploration in her teenage years shines a new light on having this often-tricky talk with your kids.

“I think by your age, I gave myself multiples first,” she revealed on her Facebook Watch show Red Table Talk alongside her mum, Adrienne Banfield-Jones, and Willow.

“Multiple orgasms. I was really into it at one point. Just because I was in an exploration state and I was abstaining from men.”

Not only that, but during her sex-confessional with her mum and daughter, Jada went on to say that she may have taken her self-exploration a little too liberally.

“I actually think I went through kind of an addiction, too, with it. And then one day, I was like, ‘Enough. You’re having five orgasms a day’.”

And it seems that as Jada passes her orgasm tales on to her own daughter, the actress stated that it was her own grandmother that schooled her on what “self-pleasuring” is.

“My grandmother taught me about self-pleasuring because she wanted me to know that that pleasure was from me,” she continued.

“She didn’t want me to fall into the hands of a man, and if he gave me pleasure, to think that that was him. And she taught me at 9!”

What do you make of Jada opening up about her own as a means of educating others? And that she learnt about self-pleasuring at 9 years old? Tell us by commenting on our Facebook page.
