Literal Eli5: "it's a slang term that some people use, but it isn't something you should worry about right now. It's meant for adults"

Since I'm becoming a father soon, I started learning responses like this

This is how you end up with a generation of kids who grow up using "rawdog" to mean something other than "unprotected sex". Just talk to your kids about sex.

Well Billy, it's when a penis penetrates persons vagina or anus without using a condom.

Have fun now explaining condoms or why they would put a penis inside someone, to a person who is still learning how to wipe their own ass properly.

Part of the reason why parents dodge these questions is because they know that more questions will follow, and while kids absolutely should be learning about sex (as in, having healthy sexual relationships) from their parents, that's a conversation that's better started a little closer to puberty.

Not at 5 years old! Absolutely not.

What, you mean kids won't learn dirty words properly if they don't hear them from their parents? That's one theory of development.

Omg the downvotes, people are not ready to have open educational conversations with their kids or am I missing something?
