If I felt sure they wouldn't be judgemental.

If I knew they'd respect my privacy.

If they seemed more comfortable with/about sexuality themselves.

If they made themselves more available to me.

If they told me I could ask them.

If they reacted better when I ask questions or voice concerns.

If they seemed better educated about sexuality.

If they wouldn't assume I was doing things I was asking about.

If we communicated more often or better about other big things.

ALL of these things.

The adults in my life already do a good job: I'm comfortable going to them.

Something else (tell us in the comments!)

It's not the adults that make me uncomfortable, it's myself. I am not comfortable talking about sex.
