It depends on the age of the person you are explaining it to.

For a small child, you could be as simple as "mommy and daddy love each other and decided to have you".

For an older child, say beyond the age of 7 or 10, it is time to be accurate. Use the correct terminology, such as penis, vagina, testicles, uterus, ovaries, etc. Explain how sperm fertilizes egg and grows into a baby. Don't forget to include all of the ramifications, such as love, commitment, disease, even death, not to mention criminal record in some cases. Talk about menstruation; you don't want your young girl to think there is something wrong when her periods start.

Actually, sex education starts in the very beginning, with how the mother and father interact with each other and with the child. It is an ongoing process, requiring honesty and trust. You don't explain everything in one sitting; that will just confuse the child but, if you start early, and start simple, it will evolve into a full understanding.

Don't give the impression that sex is dirty, because it is not. Do explain that sex is very special and should be reserved for special times. Do not be embarrassed, because the child will sense that very easily. If you do not understand all of the aspects of sex, get a book, talk to a doctor, talk to a teacher, do something, because sex education is very important to the child's development, self esteem, and later life.

There are really 3 types of sex: 1) vaginal sex, which is where a man inserts his penis in a woman's vagina. 2) oral sex, which is where you use your mouth to arouse someone. 3) anal sex which is where the penis is inserted inside the anus. Sex is an activity that should be treated with care. You don't want to rush into aomehong like

Well, there are two meanings.

1: The gender of a human (boy, girl)

2: The most common one, where a man puts his penis into a woman's vagina, causing a great deal of pleasure. Gay men and lesbian woman can also have sex as well.

What is the difference between gender and sex?

Sex is the actual genitalia you are born with, and that classifies you as male or female. Gender may be more your internal identity and the role you play in life. Many use the terms interchangeably. Some may use the term gender to avoid the confusion that occurs between using the word sex to mean body parts and using it to mean sexual intercourse. Persons with transsexualism use the word sex to refer to the body, and gender to refer to who they are. The term gender as they use it can further be split into gender identity and gender role (or gender expression). Gender identity would be what you feel like inside, who you are, and what natural interests you would have. Gender role is all the little rules and culture related to gender which comes from society. This distinction helps to settle a seeming contradiction between feminists and persons with transsexualism. Feminists say gender (role) is not destiny, while persons with transsexualism say that gender (identity) is destiny. So the feeling of who you are might be inborn, but how you live in society in regards to your gender is certainly not inborn.
