A five-panel SMBC comic. A bespectacled mother tells her young red-haired daughter, "Okay, sweetie, it's time we had the sex talk." Holding up a USB cable plugged into a laptop, she says, "Men and women are like... like this USB cable! The boys are like this part and the girls are like that part." The daughter, sitting on a couch, replies, "I think I get it." A banner reads "5 years later..." In the final panel, the now-teenage daughter is being intimate with a partner on a couch, a USB cable sitting on the table. She asks, "Uh... should I maybe slow down?" The partner says, "Nah. If you try three times, it'll go in" — the well-known frustration of plugging in a USB cable on the first try. Votey: a black-and-white panel of the woman lying down while her off-panel partner says, "Dammit. Try flipping over."
