Taylor Momsen 'taught sex was wrong'

Taylor Momsen has admitted that she was taught that sex was wrong during her time at a Catholic school.

The 17-year-old explained that she now thinks intercourse is "natural" and should be discussed more.

She told Grazia: "I went to a super-repressed Catholic school. That was something I had to overcome actually - they really f**king make you feel like sex is wrong, but I think it's natural.

"My best friend's my vibrator. I don't date anyone, so why not? Guys can masturbate - why can't girls? I don't understand why it makes people uncomfortable. Sex is a part of life - it shouldn't be so scandalous."

The singer and actress, who is known for her provocative image, insisted that her parents are accepting of her attitude and dress sense.

She added: "My style's not for everyone - I'm an extremist. But my mum loves fashion, so she gets it.

"My dad is the one who introduced me to rock 'n' roll, playing me The Beatles and The Who. They know that sex and rock 'n' roll go together - you can't have one without the other."
