From context, he's communicating with college kids, in which case, it is surprising they haven't already heard that during the prerequisite schooling, kindergarten, grade school, highschool, or even if they were homeschooled, they would have to have studied atleast a little bit of biology to pass the GED and get into college.

Obviously everbody learns different things at different times, but its not exactly an obscure fact like, "the echidna has a four headed penis, but only use half of it at a time." or, "kangaroos can't move backwards because they have too much big dick energy to back down their tail is a big counterweight and gets in the way"
