Oh man, that sucks. I walked into the bathroom to get something one day, thinking just my mom was in there.

No. NO! Mom & dad were in the shower. Together. Shagging, I think.

Aaaaaauuuuuuuggggghhhhhh!

I was in my teens and it was horrible. Not that I didn’t want my parents having sex, but I sure as hell didn’t want to know about it!

OMG! That has got to be every child’s worst nightmare. Well, not mine, of course, because my parents never had sex. Ever. No, really, they never did! I mean it! La, la, la, I can’t hear you…

Heh, I did that once, and it was after knocking. That was the last time I ever assumed “What?” meant “Come in”.

The images will fade from your retinas eventually. Just don’t ask me how long eventually will be. Objectively, yes, I’m glad my parents do. Subjectively, don’t remind me that they do!

Once I walked in on my parents in MY BEDROOM. They said they weren’t having sex. Rather, my mother had a “vaginal zit” that my father was “inspecting.” You know…to make sure it wasn’t cancer.

Yes. In my room. And I’d just gotten out of the shower, so I was only wearing a towel when I walked in on them.

Worst moment ever.

Later, honey…MUCH later, I think you will find it comforting to know that your parents had a satisfying sex life.

Got to agree with Scotticher’s comments. You may well be in the same shoes someday and have a lot different perspective. I wish I knew that my parents had a loving marriage when I was growing up but it wasn’t, and I feel very sad for them.

That’s the funniest thing I’ve read today! Probably because I feel the same way. I had a girlfriend once who asked me if I thought my parents ever 69’d. Brrrrr.

No barfy smiley, Meatros, but you can temporarily call this the “Noooooo! My eyes!” smiley::smack:
