I’m a little stirred up and I don’t know why. It’s natural to watch that kind of stuff. But it somehow feels awkward now, being his child. I don’t know. Anybody got any, like, advice? On how to get over it? Dads? Children of dads?
Hey, at least it was labelled MILF and not young teenage girl.
Another good lesson to learn, don't ask questions you don't want answers to. You may be curious about the things you find in your parents spaces, but the reasons behind the item may give you psychic damage.
What is there to get over? I'm fifty. I have sex with my wife - I'm talking dirty, messy fucking sex, not thirty seconds of missionary. I masturbate. In lots of ways, I'm a fifteen year old with 35 years of experience. I think that's most people. That's just... life. Welcome to not being sheltered from it?
Come to peace with the fact that your dad is an adult separate from his role as your dad. He might even drink or partake of the devils lettuce. He has dreams and aspirations separate from his responsibility to your family.
I'm in my 30s now, so perhaps I am out of touch with my younger self, but I don't remember being bothered by the idea of my parents sexuality.
Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's abnormal to be bothered by it. I've heard plenty of people joke about how gross it is that their parents had sex or whatever. I don't really understand it exactly. I guess maybe it's just an embarrassing subject!
Also, not to pile on, but don't look at your poor old dad's web history! What a nightmare! Lol
Just rearrange your life so you never have a quiet moment of reflection ever again.
Get a shitty old car with no muffler. Break the windows and replace them with plastic. Turn on NPR at max volume and then never touch the dial again. Buy a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. Light one of the cigarettes and suck the smoke into your lungs. Repeat this until the cigarette’s burned away, the repeat that 20 times, then repeat that every day. Get in a feud with your neighbor and make sure it devolves into night time disco ball laser pointer milkdrop light show visualization battles one one another’s ceilings. If you don’t already live in an apartment with shitty blinds incapable of blocking line of sight to the outside, move to one immediately. Take your feuding neighbor with you.
I don't have any good advice, but I can relate. As a kid you only get one (very limited) view of your parents. Over time these awkward but eye-opening moments happen where you have to realize they are normal people, too.
If you really want some fun, hang out with your parents' old friends and ask them for stories. You might learn more about your folks than you expect (or want).
Heh. Used my brothers browser. Started typing in the search bar. Got a list of urls I'd rather not mention. Just went downstairs and asked him to clear his history and switch off recommendations before powering down.
I was going through router logs (was not looking for anything, just exploring all the things in the router’s web interface) and I found all of my son’s porn search queries from his 3ds.
Whenever you’re out and about with your dad, and you see attractive women, point them out and make “innocent” comments about how attractive she is, and ask your dad’s opinion on them. Maybe drop a “MILF” (without saying “MILF”) in the conversation once in a while.
[you noticing a mom with her kid(s)]
You: Hey dad, she’s pretty hot, no?
Dad: [grumbles] yeah sure. I guess.
You: Not hard to believe she’s a mom.
[blank stare him for a few seconds before quickly changing the subject]
You could also sneeze once in a while, asking him if he has any tissues you could use. If he says no, you could respond, “surely you have tissues somewhere, no?” Blank stare him for a few seconds before changing the subject. Same thing with asking for any hand moisturizer.
But don’t come right out and say anything to him about it. You want him to sit uncomfortably with this nagging doubt that maybe you know, but maybe you don’t.
Edit: damn. Y’all ain’t got no sense of humor over here @lemm.ee. I’m a dad, and if my kid did this to me, I’d find it hilarious. Lighten up a little. Life is too short, and there are very few things to laugh about. This should not be one of them.
If I'm the dad, I'll figure where it is going and retort with reeeaalll detailed details of his sex life with, and prior to your mom. That'll teach ya real quick.
