So true. My father once mentioned he was so proud that me and my brother knew the power of abstinence .... when i had been living with my bf for several months.

I'm from one of those families, too. I know my dad thinks I'll stay a virgin til I'm 30. My mom on the other hand... well, I'm sure she knows something, but probably assumes it's a lot worse than it is since I sleep at Mr. Bunny's nearly every night. We really do just go to bed most nights, and I like it that way.

I'm going to go on the assumption that they're clueless, though. That just makes me feel better. I don't want my parents knowing about my sex life. When I finally get pregnant I'm still going to want to deny it, because the topic of sex + my parents= really friggin awkward.

yep thats it. i always wonder how much my mom knows. people say parents know more than you give them credit for but do they really? i wonder if she knows i stay at my BFs house some nights...i mean its not like i leave to go see him or leave with him. lol. just kidding. i do. prolly too obvious.

My parents don't know a damn thing. Not that there's that much to know, but the little there is, is none of their business. I like to keep things undercover. Makes if easier to deny if the time ever comes. Not that I have to since I'm a well-behaved, upstanding young gentleman.

My mom thinks more has happened with me than it has in reality. I STILL get the occasional "Are you sure you haven't had sex??" Granted, I've come close a few times, I never went through with it.

I think it's kinda funny in retrospect because when I was in high school, I just wanted to get it over with, but it just never happened for one reason or another. As I got older in high school, I realized that I wanted to wait for the right person, but by no means was I going to wait for marriage. Well these past 2 yrs almost, I was convinced I had found the right person and was truely ready to give it to him when he came home (met him here but then he got deployed in the army..so it turned into a LDR), but then I found out he was cheating on me. So now.. knowing everything that he had said to me about being in love and wanting to get married in the future, I'm not sure I can trust another guy when he says all that stuff, so now I'm waiting until I'm actually engaged..or I might decide just to wait another year for the wedding night... I just don't want to be hurt that's all. I'm too emotional as it is, and I think that I'd go ballistic if the relationship I had with my first one ended badly (ie cheating).

Be glad about that! I gave my V-Card away the first opprotunity I got. I had my first kiss AND lost my V-Card all in one night. I so regret it now. Especially since he found "the One" right after breaking up with me and he is now engaged to her. There's not a day that goes by that I don't regret sleeping with him. He was a total hottie 6ft 4, with tons of muscles and a sexy tan, but I definitely wished I would have waited.

Yeah, I know a lot of guys can't handle having sex with held, but I *try* to make it interesting in other ways. I'm not a COMPLETE prude...

The way I look at it, the one man who *is* willing to wait until whenever for me, is the man who deserves it most.

I tell naaaaaaaaaaadaaaaaaaa....my parents know very little.

They know my boyfriends and friends well, but they'll never know the 'details'. For what? Do I want to hear their details? HELL NO. And i think that's only natural...you know those things you don't broadcast in the hallway at school or around the office? Yeah the same rules apply at home.

Mom was from the "I don't wanna know school". I got on the pill my freshman year and confessed to her when I came home for the summer. She took it so so:
"I don't like it, but I can't do sh*t about it. I'd rather have ya on the pill than preggo"

She still thinks my college sweetheart was my first.

Yes I am married but I do NOT talk to her about my sex life.

My sperm donor doesn't know much. He knows that I had a serious boyfriend in college. We haven't spoken in 3 years (and I plan on keeping it that way).

My mum knows. I don't care. She's pretty cool with it. Even my brother talks to her about sex.

My dad on the other hand, well he knows, bu just don't mention anything to him or around him. I think it freaks him out.

[DZDiva03]

My mom's pretty cool about stuff like that. When she gave me the "sex talk", she said- "Sex is wierd at first, but once you get the hang of it, its a lot of fun!" We don't ever get into details, but she knows what goes on.

My dad, on the other hand... I told him I was on birth control (I have a hard time hiding things from my parents), and he looked at me and said, "I'm going to go throw up now." hehe. Its just hard when daddy's think their little girls have sex.

I was dying when I read your post because I feel absolutely the same. I am sure my parents know, but why bother talking about it with them? I barely talk about it with even some of my close friends. I don't want to know what goes on with some of my friends in their bedroom so why would they want to know about me?

What are some of the funniest things all of your parents have said to you all in regards to sex/your body? The absolute worst was when I was 12 and blessed with my monthly friend my mom was so proud she announced to my dad "Your daughter became a woman today" at the freakin' dinner table!!!!!! I wanted to kill her. I think she got on the "phone chain" with her friends from church and work about it too. They went through the stage for awhile that I should be a wholesome Christian girl but that quickly changed when I started staying over at boyfriends houses. I also had a boyfriend in college for 4 1/2 years and we lived together. I think it is interesting because they were so strict with raising me, curfews, and all that stuff. My sister is 7 years younger and from like age 16 she was staying out to all hours and able to hang out with boys and stuff. My mom even took her to get her on the pill. I just told my mom last summer I was on the pill. When she started telling me how SHE was on the pill when she first got married to my dad, I ended the conversation right then and there EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!
