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.

    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

    An example of why the phrase “Don’t ask questions you don’t want the answer to” has wisdom.

    Some people eventually realize that their parents are also people, not gods.

    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).

    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.

    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.

    Thinking about it made you feel uncomfortable. Stop thinking about it. Get on with your life as if it didn’t happen.
