That's a bit awkward!
The other night I sat up with my parents to watch the premiere of Channel 10's new series 'Trippin Over.' At the end of the episode, there was quite a raunchy sex scene which would make anyone blush - especially when your parents were sitting right next to you.
I know we're all adults here but watching sex scenes with your parents is probably one of the most awkward situations you will ever experience. For me, I feel like I am doing something really wrong and dirty, feeling that my parents think less of me for watching such filth! But hey, I bet they saw worse in their day!
Another occasion I was watching Sex and the City - the episode where the girls go to a day spa and everyone is walking around naked. My Dad so happened to walk through the lounge room when I was watching it and I have never seen someone's eyes pop out of their head as his did. He questioned what I was watching and then sat down and continued to watch the naked girls walking around. He had such a smile on his face, I felt repulsed. As if I wanted to see my Dad get his rocks off watching my favorite show.
I don't know whether there should be a ban on watching shows of a sexual nature with your parents - yes, a stupid idea but how do you recover from such an embarrassing situation?
Have you ever had to sit through a raunchy show or move with your folks? If so, how did you deal with the awkwardness?
