Sex was never taboo in my family. We've always discussed it openly and honestly. My mother was honestly surprised I waited as long as I did. I lost my virginity in my parents' home, in my own bed, because I knew they were comfortable with that. They always respected my privacy and space. Obviously, now that I actually have sex, the talk has gotten a bit racier. That's okay, though.
My SO and I have been together for almost three years now--my parents wouldn't dream of separating us when we visit, and his parents don't care. The only times we have slept in separate beds were a couple of family get-togethers that included my SO's conservative aunt and uncle and their "impressionable" daughter (who got knocked up a few months later) shortly after we had moved in together. But now they don't care either--or rather, they no longer have the room to talk.
