All right. Some recent events in my own life...well, more specifically the life of my boyfriend, have prompted me to start this thread. I won't bore you with details, or delve into the depths of a very stick situation, but basically, my boyfriend's uber-conservative parents have very recently discovered that their eldest son is sexually active. Basically, his mom found his "little black bag" that held Astroglide, a 36-pack of Trojans, and a pair of handcuffs....(let's just say we were playing cops and robbers
) This has completely changed the dynamic between parents and child, and he's decided it's time to move out. All this over a few jimmy hats...
So the question I pose to you...do your parents know you are sexually active? How old were you when they found out? How did they react?
My mama, in her wisdom, put me on birth control at age 18. Granted, I lost my virginity at 17, and I don't know if she knew that, but she did know that I would be sexually active in college. I thank GOD my mama's cool. She knows that my boyfriend and I have sex...we don't talk about it in great detail, but it's out there, it's not a secret. I don't know what Daddy knows, but he's a smart man. It's sort of a "don't ask, don't tell" kind of situation, which seems to work for all of us.
So anyway...let's hear what y'all have to say.
