Mine never did...I wish they had. It was just implied in a round about way that "girls don't do that".

My parents were always fine with answering any questions I had, but they never initiated any such conversation. I learned about sex from a Dr. Ruth book, which actually worked better for me than a talk would have. And while the book DID talk about masturbation, I largely forgot about it until I discovered it on my own... by accident.

My parents never even had the sex talk with me. I think it would have been extremely awkward if they had, so I'm glad they didn't.

A few months ago, my dad caught me with one of my toys. He saw me throw it under the bed and wouldn't stop inquiring about it (he probably thought it was drugs, lol). So I told him what it was, and he got really uncomfortable and walked out. A little while later, after he left the house, he called me and told me not to be embarrassed because it's "perfectly natural" and I shouldn't be ashamed. I felt like I was talking to Jim's dad in American Pie. xD But that was the closest we ever got to having a sex/masturbation talk.

My parents never uttered one word about masturbation.

We have talked to our son about it. He knows masturbation is perfectly normal and he knows we would NEVER barge into his room if his door is closed without knocking and getting permission to enter first.

These closest I ever got was when my mom saw me browsing Eden on a break from college. She asked what I was looking at, since it didn't look like videogames, then called sex toys 'girly things' and looked shocked when I rolled my eyes and told her that I might just be thinking of making a 'girly purchase'. Then she forgot all about it. I'm 20 and still uncomfortable talking about sex with my mom, so I'm kinda glad she let it go.

No! I'm glad they didn't. It was not necessary and I'm especially glad that my dad didnt! I wouldn't think that was an acceptable thing to talk about between me (a little girl) and my father. Maybe with a mom, sure. We talked about sex plenty and we weren't ever weird about it or periods. My dad didn't ever ask about my sex life actually neither of them do, but I'd flip if they ever did. I don't think a dad should want to be involved with knowing his little girl's sex. I don't think it's bad to talk about sex and stuff though. We did and he always made sure I knew how to take care of myself and not be hurt or pressured even though I was more than pressured at 15, but I' glad masturbation was not talked about! I mean what would you say "Hay mom show me how to play with my cooter?"

I wish my parents had. I started doing it very early and had one of the homes where those types of things were wrong.

Ours sure never did, but WE did with our daughter (now 21) when she was growing up. Things became FAR more "open" between parents and kids in the 80's and 90's then they were in the 60's!!!

Wow...your MOM got it for you? That IS pretty amazing, but didn't it make YOU feel "uncomfortable", or was it "cool"???? If my mom had done that, I think I would have fainted.

My parents never did. I ended up finding out about sexuality through the tv or talking with friends while growing up. I come from a very "conservative" Christian family and topics such as masturbation were just never discussed and considered taboo.

No, but I want mine to never have to feel shameful about it. Maybe if so many weren't inclined to see it as a shameful/wrong or unspeakable thing to do, but a smart/healthy thing to do, we wouldn't have idolized going out & having actual sex at too young of an age.

My parents never talked to me about anything. The only thing my mom ever said to me about masterbation was about a week before I was to be married she told me its wrong to masterbate even when you're married cuz its like cheating on your husband. Thats the only thing she ever said, and it was really awkward and random and I just kinda looked at her and said ok. lol

My family never spoke about it, sex, or anything like that. I was told how bad boys were and how fruitless relationships were and that I was basically better off waiting until hitting 30 to end think about finding someone.

My dad's gf, though, got me my first toy at 21. She was so shocked I never masturbated nor even had an orgasm, ever. Her and I talk about things sometimes when i have questions, too.

No, now my parents really didn't. But it doesn't bother me. I'm actually glad they didn't. There really wasn't anything to discuss. I knew what it was and wouldn't have been interested in talking about it. I don't think it affected me badly, but we were always very open and comfortable talking about sex. I guess different people have different needs. Some children feel it's necessary to discuss it with parents, but some don't. I am glad that we were able to talk about sex.
