Oh, god no. I'm not open to my mom about my sex life at all. We just don't have that type of relationship and that's ok.

Well, I'm the adult child in the situation. I showed my mom this site, and I've even given/bought her toys to try that I think she'd like. She doesn't seem embarrassed by it. We have an open relationship. I like coming to her to ask about stuff like lingerie and condoms and lubes and such, and I'll tell her about things I want to buy or see on here.

If I had a kid, I don't think I'd mind. I'd want to have an open relationship where they feel comfortable talking to me about anything on their mind.

My mom isn't very open about her sex life, and I don't think she'd be comfortable talking about it.

I did just help my sister sign up here, and we spent a bit of time talking about things. I even coached her on things to include in a review so that she can get approved for the review program. My other sister gets grossed out if I mention toys, but has no problem talking about sex.

I don't ever intend on having children, but if I did, I'd probably start educating them about sex, birth control, toys, etc., at the onset of puberty. Kids are experimenting so young these days, and it's due to curiosity and a lack of any other education just as much as peer pressure. If I had a teen, I'd rather they masturbate or use protection, I won't pretend that telling them not to have sex is enough to stop them. Many members of my family were promiscuous at a young age, so we know better.

I don't think it's appropriate to talk to my parents about intimate sexual things. My mom gave me the whole "be safe, remember you can say no, and always respect it when someone says no" deal. That is an important thing for every child to know. But beyond that my mom never talked about much and neither did I. Much too personal imo.

As far as my parents know, my sex drive is near zero. I think it would embarrass everyone if I discussed my sex life (or lack thereof.. LOL) with them. Just to preserve the Status Quo, I'm actually trying to find a way to have the package delivered elsewhere and transport it back in my laptop bag...

No I wouldn't be embarrassed at all. I have always been upfront and honest with my daughters so I wouldn't think anything of it except...cool let me see!

I have one son, so I can't relate too well. But I'd be so embarrassed about that that my face would probably still be red from embarrassment when they burry me.

Why not talk to her about it?? Clearly if you know she has her own accoiunt on here then clearly she knows about sex...and this could be a nice chance to discuss things ...she felt comfortable with it

Yeah, I'm also not ready to talk about my toys with my parents yet. It's still a very private thing. But actually, it's great when you can be open with your family. So, maybe one day...

I honestly simply can't imagine how either me or my mother would ever even approach this subject. When I was younger and still living with them we did have that fun little awkward interaction where she knew that I found her vibrator and we discussed it in as few words as possible.

LoL...I'm a male. My daughter is 15 years old. I am a single father and I had that Birds and the Bees talk when she first her first period, it was a tough difficult thing to discuss with my daughter but I told her everything about sex, relationships and hopefully wise input. My son is 13 years old now, omg it was much easier with him. I even told him some secret sexual things to do. LOL. My point is, its tough conversation. I don't want my daughter telling me her sexual life but I'd be happy to give advice to my son.

Yes it would embarrass me, only because my mom and I don't typically talk about that stuff. If our relationship was closer, I don't think it would be embarrassing.

My parents Yes!! They were mentally stuck in the 1950s my parents would make Quakers say, "Lighten up" If I had kids, I would be 100 percent open with them!!

We help our kids with everything, so why not sex aid also. Everybody loves and has sex. Share our experience and knowledge.

IMO those conversations are usually only as embarrassing as you make it. I would feel a little awkward talking about it, especially at first; I've gotten toys for some friends before and it was definitely a bit weird to bring it up, but we've become more comfortable talking about preferences and so on since then.
I think I'd be happy to discuss it with my mother simply because I doubt that she has anyone else to introduce her to this world, and sex positivity is really important to me. I can't proclaim that sex is a good and positive thing if I still act ashamed of even mentioning it.
TL;DR: keep calm and carry on Treating those discussions like they're no big deal, even if you are embarrassed on the inside, is the best way to breeze through without any awkwardness.

Thanks to a lot of mutual misunderstanding, my relationship with my parents is strained. My parents are aware I have sex toys, but they don't know what I have or how many. I know my Mom has at least one vibrator because I heard it when she left it on by accident on a bedside table near her bedroom door the one time. Just told her there was an unusual buzzing noise coming from in there, and that was the end of it.

My dad had a masturbator at one time, which my Mom didn't even know about. He doesn't know that I know he had it, saw it in the trash as I was tying the bag shut; it had molded from a lack of proper cleaning.

Then there was the time he had a porn DVD stuck in and old laptop disc drive. Wanted me to get the drive open without seeing the disc, and I'd like to know what physics magic tricks he expected me to do to avoid seeing the disc label. Had to take the drive apart, so it was inevitable.

Not sure if I would be embarrassed to talk about it with my kids, if I'm ever fortunate enough to be a parent. But the strained relationship with my parents and the fact that they're unwilling to talk about it when it's part of an active problem means that conversation is never happening.
