My Dad wants to give me "The Talk" tomorrow but I already know a lot about sexual stuff and etc. I pretty much learned by myself.
I just feel embarrassed that he's going to talk about this stuff when I pretty much already know.
What should I do!

I went thru the same thing several years ago...it was a little awkward especially since I did know most of the stuff already and hearing my parents talk about sex and stuff was just uncomfortable. But it means that they care about you and are concerned that you get the correct info. Thats how I looked at it. More parents should take the initative and talk to their kids about sex.
My advice is sit there and listen politely...im sure it feels awkward for them as well. You might even learn something you didnt know.

Well, I wasn't given the talk yet, so I don't know what you could say but I will be in the same position as you, you could try to say you already know a lot about that stuff, but then your dad might ask you what you know, so then you would be saying stuff, but yeah, I don't know what else you could say, don't try to avoid it though, get it over with, good luck though.

My dad already gave me the talk right after my 14th birthday. But it was more like a lecture.
Basically he asked me if I could make a baby. When I said yes, he talked about birth control, abstinence, and teen girls getting in trouble. I got the feeling he didn't want my penis anywhere near a girl's vagina until I was 18.
What was so funny is that he had absolutely nothing to worry about. :)

Chances are that he knows you know most of what he's going to tell you. He also knows that it's going to be embarrassing as hell for you, but it's going to be just as bad if not worse for him. I'd recommend just sitting down, listening and getting it done as quickly as possible. Don't waste the opportunity though, parents are invaluable sources of information - if you have a question then just ask him.

It's probably best if you just listen, it won't last that long. It's probably worse for him than you. Just get it over with.
I never got the talk from my parents. They just told me anything I needed to know in bits and pieces over the years, instead of all at once.

The best thing that has been said is just sit and listen....if you have some questions, ask that will make your dad know that you are mature enough to handle what he is telling you and that if you have any questions later that you will come to talk to him. My brother and I had the talk at the same time, so I think dad felt he was killing 2 birds with one stone I guess (we are only about 14 months apart) ...it went find, but I also had support with my brother there I guess...honestly and we told dad AFTER he didn't tell us anything that we hadn't already heard about but he also told us some stuff that we got dis-information about from our friends

Thanks guys for all the advice. He didn't have "The Talk" with me today as I thought he was going to. So you guys can just give me advice whenever.

you could always start asking him questions about what he did when he was your age.

I doubt he's going to give you techniques he will probably more or less just tell you the risks of it and how to be sure safe if/when you do have sex, it seems odd your dad scheduled an appointment with you for it I know my dad just came in my room 1 night and brought it up out of nowhere, you may want to tell your dad what you already know or think you know he might be able help you better understand what you already "know"

You already know!
Tell him that!
I don't need a talk, I'm pretty sure i know more than my own parents, they were born in Africa, I don't even know if they know what masturbation is..

I never had "the talk" because i learned about that in school and from just learning by my self, but i think you should just tell him that you know it and you dont have to tell me , OR you can just go with it and just listen to him.
