Are your parents ok with you watching porn?

[Pultost]

Got a bit inspired by the Is porn illegal (http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=2051194) thread, and as we know, parents are different. Some are privacy Nazis, others don't give a shit, and we have those who are in between. Mine are pretty laid back, but there are limits.

As I wrote in my latest reply in the said thread, my parents are ok with me watching some porn now and again, as long as it's nothing weird (like diapers or the like), and of course as long as it's not all I ever do all day long.

So, my question is, where do your parents stand when it comes to this?

[Shiny Moon]

Yeah they're ok with it. I mean I'm 18 now but they were ok too when I was younger. My mom did suggest me to stay away from the weird shit like you said.

[Pultost]

Yeah you can watch pretty much anything you want now. :yes: Glad to hear they were cool about it before that though. ^^ And yes, I wouldn't watch the weird stuff even if I was allowed to.

[Ashley2004]

My parents are not ok with me watching porn. My mom doesn't even like me watching rated R movies like horror movies. But they don't micromanage my internet usage that I know of.

[RocketSkier]

I never asked them, but since they never told me they had something against it, I conclude that they are ok with it...

[ashleigh7]

I’m never have asked her if she would be ok with it or not. My mom is very tolerant and excepting of things...but I’m sure she wouldn’t super supportive of me just watching porn. But I don’t know..really. I mean she thought it was funny like in a good way...when I read 50 shades of gray. And saw the movies:) I think she would take it like junk food. Don’t have it a lot and if you do..only have a small piece. :) ha! Now I want some junk food!lol!

[Natacha]

They are very okay with it. We don't speak so much about it and they are not sure about my preferences, which is why they don't do so much sorting in possible freakishness.

[Pultost]

Yeah there are some things that would be awkward to discuss with parents, such as porn preferences. xD

[Natacha]

I think they have an idea of it, but they don't seem so worried or intrusive on the matter.

[Lionsden04]

Don’t know if they are ok with it not been caught watching it and it’s never really come up in conversation

[Pultost]

I think they have an idea of it, but they don't seem so worried or intrusive on the matter.

That's good, glad it's not an issue. :)

[stoneflowe96]

My parents were not fond of the idea that I would watch porn. I did it anyhow, but very seldomly. Especialy with my mother there was always the older feminist attitude of "porn no". I think she wouldn't belive that there is such as feminist porn and that girls can like porn too.

[ska8er]

IDK but I wouldn't ask them. Some things
are best not to bring up.

[Jessica.lang19]

The subject has never come up with me. My parents did have a discussion with my brother (he's 13) and he's starting to masturbate so they did have a talk about what is "appropriate" to watch and what isn't. Generally I think they are ok with it I guess since they know we have both watched it.

Yeah I think it's safe to say that they're cool with it if they haven't said anything, and they know you watch it. :)

[Falcons_11]

To put it succinctly...No.

[Kagami]

My parents are not ok with me watching porn. My mom doesn't even like me watching rated R movies like horror movies. But they don't micromanage my internet usage that I know of.
Pretty much this.

[Caycedilla]

Probably not, but is that really going to stop anyone? With so many people having computers and cellphones...it’s kind of right there.

[Pultost]

True, it didn't stop minors before Internet came around, so it definitely won't stop us now. :P

[HeyCameron]

I don't watch porn. I know my brother does, but my parents have never mentioned it. They just don't know that he does. I think it's better that way.

[Pultost]

I don't watch porn. I know my brother does, but my parents have never mentioned it. They just don't know that he does. I think it's better that way.

Yeah. "don't ask don't tell" is a nice rule. ;)

[Zika]

Yeah. "don't ask don't tell" is a nice rule. ;)

for porn, yes. Not for the original use of the term.

[Jermy]

No my mom does want me looking at it. I got caught and got in big trouble for looking at some earlier this year.

[HFrint]

I’m
Sure they’re aware that I see it... I know that they’re aware of my activities.

[Tylerttt]

No they would not like it and i would be in trouble but i dont look at it anyway.

[Alex_Swim]

My dad does not care if I watch porn.

[Jake445]

It's never come up but yes I think my parents are perfectly fine with me watching porn.

[Steepo_]

I've never been caught (but had a few close calls) so they dont really know, but im sure they are aware of what I do and their fine with it. After all, all teens watch it at some point in their life.

[thatboi]

I have never talked with them about watching porn and I will never intentionally bring this topic. I think they may be aware I watch it, but we don't talk about it.

[arnorway]

i have not been caught directly, but dad had a talk about me clearing the browser history on the computer i share with my brothers. he didn't say anything about the history itself, so i guess he was okay with it

[Pultost]

i have not been caught directly, but dad had a talk about me clearing the browser history on the computer i share with my brothers. he didn't say anything about the history itself, so i guess he was okay with it

That's a pretty nice and subtle way of giving you the go-ahead. :yes:

[Natacha]

i have not been caught directly, but dad had a talk about me clearing the browser history on the computer i share with my brothers. he didn't say anything about the history itself, so i guess he was okay with it

Great way to deal with it. Your dad's cool

[Mswimmer]

I don' really understand why or how should our parents know if we watch porn or not. I have no idea if they know or not but we are all ok the way it is.

[Katie2003]

My parents would prefer that I don't, but they know most teens do. I admit that I have.

Mom told me that basically if it was done respectfully and not degrading to anyone involved, that sort was not harmful to look at once in a while but you shouldn't be doing it all the time.

[Pultost]

I don' really understand why or how should our parents know if we watch porn or not. I have no idea if they know or not but we are all ok the way it is.

Oh it's not like I told them out of the blue, and they never asked, but they found out one day and had a talk with me about it. That's when they told me it's okay as long as I stick to the "vanilla" stuff.

[gurquenjen]

I mean, it's not something I do intentionally in front of them because...well, there are some things I don't want to share with them, including my erotic viewing habits...
However my mother and I turn out to have a similar taste in things we like. That conversation started a little awkwardly (I walked in on her watching Beautiful Agony on the family desktop, and hilarity ensued), but eventually we had a disturbingly adult and funny talk.

[Vic_Fire]

they haven't caught me

[BlackParadePixie]

Uhhh it's not really something I've ever really discussed with my parents. I don't have any restrictions or anything when it comes to the internet...so I assume that they both assume I have watched it at some point.

[Jericho14]

Absolutely not and I make sure they'll never find out as long as i'm not yet adult

[Zachary G]

when it comes to porn, though my mom doesnt like me watching it, she knows that I do and there is no way to get away from it when im online - she just didnt want me to overdue it and if I had any questions to talk to her about it. My dad, on the other hand was a complete hard ass when it comes to porn.

[Karalectric]

I dunno. I could ask but sounds like an awkward conversation, so i will pass. :lol:

[ThereseFrei]

My mom is ok with it. Just told me I shouldn't watch it all day all night.

My parents are cool for some stuff, but they are not open at all about sexuality. Porn and jacking are forbidden, much less having sex

[Pultost]

Wait. Jacking too? Porn I can understand, but forbidding masturbation is harsh.

[Oscar-V3.0]

Wait. Jacking too? Porn I can understand, but forbidding masturbation is harsh.

We are catholics and religion is against it and they say its immoral

I for me think that its not a sin coz I dont harm anyone

[Pultost]

We are catholics and religion is against it and they say its immoral

I for me think that its not a sin coz I dont harm anyone

I see. Yeah I don't think it's a sin either, like you said it harms no one. Just be careful not getting caught, but I'm sure you already are.

[Knightley]

I went and asked my sister if it's ok if I watch porn hahaha and she said quote "yes you tit go watch what you want your 17 stop asking me weird questions"

[HardCandyGirl]

We haven't talked about it, but they don't like the idea of me or my siblings watching porn, they're very conservative. I mean, they said that porn is bad, but maybe they watch it too, the say that like saying "Don't watch porn, it's bad for you", maybe they think we're "too young".

[RCT109]

I went and asked my sister if it's ok if I watch porn hahaha and she said quote "yes you tit go watch what you want your 17 stop asking me weird questions"


hahah is ur sister older than you? and never heard anyone be called a tit is that something in the uk

[MasonBA]

it is most definitely not allowed in my home

[scott2002]

My mom sometimes brings her boyfriend home and I gotta listen to the sounds of then f**king while I'm trying to get to sleep. That's the porn I'm subjected to. It's disgusting. So what I do on my computer is my business. I don't know if she knows or not, nor do I care.

OMG, I am so sorry you are subjected to that. I once walked in on my parents and I still haven't gotten over it

[Jameson9]

I don’t think they would approve of me watching porn

[Knightley]

hahah is ur sister older than you? and never heard anyone be called a tit is that something in the uk

Yea my sister is 25 she's been taking care of me since I was 13, yea calling someone a tit is like calling them an idiot

[Adamant]

hahah is ur sister older than you? and never heard anyone be called a tit is that something in the uk

Yes!
Not sure how my parents would react if they knew i watched porn...don't often anyway.
When I first moved in with them they went through all sorts of keeping safe guidelines and keeping away from porn one of them with definite consequences if they caught me.
That was a few years ago now. I guess if i get caught there would still be a consequence but won't be bad and they won't be shocked..

[flogrown2001]

My mom caught me once and she wasn't happy, my dad wasn't too mad because he understood that everyone goes through a stage of their life where they are curious and have a strong desire to just explore everything that's out there. That being said, they still told me that I shouldn't be watching porn because it's not good for my young developing mind. I heeded that advice for about a year, then caved again just simply out of curiosity and exploration.

[Ryguy123]

I don't watch porn. I know my brother does, but my parents have never mentioned it. They just don't know that he does. I think it's better that way.

do u know what he does

[sofie04]

They are more like dont ask dont tell Lol but mom always jokes about clearing my browser history so she doesn't know what I am into :D

[Pultost]

They are more like dont ask dont tell Lol but mom always jokes about clearing my browser history so she doesn't know what I am into :D

I assume she's got a pretty good idea why you keep clearing your history. :P

[AshleighB]

I don’t watch it that much, so don’t really know if they would be ok with it, never been caught

[NotSky]

They don't know that I do🤫

[rokyrok1]

Yeah they are ok with it. I mean I'm 18 now but they were ok too when I was younger.

[SkyN]

My parents never found out about it... but I think they have figured it out, they haven't said anything about it so I think they're okay with it..

[Diable rouge]

They don't know that I do, and that's better.

[ShineintheDark]

Must vaguely be aware but never discussed it

[Ricky.h]

Most definitely. Dad actually encouraged it. I've been seen watching or heard watching

[Thedukeoftrumpet]

If they knew they would not be happy lol

[Shooting-star]

Never really talked about that before but I'm sure they know I do

[Tsall]

They don’t like that I do it, but know that I’m a teenager and they can’t stop me from it. They’ve caught me before, and have talked to me about it, but they didn’t stop me.

[nicktheman2003]

I have been caught by my Dad. H espoke to me about it and he never told my Mom.
I still look at it carefully.

[Dezzy1]

They know I do, I've left stuff open before :O Never a thing said tho

[Bluegrass]

I say nothing about it and act like I'm not watching any.I'm embarrass to let them know even if its okay with them.

[Don Giovanni]

Well im almost 20, i didn't tell them that im watching porn, but they probably know that and i think they'r ok with that.

[Will..]

Probably not.

[xSashax]

My dad knows I watch porn and is fine with it. Never had a problem. Funny thing is that my big brother said when he started watching porn, dad had the “talk” about not getting addicted to it etc blah blah.....but he never had a problem with me and my sister watching it.

[Shaythen]

Never asked...gee, maybe I should, lol

[Petyr]

Uhh... i just dont tell them, i do it in private lol

[ClaireHofmann]

I guess so. My mom caught me masturbating to porn once. She didn't say anything, just apologized later for entering my bedroom without knocking. I'm pretty sure that she told dad about it. It's been almost 2 years now, we never talked about it.

[cubebuilder]

They aren't but they don't know so it's not an issue

[Catt]

Never really came up
I think if you can’t hide it from your parents you aren’t mature enough to watch it

[RCT109]

Never really came up
I think if you can’t hide it from your parents you aren’t mature enough to watch it

cant agree more

[ZoeH]

Not something weve discussed but I dont think they would be ok with it

[AmberTra]

Never discussed it with my parents but I am sure they know I watch it.

[jasondrums]

So, my question is, where do your parents stand when it comes to this?

I do not know and I do not want to find out.

[Pultost]

I do not know and I do not want to find out.

Yeah some times "what you don't know won't hurt you" is right on. xD

[DaisyDo]

Never watched it don’t think they would like me watching it though

[Allover Kelly]

My parents think we can't stop you from seeing it. They know we will look. New Mom and I have talked about what I have watched.

[ImJulia]

don't think anyone in my house knows I watch it but they probably realize I masturbate.

[thematt002]

I wouldn't tell my parents I watch it but I'm sure they have figured it out.

[Adamant]

My friend got caught recently....and yes i do mean friend and not me.
He had to hand over his phone and laptop until he had had a "discussion" with his dad. He could choose how quickly that was he waited about a day.
Got told how disappointed his parents were and it was degrading for him to watch and for the people doing it. If they find it again he will lose privileges etc and that was it. Not made to promise not to watch it again or anything. He was expecting worse as his parents are very religious.
Tbh i reckon my parents would probably give me the same message but dont think they would punish me now i am almost 16.

[Robert100]

They aren’t okay with it in the slightest bit but what they don’t know can’t hurt them

[datsme2012]

Haven't got an approval. it is more like a silent acknowledgement

[Jedidom99]

I don’t say a word

[Diable rouge]

They would not be OK but they are not stupid, they must know I watch it but do not talk about it.

[Lukie]

In my parents eyes I'm their innocent lil boy lol
I know they know I watch porn, they know I know I watch porn!
Porn is so good lol
To answer your question they know but don't say anything which I prefer it's not like I want them to ask me over dinner questions about my porn viewing....

[JayJay07]

I don’t watch it but I don’t think they would be happy about it if I did, I would lose internet privileges more than likely

[Damon06]

They don’t know but I don’t watch it much. They probably wouldn’t be ok with it.

[minda015]

Most of the parents are not okay with that...my parents are not an exception

[lexiep]

well i would never ever want my parents to know anything about my sexual adventures and what i'm into so hopefully i will never know if they are ok with it lmao

[Ralph.S.G.R]

I don't think they are aware that i do. And if they are aware, they haven't voiced any concerns or displeasure.

[Kraken]

My mom have seen me watch porn while jerking off and knows about it. Her attitude is very chill. She said she knows I’m curious about sex and she can’t stop me from watching porn. She just told me to be discreet and said everything is exaggerated in porn.

[Allover Kelly]

My New Mom gave me a site to use. She also told me never click on anything that pops up.
I told her I have been watching it from like 11 and really like Girl-Girl

[SenorAnon]

They know and don't particularly care or disapprove.

[ESM331]

My dad doesn't know i watch porn but probably assumes i do. he's never said anything so im not worried.

[ObidomKenobi]

They have no clue !

[Dynamite_Pickle]

Never been caught watching it but I don't think they'd care either way only cuz like what are you gonna do? take away the phone and laptop?

[BrianSullivan]

My mom have seen me watch porn while jerking off and knows about it. Her attitude is very chill. She said she knows I’m curious about sex and she can’t stop me from watching porn. She just told me to be discreet and said everything is exaggerated in porn.

She sees you while you watch porn and jacking off? Wow, aren't you embarrassed?

[Zxywvuts]

I've never been caught, but not saying they couldn't connect the dots either. I'm fine not discussing TBH...

[SouthernDude]

They found out I had watched it, weren't happy at all.

[Ragle]

They suspect but don't address it.

[TSRY]

I don’t watch it, and they wouldn’t be ok with it if I got caught I would probably be grounded for a long time

[Jordan05]

My parents know my sister and I watch porn and they are ok with it. My parents bought my sister and myself sex toys too.

[look]

Were you in your room when this happened?

I would guess so.
I find it difficult to believe any parents would let their kids masturbate in an
"open" room, like a living room. Then again, I am a bit surprised at how many
people here are allowed to be nude anywhere around the house, when others
are home. Not the way for me (although it would be nice if it were; sigh).

So, how much freedom do others here have at home, not just in watching porn,
but in nudity and masturbation outside of one's private room?

(I do not mean to cross any lines here, but I am actually wondering how
much this really happens. Perhaps this shoud be its own topic.)

[Tayler]

Oh I've heard this one before......

Lmao right?

[Bostonian]

Well, I don't, but that's a personal choice. I don't think my parents would care though.

[Zika]

Troll, troll, troll your boat....

There are a few posts on this page alone to which that might apply :rolleyes:.

[Barbara.]

I generally never watch porn although I have seen it before and never felt that I should tell her,she probably already knows I have seen it.

[Bluebyrd]
