Showing your body to your parents

[Eperty123]

One morning when I was at my girlfriend's place (I slept over). Her dad was at the other room (a room next to hers and just to point out we just woke up). She got up from bed without any shirt on but bare boobs and panties and went to her dad and talked to him like it was completely normal. I mean.. bare boobs? Is that normal? it would be different if it was her mom because they have the same genitals but her dad... :confused:

I remembering being surprised and thought that it wasn't right.

Would you guys just show your body parts to your parents and how close are you and your parents?

Thank you Elysium! :yeah:

[Iam-Marie]

Of course that's normal. are you so uptight? saw you your mother ever naked?

[pjones]

my mom sees me and my brother naked everyday. we don't wear clothes at home.

[Daniella98]

To me its also normal. I mean its just her dad.
But it totally depends on how youre raised. I think inappropriate is a pretty strong word here...

[Cangirl]

I agree its kinda how youre being raised about bodies and nudity and things. We have a pool so we see each other (mom dad 2 brothers and sister) in bikinis and bathing suits and sometimes tanning topless or skinny dipping but not that often with the 'rents around lol Other times we have to share a bathroom so things get seen in there or just in panties/bra tee/nightie or whatever. Its not that big a deal sometimes and if we do get uncomy or embarrassed then we can put something on right?

But I have friends whose moms don't even see them in panties or bras. There way more worried about being seen in undies or bikinis by their dads and thats ok to :)

I fixed the word.. sorry for that. I was a loss for the correct word when I was writing.
But thank you all for clarifying that it's normal. I guess it's just me because I'd never understood how close a relationship with your parents can be... And as you say, it depends on how you were raised. You see I wasn't raised by my parents but my grandmother. And my childhood was full of "Look away" or "go somehere else" when someone was naked so that might have influenced my way of thinking when someone in an opposite gender shows skin.

[Daniella98]

I thought so. Not about your parents, but the way you where raised. Dont you think you can adapt to their way of being open? They probably wont demand nudity of you.

I am open honestly. It just popped into my mind because I never imagined she'd go like that.

Funny but true:
Many times I thought the other way round :) when I read posts like this
Why the hell is it a drama to be seen naked by family?
What is wrong with it?
In our house we do not lock the bathroom door and we go to the sauna together. So there is nothing unknown.

So in my opinion your girlfriend is just fine with her family and absolutely nothing wrong with it.

I find it weird too but that's cuz of how I was raised. Different families, different customs I guess. Personally I stopped wanting to be seen naked since I grew old enough to take my own baths, but to each their own.

Yea I feel like that. Though I didn't want to be seen naked ever since I hit puberty.

What the deal is? It's like being kicked out of your sister's room when she needs to get dressed and doesn't want to be seen naked. But yea, it's a matter of how you percieve these things.

You've been raised in a way that being seen naked by your family is completely normal so that's obviously a no-problem to you whereas for people like me that was raised in a more no-skin-showing way. [emoji28]

nudity in my household (just my mom and I) is nothing, she see me naked all the time because im a home nudist, and I have seen her in various stages of undress as well -- but shes not nudist. Its all a matter of how you were raised and how you were taught to view your body. Some families are very open and secure about it and some families are very conservative and insecure about it.

Exactly Zack. Although being able to drop all the clothes must be a nice thing, isn't it? ;)

[Dyri_14]

For me its normal, because i walk alot in the house/pool/ beach naked.

[Desuetude]

In my family that's not normal at all. When I was about 8 my mum told me that I 'shouldn't show my body, even in just underwear, to any male members of my family/others (including my dad)' and now I don't think I've been naked or half naked infront of any of my family since I was about 10.

I don't know, like others have said it might seem normal if she was raised that way but I can't imagine doing that, my dad would have a fit and probably scream at me. But hey, each to their own and if people are comfortable with it and with their body, then go for it.

[SethfromMI]

well I mean it is normal enough in a lot of families. that being said, I do not walk around the house completely naked, I would at least have my underwear on. but they are your parents, they have seen you naked. now she is older and it is different, but it is not a big deal. I changed in front of my dad before and that is not a big deal. so like I said, I would at least wear my underwear, but it is not a big deal for her to do that

[Eperty123]

SethfromMI
I have actually seen her stepmother changing. It was like she didn't mind but yea as you say Seth, it's common in some households.

[maggs]

I don't make a big deal out of it. My dad, mom and sister have seen me already. I mean, I don't get naked on purpose so they can see me or something lol, it just happened a few times and I don't care about it, maybe because we're a really close family.

yep some people just don't care. it would be odd for a lot of people in your situation

[Eperty123]

It definitely is.

[Hudor]

Nudity's not normal in my family. Going bare-chested is okay but apart from that everyone prefers to keep clothes on. I don't think anyone at home has seen me naked since I was 9 or 10. That being said I have friends whose families don't make a big deal out of being naked.

I'm not the only one who finds it unnatural then. I actually didn't want to be seen naked around that age too.

[Zachary G]

Its a great feeling to be able to drop clothes and go.

[pjones]

i agree with you, nothing like it

[ejpete]

Um at her age. I don't think that's normal call me close minded but that's a little weird.

[Ratman1234]

There probably just close or something.

[bruzer]

She didn't mind it's normal for her but for me weird!

Well, I suppose if he's the kind of parent who doesn't mind hearing you have sex with his daughter the other side of the wall, he won't mind talking to her naked afterwards :confused: .

This just strikes me as so many different kinds of wrong, for oh so many reasons :what: . If my situation was different, I'd never do that. Not in a billion lifetimes. I like to keep my intimate private life special, and my breasts are very much part of that thank you very much!

When I was just starting puberty at 12-13 years of age I would have been perfectly o.k. talking to my Mom and Dad with no shirt on. Now that I am more developed I don't think I would go topless in front of my Dad, but my Mom I still have no issue with it. My Mom has come into the bathroom when I was shaving in the shower and I cut my ankle really bad. She saw me completely naked in the shower and I had no problem at all with it.

[mikielikesit]

I usually walk around in the mornings and at night in just boxer, buy not fully naked around family

[Hase]

I had seen my parents and my sister nude.
My parents and my sister has seen me nude.
I was also nude as I was born and my parents has seen it.

[lliam]

no big deal, even hanging around totally nude isn't that common in my family.

[playfull-qt]

I don't go flaunting myself infront of my family. My Mom and younger brother are the two people that I least mind seeing me though.

[jennyem]

I think that's slightly wierd. I wouldn't go bare boobs right in front of my dad...just a bit odd, but hey, everyones different!

[Jordan99]

That's totally normal. My dad use to bathe me and change my diapers and doesn't look at me sexually. Both my brothers and I skinny dip in our pool so our parents see us anyway so why would I cover up in front of my family in the house? It isn't like I intentionally try to be seen naked but I don't have a problem if family sees me either in the pool or if I'm getting out of the shower or getting dressed to go somewhere.

[Laura101]

I find it hard to believe her dad was ok with knowing you were having sex with his daughter in the next room and then being ok with her walking around topless in front of you in his house but, if that's your story, ok. As far as her being topless in front of her dad, that could be totally normal because he's her father.

[Hannah98]

I don't go out of my way to go bare boobies in front of my family but I also don't go out of my way or get all self-conscious if they see me. In the mornings while we're all getting ready for school and work my mom and I are often running around the house "bare boobies" while we iron a top or get clothes out of the dryer. No big deal.

[BlackParadePixie]

I try to cover up around my dad, but sometimes he walks in when me and my mom are talking, or I'll walking into a room he is in when I didn't know he was home...stuff like that, but I don't ever feel embarrassed. Its just like, oops, sorry! And we go about our business.

[jhardy]

It's not a big deal in my family. We don't go out of our way to show off, but we don't bother covering up either if we're changing, etc.

[thegreatgatz]

Sounds like a progressive family who are comfortable seeing each other naked and comfortable with their children having premarital sex. It's all good, you should expect that sort of thing when they allow a male-female teenaged 'sleepover'

[LilEmma]

sounds very normal.

[Andre 99]

One of my friends has walked round my house in just her bra and panties, in front of my, 2 friends and my dad.
I guess if she is comfortable showing off her body, then yay :)

[akselj]

I guess it depends on the culture. I live in Denmark and nudity is no big deal here. I see my family naked in the sauna all the time.

[Unlucky]

For my family that's not normal, but based on other people's answers, I suppose my family is part of the minority.
It depends on how and where you were raised.
I did run around my home ( and occasionally the halls of my apartment building, sorry neighbors :P ) naked as a kid, but I wouldn't do that now.

Though I have known people who were comfortable like that, for example I had a friend who would take showers with her mom and walk around her house in her underwear.
But I guess that's normal for many people.

[AutumnWinds]

i would never ever do that with either of my parents. it seems a little weird to me.

that being said, i think if she's cool with it, and her folks are cool with it, that's all that really matters. we've all got different lifestyles, and i certainly have some stuff about me that would be considered weird.

does that make you uncomfortable? i just ask because if one of my friends did that around my dad it would make me really really uncomfortable.

[Andre 99]

Why would it make you uncomfortable?
I thought it was slightly odd, but, if she was comfortable to do it, then who am I to stop her or ask/tell her to get dressed.
Her boyfriend (my friend) was there as well, we were all getting ready at my house to go off somewhere for my friend's birthday.

[AutumnWinds]

my dad's a straight guy and i have hot friends. i don't think he would ever do anything, but it would be weird knowing he was checking my friends out or knowing they were sort of encouraging it.

[Andre 99]

AutumnWinds, I guess everyone is different.
Although I have not seen her naked, I have seen her topless.

[Laibachd]

I don´t have any problem doing that with my family ^^

[sonnenstrahl]

I don´t have any problem doing that with my family ^^

Me too, it is the most normal thing in the world.

[Zerg]

Nudity doesn't always have to be sexual. Some people are raised differently too

[Dyri_14]

It´s normal for me.. not a big deal..

[eric2001]

Sometimes my Dad or bro use the bathroom when I'm showering if they're in a hurry (LOL) and my moms in the other one. I really don't care.

[clairey]

It's not exactly inappropriate but it would not be acceptable in my family and I would never do it. Everyone's different though I guess.

[CuteGuy889]

Its not a biggie...My mom anyway takes my pants off if I sleep with them on..(she used to do this even outside home whn I was a kid).....she's a doctor and she says its important for my testes to be cool and the best to sleep will be my briefs...And if they are dirty she changes me to a fresh pair...I dont mind as they are done with good intent.

[Perfectly Flawed]

It's not a big deal to most people I wouldn't think, but it's very culture based. For example the US is very uptight about nudity, while Europe is much more open minded in that aspect.

I personally don't go around naked in front of my family, but I wouldn't mind if they saw.

[caseyislame]

It's normal. Nudity is common in our house. We've all seen each other's parts. It sort of desensitizes you to it, meaning you don't think about wanting to see it all the time anymore.

[Katie96xox]

I am comfortable being naked around my mum and sisters but not my dad. I am fine wearing just a bra and panties in front of him but not fully naked. But that's just me, I don't think this is weird at all and I wish I wasn't so self conscious or modest or whatever about being naked in front of my dad.

[kayla...]

I'm used in my family we skinny dip at home n beach etc
It's not sexual for a parent to see their child, they made them

[Jamesk0050]

I think it is normal and no big deal. Mom has seen me naked and so has my sister and a few cousins as well as dad and freinds.

[Ashelyisamazing878]

My dad and mom see me and my sister naked all the time. It's no big deal, he's my parent after all, and him being the other gender doesn't really change anything in my mind. It's comforting to know that you can be open with your parents.

[TheLivingLie]

My mum hasn't seen me naked for like 8 years or more? And my dad hasn't seen me naked for 3-4 years, but everyone is different and have been brought up differently, so for me it's weird being naked around parents but for others it completely normal

[Zachary G]

I dont thin its such a big deal, it just shows how comfortable they are with each other and their bodies. Its the same way in my house, nudity is no big deal, it just is what it is.

[PinkFloyd]

To me, that is really weird. I'm not one to pass judgement on anyone, but personally, I think it's weird. I don't think that it should be weird, but that's how I view it.

[INACTIVEchaosphere]

It depends on your relationship with your parents. I honestly would like to have a dynamic like the one your girlfriend has. I can't because my parents are more conservative regarding nudity than I am and tbh, I would prefer being seen naked by a stranger who didn't care than my parents. It can be healthy, if the nudity involved is platonic and simply open.
