Have you told your parents?

[D's mariposa]

Nope, my parents dont know and will not know. One sister has some suspicions, but she's decided that she doesn't want to know. I expect some day she'll be into asking questions, bu then again, maybe not.

But I would wonder why my parents should know. There's really no reason to tell them.

 

[lilredwolph]

my father knows, but thats it he doesn't know details but he knows enough. he doesn't much care what i do, he'll ask sooner or later and i will answer honestly.

my tangled web gets thicker -

my father will never have a need to ask any questions seeing how my Daddy happens to be an acquaintance of his and knew about Daddy's "oddness" before i ever met Him. i know my father can add 2+2 so i am sure he knows more than he ever wanted to at this point


p.s. i basically met Daddy because of/through my father, hows that for some father/daughter bonding ?

 

[FungiUg]

My parents are dead, so no. My child is 3, and lives in another country, so no. One of my sisters (the only one who cares about these things -- the others know I have sex, and that'll do them) knows. Several of my friends know.

I don't tell everyone -- but if it comes up in a conversation, yeah, I don't hesitate to add it as a fun conversational piece.

(Copy and paste from a near identical thread in the cafe...)

 

[Howling_Ire]

well my dad is a conservative southern babtist... and my mother is an insane liberal hippie who thinks male empowerment in any form is disgusting and wrong (haha when i was younger she told me you should never give men blow jobs because they pee out of that).... i really don't know why they ever got married, or how exactly my little personality came into the mix... but needless to say my telling them about my sex life (they know i have one, i live with someone)...well to quote a friend of mine "that would go over about as well as serveing ham sandwiches at a bar mitzvah"

as for my siblings..well one is 19, i think she has a clue... but as far as i'm concerned she's a nun, and i really have no idea what she thinks about me, i'm blissfully ignorant

and the rest are all 7and under so i highly doubt they even know what sex is, which is as it should be.

 

[MasterNico]

My mom and dad both know. Dad is amazed that it goes on, and mom giggles and blushes. Once and a while she'll ask how plans are going for our "thingy" (the convention we do).

Bun's parents are a different matter. He's a Catholic Deacon, and while I'm fairly sure they have an idea, but they don't want to know.

 

[Etoile]

(haha when i was younger she told me you should never give men blow jobs because they pee out of that)

I like your mom!

 

[FungiUg]

I like your mom!

Oi! I guess that means no cunninlinguis for you, young lady!

 

[Howling_Ire]

*laughs* yes i believe P's responce when i told him that was "yeah well you bleed out of that!"

 

[His Precious]

If my parents knew half the stuff I am into they would disown me.
In this particular case, ignorace IS bliss for them

thinking faster than my fingers again.....

 

[LovingDaddy]

I'm a very private person when it comes to my life, even with my parents. No, neither of my parents know..my father is a preacher and I've ever felt the need to bring my lifestyle up to him or my mom

 

[sunfox]

My parents don't know, though they know I'm something of a wild child in many ways.

I'm a pastor's kid as well, but honestly, I think my dad would be fine with it.. he's pretty laid back. My mother, however, would have a coronary.

 

[sigsauerprinces]

my mom is actually pretty cool and openminded, but i havent told her. i think if i put it in real general terms, such as "i liked to get tied up, and spanked once in a while, and roleplay" she'd have no problem with it. however if she knew i liked to be hit and flogged til i had welts and bruises she would probably worry that something was wrong or i was being abused..so i probly wouldnt go into that much detail. i will probally tell her someday tho, just becuz it is a part of me i guess, its part of who i am. and it makes me happy. but i will spare her the scary details because i know she just wouldnt understand, and would worry.

My mom is exactly like that!
She has seen some toys I've forgotten to put them away when she has been giving the plants water, so she knows a bit. (she commented on it and asked what I did with it, so I told her)
She doesn't have any problems with the "light" BDSM part, but I don't feel like giving her too much details about what I accually have been doing. But if she would ask I wouldn't lie.

 

[shy slave]

My mother has an idea that I have different 'needs' to her, she found my collection of vibrators once, when helping me move house, l she was fascinated by them.

Earlier this year I was moaning about my husband who was leaving me and saying that he did not even enjoy blowjobs. My mother was stunned she confessed she has never done this to my father.

I laughed so much - my poor dad, he is 67yrs, it be hell of birthday present when he is 68

She asked if I used mouthwash afterwards!

Don't think she would be too shocked but it would cause her to think I am more unusual than she already thought.

My father does not know but he would not be surprised. Have spoken in general terms to both of them and they would both expect me to be the Dom - if only they knew

[Bandit58]

I'm bisexual and in a D/s relationship, my parents have no idea, neither do my kids (20 and 16) or my ex husband.

I've recently moved to Australia to be with Master, his friends know I am bi and they also know he is a Master so they must have an idea of what we do though it hasn't been mentioned out loud (apart from one guy who keeps asking if I've worn the school uniform yet - I'm tempted to wear it one night and watch his reaction ). I'm so enjoying the feeling of not having to hide anymore and Master and I do quite a bit of perving together (we have much the same taste in women ).

I did come out to three of my friends back in New Zealand, but living so close to family at the time I didn't want to open the closet door too far......but I have a giggle inside sometimes wondering what my ex's reaction would be if he knew.....

 

[skyan777]

to be honest i have no clue if my parents know or not, i don't tell them much but they seem to know everything... there frikkin psychic or however ish spelled

 

[MissTaken]

I haven't told them anything.

However, I think my father may have overheard some things one night when he and his wife slept here.

*shrugs*

I don't believe my mom knows, however, yesterday we were talking about the sort of jewelry scooter might purchase me and she said, "Well as long as it isn't one of those "slave" necklaces!" and giggled.


Hmmmmmmmm

 

[MastrJ]

My dad is far too willing to sieze on any reason to point out why I've fucked up my life or been a disappointment. Therefore, I'll never bother telling him. My mom isn't too much better, so I see no reason to tell her either. If something comes up with my little brother I'll probably tell him, but that's it. I try to keep most of my family out of my private life as much as possible, so telling them just strikes me as silly on my part.

 

[DarksunLord]

Nope....I have never talked with my parents about my sex live.
Why should I?...I don't want to know about theirs either.

Otherwise I don't really hide the fact that I'm a Sadist, but I do not advertise it either.
So, if somebody finds out, its no big deal to me,as I generally don't give a rats a** what other people think about me.

 

[Jessalynvix]

that would a definate no because i have yet to be brave enough to tell them that I am a lesbian either.

 

[mellian]

my parents doesn't know, and they won't know unless i have to tell them for some valid reason or/and because of circumstances.

probably tell my mother at some point, once i have been with my Domme for a period of time, as my mother will notice and wonder eventually.

i won't tell my father, especially when he is just sorta starting to accept the fact i am a transsexual... wouldn't help if he knew about my interest into bdsm and that i am a submissive

as for rest of the family... there is no reason for them to know.

-mellian

 

[SierraMoon]

i don't think i will ever tell my family... i think they have enough to handle, with having a son who is gay, a daughter who is a lesbian, and me that is bisexual.... all of that nearly killed them!!

 

[SubmissiveDove5]

I haven't exactly told my parents in detail. They seem to think that my sexual wants/needs are their business, but I never talk to them about sex at all if I can help it. It was really difficult when I was a teenager, lol. My mother did ask me about my current relationship (not that we've actually met in person yet). Instead of explaining the whole dom/sub thing, I just told her that it's a relationship where the goal is based on primal instinct. She seemed to except that answer.

I did tell my grandmother, which was a big mistake. Now she thinks I'm going to get beat up and abused for sure.

The only other person I told was my best friend. She doesn't understand it either. She doesn't like the idea of a man telling me what to do and when to do it. I told her that it was what I needed and wanted, but she didn't say anything.

So the only time I get to talk about it is online or with Chris.

 

[BlueSugar]

No.

I've teased the idea about being a lesbian into my mother's head though, its fun to watch her squirm... she says she'd accept me and love me, but I highly doubt that.
I don't have much of a relationship with my step father or any of my younger half siblings.
Birth father was murdered when I was two... I'm sure he wouldn't appreciate it anyway. (the bisexuality or the bdsm interest, and possibly the swinging...)

My older brother on the other hand, heh, I went to a local porno shop over last christmas and was poking around buying new toys and tapes/dvd's and such... his friend happened to be working that night (a friend I didn't know about). They check ID, friend noticed last name... he called my brother after I left the store and told him "She has great taste in porno, shes kinky too... shes legal right?" my brother hung up on him, and later told me "ok.. I know your safe and all... just try and go to that place when soandso isn't working so I don't have to hear about my baby sister and what shes into"

since then I haven't gone in when I knew that friend of his is working... heh.. small world hm?
