AIBU to think this is weird

Hello, long time lurker but first time poster here.
I have just met up with a friend of mine who said something that I perceive to be a really weird and want to know what others think.

My friend has recently moved back in with her parents so we were talking about how it was going. She said that so far it was going well the only thing she was worried about was her dad seeing her naked. I laughed and said I suppose that could be embarrassing but I wouldn't worry about it.
She then said it wasn't the embarrassment that would bother her but she was worried that if he saw her naked he would find her sexually attractive and that would change their relationship.
I said I thought this was a strange thing to think and that I very much doubt that this would happen but she then got upset saying it was a genuine concern as she knows she has a good body (which she really does).
I really didn't know what to say, is it just me or is this a really really bizarre thing to think never mind be worked up about? She is 30 years old if it makes any difference.

Er, is this for real? If so, she's seriously fucked up Confused

I'd back away slowly if I were you.

Is he her stepfather?

Why on earth would her dad see her naked in the first place? Confused

CookieLady · 23/02/2017 16:19

Erm, very odd.

LittleMum91 · 23/02/2017 16:20

That is grim Confused It is a very weird thing to say.

Fucking weird 😳 I'd be mortified, but I wouldn't be worried about my dad finding me sexually attractive, wouldn't even enter my head. And then getting upset that you said it was strange? She's so full of herself that she takes offence to her own dad maybe being anything other than sexually attracted to her? Wow.

Yucky

Honeybee79 · 23/02/2017 16:20

Everything about this is weird. Seriously?!

wishparry · 23/02/2017 16:22

So strange.

PurpleDaisies · 23/02/2017 16:22

Very odd.

RebelRogue · 23/02/2017 16:24

Fucked up

Mulberry72 · 23/02/2017 16:25

It's beyond weird that it would even cross her mind that her Dad might find her sexually attractive.

Her poor Dad would be mortified (I imagine) to know she's even had that thought!

liz70 · 23/02/2017 16:25

"Er, is this for real?"

I doubt it.

Creatureofthenight · 23/02/2017 16:25

Beyond weird. It's quite easy to avoid people seeing you naked, I manage it every time I stay at someone's house.

witchofzog · 23/02/2017 16:26

It is very odd. Good body or not most father's would not think about their daughter in a sexual way. She wasn't abused as a child was she? It's a weird thing to even cross her mind and if she was genuinely upset by it, it could be a remote possibility that she was trying to open up in a ham fisted way

School2 · 23/02/2017 16:26

Can't understand why or how her dad would see her naked. Very odd

Magicpaintbrush · 23/02/2017 16:27

Why in the name of all that is holy is her dad ever going to be in a position of seeing her naked in the first place?? Does their house not have lockable doors??? Wft??

KarmaKit · 23/02/2017 16:29

Christ. She's bloody full of herself if she thinks her body is so amazing that her own father will be sexually attracted to her! Bizarre.

TheWinterOfOurDiscountTents · 23/02/2017 16:30

If this is real then OP's friend likely has a history that makes this pertinent for her, and slagging or ridiculing her is abhorrent.

Somehowsomewhere · 23/02/2017 16:31

WTAF?!

  1. I can't imagine ever being in the position where my dad would see me naked if I was living with him. His house has doors.

  2. I imagine the poor guy would be gutted to think his daughter is worried he's going to be sexually attracted to her.
NeedMoreSleepOrSugar · 23/02/2017 16:32

I would be worried for her as that kind of comment would suggest to me she may have been abused in the past (not necessarily by her dad). Outside of that explanation I don't understand why it would even cross her mind!

Could this have happened in her past and she's just trying to tell you without telling you? Iyswim.

If not then it's really weird.
