OMG DD Skyped me naked to in-laws

I am dying. I'm not dying. I'm dying inside. My daughter was Skyping my inlaws on her iPad and for some unknown reason went walking round the house with the camera out not at her. I just got out of the shower with my other DD. We were in our bedroom. OH was drying DD's hair. I was butt naked (well I had knickers on) moisturising when DD comes in to show inlaws her sister and stands for seconds pointing cam at me in the nuddy. I didn't realise she was on Skype or I'd have ducked down or something. They saw my huge naked gut and droopy tits and every time I think of it I want to curl up and die. OMG. I have to face them at Christmas. Just. How. Even. Do. I... WWYD? How do I put this to the back of my mind and get over it?

Man bits far far worse. Take comfort in that. The horror will fade eventually.

Battleshiphips2 · 07/12/2015 10:15

We had stayed overnight in their caravan with them and he was in the shower. My mil for some unknown reason opening the door on the bathroom and poor fil was standing there stark naked with his penis waving hello. He managed to grab a flannel to cover it whilst saying "battles mil shut the door, shut the door, SHUT THE DOOR!". Mil dithered a bit about shutting the door! The incident has never been mentioned again between myself and Pil but very occasionally when DH and I are having dinner usually sausage I say "I can't believe I saw your dads willy".

Sallyingforth · 07/12/2015 10:17

I saw my fils penis once. I have never...

Yes I'm sure you were embarrassed. But stand back for a moment and apply some cold logic. Half the population of the world have a penis. You will have seen them in your family and perhaps on previous partners. Why should your fil's penis be any different?

Battleshiphips2 · 07/12/2015 10:18

beryl your poor dsis. Seeing your fils genitals is not really on the top 100 things to see before you die!

berylbainbridge · 07/12/2015 10:20

Sallying, can you really not understand the sheer awkward horror of seeing your FIL'S cock?!

DancingWithWillard · 07/12/2015 10:20

OP I'm sorry, I know it's excruciating for you but this is brilliant. I love your DH, "already had his christmas present"

TesticleOfObjectivity · 07/12/2015 10:20

Oh op! My dp once showed an old folder of photos on our laptop, featuring one of me naked, the main bits were covered but I was obviously naked. God I'm getting riled up just remembering it. I had a feeling something like that was in there so kept saying 'I think you should stop now' (without making a real thing of it as I didn't want to have to explain why). The knob (my anger is increasing) carried on oblivious and worst still, lingered over that picture (god I want to kill him now) talking away with his stupid face not noticing what he'd stopped on.

All I will say op is I feel your pain. Skype isnt always good quality and it probably wasn't as long as it felt, you could have been wearing skin coloured clothes - actually, I suggest you buy some clothss of a similar colour to your skin and wear them next time you see them. Maybe they'll think that's what you were wearing.

berylbainbridge · 07/12/2015 10:21

Battleships, sis and her dh are now divorced, I believe it was a factor in the breakdown of their marriage Wink

Preciousxbane · 07/12/2015 10:22

Battlehips a talking penis, I'm very impressed.

Your DH comment about Christmas presents for FIL is just the sort of thing my DH would say. Poor you op but thanks for the laugh.

MerryMarigold · 07/12/2015 10:25

Think of it as the same as going topless on a beach not something I have ever done but plenty do ...I would just try and be eternally grateful for the pants.

Sallyingforth · 07/12/2015 10:26

beryl Yes of course I can understand it. I said so.
But I wanted to point out how illogical it is that humans think that way.

patterkiller · 07/12/2015 10:27

I was once on skype to a fried and her DH was behind her leaning on the kitchen counter with his dressing gown on. Their DS ran from behind and pulled it wide open. Her DH was standing behind her full frontal at eye level to the camera. Oh Lordy that image is seated on my mind, however it has never ever been mentioned. We all know what happened that day but for the sake of sanity it is the unspoken elephant 🐘 in the room.

sympathies but sooo funny at same time. Its easy to do. Ds likes to play on my ipad and went through a phase when he was a toddler of taking 100 photos of himself, all the same. I think he liked pressing the camera button and hearing it click. Unfortunately one time was when he was naked the ipad must have been on his lap and even tho it was a squished up funny angle you could still make out a half a winky and his legs Which he then managed to send by fb messenger to 2 of my close friends along with a long nonsensical msg. thankfully they saw the funny side. Thank god hes grown out of that. And he didnt send my 'before' diet pics.

This thread has cheered me right up

StayWithMe · 07/12/2015 10:41

I have to look these people in the eye in a couple of weeks.

Could have been worse. If you'd been waxing, they might have looked you in the eye. Grin

P.s. I think I may just love your husband. Grin

TheWatchersCouncil · 07/12/2015 10:44

ha!!

Only one thing for it, I'm afraid. You have to divorce DH and get yourself a new set of inlaws. Or if you don't want to divorce DH, have drastic plastic surgery done, very quickly, so you clearly can't have been the naked woman they saw (although then DH has to explain who that person was, but that's his problem).

Not sure which is less faff, to be honest.

Sallyingforth · 07/12/2015 10:48

beryl I should add though that having grown up in a naturist family I've seen naked penises all my life and it's no different to seeing naked noses.

I haven't seen fil's penis though because they refuse to join us in the sun. :(

disappoint15 · 07/12/2015 10:54

Well, it's a little embarrassing but hardly a cause for distress. Everyone is naked when they take their clothes off, even your in-laws. Their son sees you naked all the time. They presumably see each other naked. I can't believe you would give it more than a passing thought.

tigermoll · 07/12/2015 10:56

OP, part of your mortification seems to come from worrying about what they would think of your body -- you mention your "gut" and "blubberyness"

I am guessing your are at least 25 years younger than your PILs -- remind yourself that you will have appeared as a young and sprightly goddess to their eyes :)

kaitlinktm · 07/12/2015 10:58

Gosh OP I am so mad at your DD on your behalf - and at other PP's DP and MiL for their thoughtlessness and general obliviousness.

I know when we had PiLs staying with us - ooh must have been 20+ years ago now - whilst their new house was being built, they slept in the next room and I still blush inwardly when I think of what they might have heard. Blush

The fact that I am now divorced somehow makes it worse though because I still see my mother-out-law. Just pointing this out because I know you were considering it. Divorce doesn't help, only time and Wine

MsMommy · 07/12/2015 11:01

Oh god really??! I'm replaying it over and over and over in my mind. Passing thought about a million times already today.
But this is really making me giggle and that feels better, so thanks all. :D

SoWhite · 07/12/2015 11:01

And try not to imagine that FiL is picturing the awful blubberyness of me. What a nightmare.

I wouldn't worry, you've got to be better than MIL!

MsMommy · 07/12/2015 11:04

Ha! I wasn't really considering the divorce. I might consider buying a really tight skin coloured dress to wear as someone above suggested. That could work.
The belly rolls and big droopy boobs doesn't help, but I think I would feel equally mortified if I was a size 10.
