Because I can think of no other earthly reason why DSs (all 16+) would need to spend upwards of 20 minutes under the shower. They are definitely not depilating as they'd all give Mr Tumnus a run for his money.

LIGHTHEARTED

So I truly can't have a proper answer? I'm bored and waiting haha

SaucyJack · 16/08/2017 12:56

"Giving Mr Tumnus a run for his money" would make a great euphemism for self-pleasure.

SaucyNoBrainer · 16/08/2017 12:56

I honestly to god think your embarrassed now but like I would think, who cares I'm behind a screen.

Anyway back to work

Dragonflycushion · 16/08/2017 12:57

To be fair Gin, if he's pulling his weight with regards to the bills, fair go.

Because we all know girls wouldn't do anything like that.

Unless you have a power shower Wink

SaucyNoBrainer · 16/08/2017 12:57

OMG another saucy

vasseve1 · 16/08/2017 12:59

I think if you stay out of your son's business your son will be happier too.

Dragonflycushion · 16/08/2017 13:00

Oh yes, the power shower. I wondered why the builders asked me about it incessantly after they'd installed it. At the time, I thought they were just proud of their work Grin

Ah power shower. We didn't get one of those.

Dragonflycushion · 16/08/2017 13:04

Seriously - it was only weeks later that the penny dropped. And they'd been standing there every morning going "How'd you like your new power shower?" or words to that effect and grinning away.
Cheeky fuckers.

Or they just like a long shower? Twenty minutes isn't inordinately long in our household for male and female children or adults.

stevie69 · 16/08/2017 13:06

I actually can't believe your posting about your own sons possibly masturbating in the shower. Ffs it might be your house but have they no right to a private life without you speculating on the Internet?

FFS. I give up. The joy of humour is slowly and surely being sucked out of life Sad

Apparently ejaculating roughly 21 times a month helps protect against prostate cancer. Maybe theyre just health conscious :p

SaucyNoBrainer · 16/08/2017 13:09

Haha, joy in wanking sons.

vasseve1 · 16/08/2017 13:11

Why do't you go one further and put a spy cam in the shower...just to make sure. Then present him with a bill for all the loo paper you say he is using. Humiliation complete.

Cailleach666 · 16/08/2017 13:12

FFS what a stupid thread.

Leave the poor guys alone.

I can't believe that you want to discuss the masturbatory practices on a web site.

Even with the "LIGHTHEARTED" so called proviso.

Dragonflycushion · 16/08/2017 13:13

I'm in and out in 3 minutes flat Zee. 5 max if I'm washing my hair. I attribute it to my sealskin smoothness and ability to repel water. All the males, however, have full body pelts. DH says it's the rinsing of the pelt that takes the time. Me ➡️ Hmm

Niki love that film. So relatable Grin

Stressalot42 · 16/08/2017 13:16

Goodness me the amount of pearls that are being clutched on here is amazing!!!

OP, remember those signs at the swimming pools? No bombing, no diving, no heavy petting.... get one of those and adapt it Grin

I do love the high drama!!!

I feel sick thinking about you thinking about your son wanking! Stop thinking about OP then!

Keep out of your sons business. I'm sure OP is not interfering in their actually wanking habits.

Some very strange pearl clutches ....OP is being light hearted!!

Dragonflycushion · 16/08/2017 13:17

Almost so maybe a rota would be counterproductive, health wise. Hmmm. Maybe a tickchart on the bathroom door. Like an equivalent of the kitchen 5 a Day?

Ah fond memories of those signs Stress. It was fun to see how many we could get away with before the lifeguard kicked us out. I never managed the smoking one.

This has made me chuckle, including the pearl necklace clutching! I didn't know what that meant until I was 25. Even now I smirk at the title of the book / film Girl with a pearl earring as in my mind I've subsituted necklace!

I slept under DS ( 13) in the bottom bunk, he was on top one night on holiday. My ears have been well and truly opened. Ear bleach was needed. Yes to 20 minute showers for him here too.
