Just walked in on my husband standing stark naked in front of his mother

Just walked in on my 34 year old husband brushing his hair having come out of the shower and his mother was standing there talking to him. He was STARK NAKED. That's so weird isn't it? I told him it was weird and said I wouldn't stand naked in front of my dad and he kind of conceded. I'm freaked out. AIBU?

This happened in his bedroom not in the bathroom.

YABU. And weird.

Sorry but ewww

DailyMailReadersAreThick · 24/12/2017 13:20

I'm sorry, but picturing that scene is making me laugh. Grin

It's a bit odd but meh. Some families do nudity as the norm.

You really need to ask? Xmas Hmm

sirfredfredgeorge · 24/12/2017 13:21

unless he was adopted in his teens, I expect his mum has seen him naked before... YABU.

ButchyRestingFace · 24/12/2017 13:21

It wouldn’t be my cup of tea but presumably they’re a nudey family?

Is he generally quite uninhibited about nudity?

ijustwannadance · 24/12/2017 13:21

Fucking weird that a mother would want to see her adult son's knob

Topseyt · 24/12/2017 13:22

I'd find it weird too. Why was his mother just standing there in the bedroom talking to her stark naked adult son anyway? That is just as weird.

Mumof56 · 24/12/2017 13:22

Some people don't have hangups about nudity

dontbesillyhenry · 24/12/2017 13:22

Ermm okay

Pannalash · 24/12/2017 13:23

Because a naked human body is outrageous isn't it op? Xmas Grin

PaintingByNumbers · 24/12/2017 13:23

Why weird?

ButchyRestingFace · 24/12/2017 13:24

Fucking weird that a mother would want to see her adult son's knob

Who says she wanted to see it? Maybe he just stripped off.

And my pig father used to walk around naked in front of me throughout my childhood and adolescence. Rest assured I didn’t want to see it and averted my eyes as much as poss.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 24/12/2017 13:24

I agree, nudity is normal for some families. I would find it weird though.

At least he brushed his hair. How embarrassing for his mother to see him with messy hair.

PollyShelbyLifeCoachServices · 24/12/2017 13:24

It's good to be comfortable with nudity but my son is 22 and neither of us would be comfortable with that......

ButchyRestingFace · 24/12/2017 13:25

Because a naked human body is outrageous isn't it op? fgrin

No, but by God, penises are grim. I think men often don’t realise this.

HiggeldyPigsinblankets · 24/12/2017 13:25

a bit strange but some families are very comfortable with nudity

Branleuse · 24/12/2017 13:26

it sounds like a completely non sexual situation. Not like they were ogling each other. I think culturally unusual in the UK, but that doesnt make it "weird"

Ontopofthesunset · 24/12/2017 13:27

People in this country are weird about nudity - an odd mix of coyness and prurience. OK, you might not do it, but there are loads of cultures where people, whole families included, go to saunas and hot springs and are naked in front of each other. It's not all about sex, you know. It's possible to talk to another naked human being and not think exclusively about their genitals.

ClaryFray · 24/12/2017 13:28

Yanbu on one hand. I wouldn't like my dad to see me naked.

However my mum still does, she was with me when my son was born. So saw a lot lol

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 24/12/2017 13:29

Did you notice what they were talking about OP? Or were you distracted by the elephant in the room, so to speak. Grin

Anymajordude · 24/12/2017 13:30

Weird. It isn't difficult to just put some pants on. Even if you don't mind your mum seeing you naked out the shower it doesn't mean you remain naked for any length of time.

Gaaaaahhhhh nooooooooo.
