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

[Sportgh]

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?

If a man is standing there naked his knob is visible

Well technically if you wanted to look at it yes, but i have been in the room while my dad is naked and i have never seen his knob because i just don't look at it.

And my pig father used to walk around naked in front of me throughout my childhood and adolescence

That is horrible and abusive.

A friend told me how she visited her dil one day to find her chatting with her father (dil’s) stark naked. Friend felt this was very odd however dil is German and many German’s appear to have a different attitude to nudity than your average Brit. Depends on how you are brought up, I guess.

Not weird to me. My parents both chat to me in the bath and while I’m getting dressed if they are around at those times. I still see both of them naked from time to time as well.
As DS grows up I will respect any decisions he makes about his privacy but I will still be naked often in my own house.

I have never seen his knob because i just don't look at it.

Not as simple as that I am afraid. Depends on who it is and the context.

Am I in the minority thinking is isn't weird? Ds 1 and 2 pop in and out of my room when I have just come out of the shower and am getting dressed and vice versa. OK so the oldest is only 13 now but I don't think it will change...

Do the same posters have hang ups about breast feeding?

If a man is standing there naked his knob is visable. Therefore, she wouldn't need to be ogling it to see it.

She would need to look down. I usually talk to people's faces not their genitals

Do the same posters have hang ups about breast feeding?

Ah, you again.

In a word, no. Breast feeding is functional. Penis swinging is not.

and breasts are not inherently ugly

By the way I seriously doubt if some of the superior, too-cool-for-everything posters replying here would have a chat with their dad with their boobs and fanny out.

First of all, fathers tend not to be as extensively involved with their children's naked bodies as mothers. Childcare including nappy-changing, bathing and dressing is still predominantly carried out by mothers.

Secondly, society puts much more emphasis on women covering up than on men. I'm sure the societal effect is very strong but I'm not able to articulate in great detail the whole issue. But we all know that a woman can't bare her chest in public without bother while a man can.

Most importantly, the fact that I don't want my father to see me naked (or my mother particularly) doesn't mean that people who are more comfortable with naked bodies are wrong. It is a major issue in the world that people think their way is the only right way. Why can't you accept that other people do things differently, and that doesn't make them wrong?

Not as simple as that I am afraid. Depends on who it is and the context

Sorry - i don't understand what you mean? I just don't look down. I find that quite easy.

In my opinion, it’s a little weird but who cares.

I asked him if I did that in front of my dad what would he think and he said it would be weird.

Forgot to bold quote

A penis is only a very small part of the naked body.

Are you Sam Faires?

I'm not a new poster I've been on here for years but name changed for this

I knew a nanny who worked for a family who would wander around in the nude.

A penis is only a very small part of the naked body.

Thinking about it tho, i'd happily paint my Mum or Dad nude - so i would have to look then. I have done life drawing since i was 16 and if one of them wanted to pose i'd be fine with it - it'd save me paying someone £10 per hour! I'd happily life model too. I just can't get worked up about it.

I don't think it weird but at the age of 49 from when I've been aware, I've never seen my parents naked or since we were teenagers my sister naked.

I would stand naked infront of my mother (I wouldn’t deliberately undress infront of her but it has happened and it was fine).

With my father... no, I wouldn’t. It would feel a bit too weird. But I’m a woman and I do think that women are taught to see covering up as more important than men.

And it simply depends on the family/ culture. If I was in a place where bathing naked was expected... well, I would probably get over the awkwardness.

And I have been in a family changing room with my whole family (which included my father) on one occasion. Everyone was simply doing their own thing and that didn’t feel awkward to me.

But a sport bra and shorts used to be (actually kind of still are) my standard summer attire in and around the house and some people would probably see that as inappropriate as well.

Are they French?

I think it depends, some families are just really open about nudity. I know a 30 year old that walks around naked infront of his mum, it doesn’t bother her, she gave birth to him and raised him so has obviously seen it many times.

I don’t think I would happily stand naked infront of my parents, though my mum helped me in and out the shower after I had given birth.
