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?

Uncooked chickens are grim, cooked ones are delicious!

Hope that helps.

I'm so British id be looking curiously at the genitals

I couldn't go to a naked sauna thing, I would be unable to stop noticing genitals

It's literally just interest/appreciation- naked bodies are interesting

Spottylegs · 24/12/2017 15:27

I find It a bit odd too but maybe thats not odd to him or his Mother maybe have a chat with both off them

mostlikelyanunpopularviewpoint · 24/12/2017 15:29

Not weird.

I wouldn't be naked in front of my father as we don't have that relationship. He used to make crude jokes about being naked when I was younger... Like would pretend to dry his balls with my personal hair dyer as a 'joke.' I wouldn't feel comfortable.

My mother on the hand- we have a great relationship and I'd feel 100% fine being naked on front of her. We go shopping and get changed in the same changing room. I'd feel fine being starkers in front of her. And my relationship with my mum is healthy and normal.

Pure click bait

I just asked 38 yo DH would he be comfortable getting naked in front of his parents.

He turned ashen and asked what I had planned for tomorrow......

WheelyCote · 24/12/2017 16:34

Weird

Cleanermaidcook · 24/12/2017 16:54

Don't see the problem, she's his mum not some random stranger yes stripping in front of.
My adult dd will chat to me if I'm in the bath or if either of us are getting changed. My son is only 8 but we have no issues being naked in front of hi or the other way round. It's just skin, he's her child, nothing wrong imo. do concede I'm not 'normal'

Oh God, now I'm going to have to ask you what your username is in reference to JanetStWalker!

ButchyRestingFace · 24/12/2017 17:43

When I googled Janet St(reet?) Walker all that came up were references to Janet Street Porter.

halfwitpicker · 24/12/2017 17:49

Very odd indeed.

Lucky girl who has a husband whose penis swings, crikey

StepAwayFromGoogle · 24/12/2017 18:49

OP, years ago I had a boyfriend who made up a spare bed with his Mum while completely starkers. He had to pump the bed up with a foot pump. Let it be said that is not an action anyone should do naked. I thought it was weird.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 24/12/2017 18:54

Good Lord, foot pumping an airbed naked with your mother in the room?
Grin Whatever next.

Chattymummyhere · 24/12/2017 18:58

Yeah that’s weird. I have no problem with general nudity/Changing rooms/Suna etc. But seeing my parents naked or them seeing me. Nope no thank you.

Grammarist · 24/12/2017 21:12

Yabu.
To me, it's really not an issue. Some people just don't have hang-ups about nudity/their bodies around their family. Each To their own, but I don't think I'd get freaked by it. That's his Mum. She'll have seen him naked before. Really not a huge deal imo.

NoStraightEdges · 24/12/2017 21:14

One for the annals.

madeyemoodysmum · 24/12/2017 21:23

I know a family that are naturists. Are your dh family liberal about nudity

InsomniacAnonymous · 24/12/2017 21:27

If the OP's husband has a relaxed attitude to nudity why did he say it would be weird if it was the OP who was naked in front of her father? That's double standards.

RegretingTheElf · 24/12/2017 21:35

YABU me for and my family nudity is the norm. But we’re a family of medics. A body is a body... it’s only sexual in context. So I very much doubt that “she wanted to see his knob” just that to her it’s just his body

itshappening · 24/12/2017 21:36

I don't find it odd. I find it more odd to feel like you would have to be clothed in front of your own mother.

Feelings · 24/12/2017 21:38

Ya know what the people saying "if your German it's ok" "if you're a medic it's ok"

This man is probably neither of these and so it's fucking abnormal to stand in front of your Mum with all ya jibbly bits out.

MyBreadIsEggy · 24/12/2017 21:51

We are pretty cool with nudity in my family to be honest.
If my mum is in the bath, I’ll still go for a weenif I need to. Nudity has never really been a major issue - obviously I’m sure my dad would rather not see me starkers, but it’s haopened a few times and we’ve never made an issue out of it

froshiechipandbrickie · 24/12/2017 21:52

He turned ashen and asked what I had planned for tomorrow....
Grin

Did you explain (or let him dread tomorrow)?
