My dh had a shower before dinner today. I was dishing up dinner in the kitchen. Dh had a towel round his waist whilst going from the bathroom to the bedroom. Next things I know lots of laughter and giggling my 13 year old is running down the stairs laughing and said mum mum dad just said mum likes a good flash! Apparently the towel had fallen from his waist and dh said your mum likes a good flash! I was so embarrassed! My boys aged 13 and 15 thought it was hysterical!

@MrsTerryPratchett

I hate to be this poster. But essentially he joked about a sexual offence. Flashing. To boys who are of an age when unsolicited dick pics start to be an issue for girls.

It's more important to teach your boys about consent than 'banter' (god help us) at this age.

Teenage girls suffer a barrage of unsolicited sexual content. And it comes from somewhere. Grown men joking about women liking it isn't going to help, is it?

Jesus Christ. 🙄

This kind of carry-on is really not my thing but if it works for your family then so be it. I find it just crass tbh.

They are 13 and 15, not tiny kids!

Can't get worked up about the flashing or windmill ones but the coq au vin one is pretty grim and totally inappropriate

I can't imagine living in a household where this would be embarrassing.

My partner would not dream if saying the coq joke to our child, if he did, and I heard about it, you can be sure it would never happen again.
