Is it too much to ask you do it inside?

Just popped into the kitchen to put cooled dinner in the fridge. Look out the back window to see neighbors over the back doing it against their back fence, in the alley, for anyone looking out to see. They're clothed but it's completely obvious what they're doing.

I don't have kids. They have at least 4. Is it really that difficult to use the bedroom? I can also see their kids watching telly through their window.

I've not long moved in here and curtains for the kitchen didn't seem so urgent until now.
Wasn't trying to peep. Totally unavoidable in close together terraces. Just shocked and shook.

YABU - you do it where you can as a parent
YANBU - throw a blanket over them so you don't have to see.

Ah this reminds me of my hedge shaggers. Thems were the days Grin

Far, far more 'fucking nuts' to suggest that not much wanting to see people fucking in the alley outside one's home is an example of an 'angry, aggrieved, passive-aggressive, disappointed woman . . . losing their shit.' 'Passive-aggressive' how? 'Disappointed' how? It's a Public Order offence, and it's fucking gross.
But it's Christmas

Its grim and more liekt to be a fetish about having sex outdoors, rather than because of the kids. Imagine if the kids went looking for them. It's not a 'good for them' moment.

We had it here. Dp opened the door and shouted 'ffs.....do they know everyone can see and 'susan' said she will call the police next time'

They stopped it and haven't been back since.

@BlueRoseInBloom

Open the door and shout, "lick it, Darren".

If she turns round, she's a Mumnetter.

Thank you for making me laugh, I needed this today!

Not a troll. Though they've got hair I'm not ashamed to be jealous of. Lol

@Longingforatikihut

Thankfully they were gone before call the midwife.

As for those who suggested it's my fault for not having kitchen curtains yet. Surely you don't all live with the curtains permanently closed for fear of boots knocking in the street?

You mean they do it in the daytime too? and actually in the street? Shock
BigYellowHat · 25/12/2021 22:56

Cringe 😬 Standing up sex is rubbish anyway plus outside in December! They must be desperate for some alone time to do that.

MorganKitten · 25/12/2021 23:00

Maybe they are trying to put a spark back into the relationship and being spontaneous or edgy.

ElEmEnOhPee · 25/12/2021 23:26

Genuinely almost resorted to this earlier! My son was home, my recent ex popped round (not DS father) and one thing led to another, we almost went to the beach (ex is 6'6 so too tall to do it in the car)!! Blush

Normally I'd say YANBU but desperate times call for desperate measures, let them have their Christmas shag!

tillyandmilly · 25/12/2021 23:36

Yuk! I would slam the outside door !

TameDucksAtChatsworth · 25/12/2021 23:57

I really cannot believe posters defending a couple rutting in the alleyway.

I judge and I judge them as dirty animals and I judge those who don't judge them as part of the big push towards society going downwards.

It's that push that allows dirty fuckers to feel brazen enough to rut in the street, shit in the street, take drugs in public and show their fannies, tits and cocks where ever they please.

Yuk! More judgement and shame on those who think it's just a larf.

They're dirty fuckers. If it was a dog and a bitch, ok, but humans- come on!

VestaTilley · 25/12/2021 23:59

YANBU! Disgusting and inappropriate.

I’d have gone and thrown a bucket of cold water over them.

VainAbigail · 26/12/2021 00:09

That’s nice.

KloppsTeeth · 26/12/2021 00:14

Oi! Not in the ginnel. Grin

LuckyAmy1986 · 26/12/2021 07:34

Can't believe people think this is alright! Good for them?

What if your young child looked out of the window and saw a couple shagging, seeing something they really shouldn't have to because two people (who may or may not get their kick from being seen) couldn't keep it inside? It's so, so unfair to do it anywhere where you might be seen in this way. Fucking vile actually. If my DC saw this I would be devastated, being exposed to something like this way before they should.

GoodnightGrandma · 26/12/2021 07:43

You need a garden sprinkler 😉

Teenagequeenwithaloadedgun · 26/12/2021 07:47

I can't understand why 1 in 5 people think it's acceptable. It's vile.

Joystir59 · 26/12/2021 07:51

It's illegal isn't it?

InFiveMins · 26/12/2021 08:12

@LuckyAmy1986 completely agree. It's vile behaviour. I'd report them to the Police.

BringUsSomeFrigginPudding · 26/12/2021 11:09

That is gross. Don't care if that makes me a prude. Wink

Control yourselves until you can have a reasonable expectation of privacy! It's not okay to inflict your sex life on other people!

On Christmas Day? I am sure they'll rush round and arrest them. Grin

nothingcanhurtmewithmyeyesshut · 26/12/2021 13:17

Weirdos. I'd laugh it off but tell them straight when I saw them that I don't want to see their sex life.

If my kids could see it, it would be another story, I'd be out there filming them and telling them what sick freaks they are, having sex in public where children could see them. Then I'd call police.

Exasperatedhousehunter · 26/12/2021 14:05

I’d be tempted to put an anon note through the door. That would hopefully shame them into not doing it again.
