Am I prudish to not like personal sex jokes in front of in-laws?

[Wouldyou83]

My partner doesn’t do it much but his brother is always making jokes about what he is going to do to his girlfriend later on in front of his parents. They find it funny and will often make remarks themselves.

Eg remarks like “he might be in for a good time later” bj related remarks, telling their son to make sure he takes his socks off… there are many more I can’t quite remember.

They will try and do it to me but I don’t really laugh, I just don’t find jokes about me and their sons sex life funny, I’m 40 years old!

Is this normal behaviour, I’ve not experienced it before in relationships. They are obviously open minded but I can tell the girlfriend feels awkward.

when you research anything you need to understand the demographics of your sample, on MN the most vocal tend to be white middle class it is slowly becoming more working class here as the threads are 'leaked' to Sun and Facebook but essentially there are absolutely British families like this. Being prudish is unquantifiable, you just need to think if you could live with them or not. I dont understand why its so hard for you to understand

i mean, so what if this is normal and you can't stomach it? I highly doubt you could ever successfully and genuinely long term train yourself to be ok with it. You already have all the information you need. What else do you want? There will be opiniond with and against you, just get on with what you believe.

My BIL does it a lot too and I know far too much about his sexual preferences based on jokes he has made. It's gross. DH doesn't do it.

There's something very grim about parents who are over-invested in their DCs sex lives.

The dad in the past has made a joke that I trapped his son with sex

Major line crossed there. On top of their other awfulness. People who make these kinds of “jokes” are showing how they really feel

No. I’d not be okay with that. If it was directed at me, words would be had.

If that makes me a prude then so be it.

Here’s a conspiracy theory though. Maybe the BIL is gay and his girlfriend is his beard so he’s got to over-egg their imaginary sexploits to put the parents off the scent
