Today, my mother was driving me and my friends to a wedding. My friends and I were talking about birth control, and then my mother chimes in, "Yeah, I used to use the sponge, but the spermicide would always burn your dad's penis." FML
I agree, your life sucks (25288) - you totally deserved it (3671)

(0)Hey, you talk about birth control or anything sex related around the parents, expect the hear some things you didn't want to know from time to time!
omgggggg that's SO BAD!!!!! ugh i hate it when parents/any older generation talks openly about sex. i mean i guess that's sort of a ridiculous way to think but for me it's like, i'd never tell my mom a thing and i sure as hell don't want to know about anything she's done.

(0)Actually, that was pretty nice of her to give you a head's up (pun not intended until now).

You deserved that one - "let's talk openly about sex in front of mum, but if she responds at all I'm going to post to FML". Stop whinging.

(0)I totally agree, Jesus, what an arrogant little bitch. So you can sit there yabbering away about your birth control but when your mum joins in it's 'gross'. How absolutely pathetic. Grow up!
(0)#3- I'm 19, but it's 100% natural. They probably think it's gross to hear 15 yr olds talking about sex. Lots of people have sex, it's a fact. Deal with it.
#7- I agree 100%
That's hysterical!
And grow up, at least she's open with you, unlike some parents who pretend like sex doesn't exist.

Yeah...talking about sex/birth control in front of your mom means that it's okay to talk about it. So, yes, you deserved that.
The "sponge" totally reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when Elaine has to decide if a guy is "sponge worthy." I bet your mom has seen it. :)

Your mom is awesome! What a wicked sense of humor.
I agree with #7 and #9.

(0)are you retarded? i plan to completely humiliate my kids...especially in a situation such as that. It's likely to be just as awkward for her to hear about your sex life as you to hear about hers. Suck it up
Sorry, but you deserved this. If you're talking about BC in front of mom, you're opening the door to comments like that.

Newsflash: Your dad has a penis, and your parents had sex.
When you are a bit older, you might find it as funny as most people do how youngers try to ignore these things.

(0)If your mom wanted to make you feel uncomfortable enough to change the subject, I'd say she did a pretty good job...

(0)Never talk about sex related things in front of your parents idiot

(0)You so deserve that. Don't talk about something like that in front of your mom if u don't want her making comments like that, and if ur gonna talk about that stuff infront of her expec those comments. So grow up and stop bitchin..... Meanwhile I'm gonna read ur FML again and laugh my fucking ass off again.
(0)Sure, "you were born as a result of sex." Doesn't mean you need or want to hear the details.
To me, it's not ok for parents to be straight-up graphic with their kids, and it's definitely not ok for them to allow their kids to hear them or see them have sex.
But... since you started the conversation, you deserve it.
