Today, my mother decided to share with me that my father is impotent, and they hadn't had sex in a year and a half. Thanks, Mom. I can never unhear that. FML

It's moments like this when the neuralyzer from Men in Black would be legit.

I'm sure your father would be more upset to know that you know. Better to only hear about it than actually have it done to you.

There are two leading causes of impotence*: 1. Problems with blood flow to the penis 2. Trying to **** ugly women Take a good look at your mom and then you make the call. *Not necessarily in that order.

Considering that they have at least one child I would say he finds her mom attractive. Also, the fact that impotency is a problem for her points to them having an ok sex life beforehand.

And how do you know exactly that they had one child?

37- Poster 33 used the term "at least", therefore insinuating that she doesn't know how many children OP's parents have.

#33, you disappoint me. Some women let themselves go after they have kids. Hot women can become fat hags that cause penile limpness. This is not to say that the mom couldn't have been ugly all the time and the dad got shit-faced to procreate with her.

You missed the point. Since her dad is impotent, they together may have zero child. I think that is what her mother was actually trying to tell her

The feeling is mutual perdix. As great as tying to make everything a joke is, it's not always appropriate.

I have to say I like what people like perdix bring to the comment table. It's entertaining and beats reading everyone say things like "I'm so sorry. Look on the bright side." It's FML, not a group therapy session.

I'm sure you do. First, I said not always appropriate not "don't make jokes". Second, what he said wasn't even really funny just kind of rude and pathetic. Sorry, if some people prefer to be friendly. Being a douche isn't everyone's goal in life.

you do realize that a man isn't born impotent, right? It's caused often by some sort of diseases when you get older ( high blood pressure, diabetes, problems with the nervous system...). So maybe the had a completely healthy relationship until one or two years ago...

Stop complaining about Perdix. Without people like him on FML, the comments would be boring. It's called having a sense of humour. Don't take everything seriously.

You guys are missing it. The post says they haven't in a year and a half. The youngest I'd think OP is would be 15ish. Thus they had sex for 13ish years after he was born. It wouldn't take 13 years for OP's mom to turn ugly from pregnancy nor would it take the father 13 years to stop if it was pregnancy induced. And for most changes such as aging that causes "beauty" declines, it happens at such a slow pace that it typically won't be a huge issue.

Also, some of perdix's jokes are funny yes but the more of them I read the more are becoming just rude and inconsiderate. Like honestly who wants someone calling their mom ugly (true or not) unless you had a rather poor relationship with her. And yes you can say "oh it was just a joke" as you kneel at perdix's feet and lick his shoes clean, but the fact of it is sometimes the joke you want to make is just not right and you should keep it to yourself. I had to cut ties with one of my best friends because all he ever did was "joke" about Shit he shouldn't.

What I meant is, how did her mom got pregnant if her father was impotent

From her mother o.o Chances are, he wasn't impotent when they got married. Or maybe he isn't her father.

It's your mom. She opened up to you, is it that hard for you to be supportive?

What are you complaining about? At least you know your parents don't have sex. Damn it must suck to be them... You think they don't enjoy sex and that it doesn't support a healthy marriage? F their lives...

Unfortunately, I know just how you feel. My parents each used to tell me about their sex life. I never asked and I did NOT want to hear it!

Way to have some empathy and provide some emotional support for the woman who brought you into this world and raised your ungrateful ass. Can you imagine how much that must suck for her (well, them, really)?

i totally agree with you on that point. i would rather NOT hear my parents when they have sex, but i know that they do it and it's okay. i want my parents to be happy and enjoy their relationship. if my mother had some issues she wants to talk about, i'm trying to help her ( even if it ay be embarassing for me) because i love her
