Today, I walked in on my 17 year-old son masturbating. He froze, raised his hand and tried to use the "force" to remove the memory. I'm regretting ever having let him watch Star Wars. FML

Don’t you knock before entering his bedroom? (I’m assuming that is where he was)

so your 17 yr old needs your permission to watch a movie?

"Why do I get the feeling you're going to be the death of me?"

It's now time to let him watch how you lock a bedroom doorknob (or how to install a locking bedroom doorknob)....

I’m guessing someone else needs to learn to knock before opening a closed door too.

At least he didn't challenge you to a light-saber duel.

OMG that’s Embarrassing. I got caught once too when I was 16. I’m 48 now;

You have a teenage boy, and you haven't learned to knock before entering a room that he is in, with the door closed? YDI for not respecting his privacy.

I guess I would have said "Oh, I'm sorry", and left the room. There is nothing wrong with him exploring his body in his bedroom with the door closed. It's normal, and it's a healthy way for him to learn about himself sexually. I wouldn't make a big deal out of it, and I certainly wouldn't make him feel embarrassed about it.
