Today, I went on a plane and was sitting next to a mom with her 12-year-oldish daughter. Apparently, they decided to have "The talk." On the plane, right next to me. I heard everything, and actually learned new things. I'm 35. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I overheard my 11-year-old son giving my 8-year-old daughter the sex talk. FML
Today, I was sitting on a plane waiting for everyone to get on. A cute guy around my age had the option of sitting next to me or an old guy. He gave me a horrified look and immediately sat next to the old man. I got to sit next to his mother. She evil eyed me the whole time. FML
Today, at 17 years-old, I discovered how embarrassing it is to have your kid scream on a flight and how hard it is to calm them down. FML
Today, I was at the airport walking around, killing time. There was a man about twenty years older than me who kept on eyeballing me, and it really wasn't flattering. I get on the plane and guess who I get to sit next to. FML
Today, I was on a plane with my grandma. A cute guy sat down next to her. She asked his age. He told her he was 16. She said, "Oh, that's how old my granddaughter here is." She then turned to me and said loudly, "You should switch seats with me, he's HOT!" Well, at least Grandma loves me. FML
Today, after years of wonderful flying experiences, I boarded a flight and took my seat only to find a baby sitting in front of me, behind me, and to the right of me, and across the aisle from me. All of whom decided to cry in unison. It was a 9-hour flight. FML
Today, my only daughter and her boyfriend sat me down for an important talk. I was thrilled, thinking they were engaged or pregnant. They actually wanted to tell me they're moving half way around the world. FML
Today, I had to listen to my mom give a detailed description of her date last night to her friends via speakerphone... while I was trapped in the car with her. When I pointed out that I was still in the back seat, she scoffed and told me, "I have a sex life, deal with it." FML
Today, I was asleep on a plane. I woke up after feeling the plane jolt and I screamed at the top of my lungs. The little girl next to me told me I was a sissy. Everyone around us laughed. FML
Today, I went on a long flight. I was fortunate enough to sit next to a great girl. However, she must have thought I was not so great, because she moved to the empty seat across the aisle. Next to my dad. Who then told stories about how I always get motion sickness on airplanes. I then threw up. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

maybe there wasn't an open seat and even if there was she coulda blocked them out but she didn't so she obviously wanted to continue listening.

Honestly, if you've ever had consensual sex, then FYL for only learning these things at 35. If you have not, YDI. For only learning these things at 35.

12 years old is pretty damn late to get sexual education. Most girls have hit puberty by then, and I hope all girl know what menstruation is before they get heir first period. Also by the time they are 12 they've already heard a lot of things about sex in the schoolyard before they learner it properly from their parents, and THAT is where all the (dangerous) misunderstandings about sex come from.

That was very inconsiderate of them, not for you but the other passengers. It's rude and obnoxious to talk about such things in public places, would your mother sit in a restaurant and give the talk?

You should have said something to her, that shit is just rude (and creepy).

She should have joined in, helped give the talk, imagine the awkwardness for the mother and daughter then ;-P

She learned that you don't literally blow. Now she knows why she has never had a second date.
