Do you find talking about sex embarrassing?

[Mentor]

Sorry to say, the poll addition strikes again, Yoshimitsui comment made me think of it and no its stuck in my brain.

So do you find talking about sex embarrassing? Maybe just in front of certain people, maybe in real life, possibly all the time. Any idea why? i've never really had the feeling and from that mange to embarrassing many of me friends in public places both unintentionally but with often pretty lol worth results.

So whats your thoughts, plus do you think having had sex changes that?

[GoldenMerc]

not really, im open about it, how many people iv slept with, if iv used protection ect... obv it would be a different story saying it to parents or the older generation but to mates im fine with it.

[Suspective]

HaHa, no way. Its something people should be proud of.

[dogboy123]

**MOST** people will have sex i their life, so I dont see why ppeopl find it embarrassing

[Mint]

HaHa, no way. Its something people should be proud of.

Proud of sleeping with people? It all depends on who that person is.

I don't think there's a problem with speaking about it, but because it's viewed by some as morally wrong, and some people are embarrassed by it I probably wouldn't in certain situations. But no, I'm not embarrassed by speaking about sex.

[Meanies]

I only think its odd infront of family:P

[AlexOC]

It's not wrong anywhere imo.

[FlyingJesus]

I don't talk about it to my family but that's because I don't talk to them about ANYTHING personal. It's not that I don't get on with them, I just prefer to keep them separate from the rest of my life

[buttons]

i'm too open for my own good i always get told off even by my family, not like i discuss details or tell them who with but ye most virgins get embarassed or go too far when they talk about it not really having a clue (so many examples here) but i don't mind talking to people about it maturly, i only get embarassed if it's someone i like n he asks me bout it:( i'll just put infront of opposite sex on the poll, not really the case but only in that kinda situation

[JACKTARD]

only infront of parents

[e5]

It sort of depends. It could just come up and be appropriate and not embarrasing, but depending on the context it can and cannot be embarrasing.

[Immenseman]

depends who with. like friends is too general. some friends i'd find it a bit embarrassing, others i'd happily talk about it. same with family. same with people online. same with everyone really.

[Richie]

To family yes, to friends no.

[Kardan]

Only family. I don't talk about anything like that with them really.

[Wahey]

I'm open about it, it's a fun topic to talk about :)

[Pyroka]

Uhmmm... Tbf I've not got much to chat about in terms of sex still being a virgin, but when theres like a serious convo with my mate having sexual issues or what-have-you, I won't be like LOL WILLIES yknow? I can talk about it to my parents cuz well, they dont give a crap. It's just a topic yano? People get so bent out of shape about people who talk about it too much :rolleyes:

[Hazza]

Never, but i do think its inappropriate for some situations
Tbh, me and my mates are the kind of people who say and think what we feel sooo it dont really bother us. But around (grand)parents its embarrassing, yes!

[Feep]

Lol I say really weird stuff to my parents, and my parents were bought up not to swear and stuff like that.

But Ill talk about gay stuff, and joke about.

[Soy]

no I feel like I have too much testosterone

[Abbie.]

with family and people who make me feel unconfortable yes

its fine with my boyfriend and people i generally tell everything too though. oh and my sister, even though she counts as family

[ecstasy]

im comfortable talking about it round mates but its always oddly awkward round family.

[RandomManJay]

Don't have a problem with it, but I don't really talk to many people about sex and even then it rarely comes up, we just aren't really interested in each others sex life :P.

[Metric1]

when i was growing up sex was something that was not shielded from the kids. i didn't know exactly what it was growing up, but i know my parents had sex at my birthday party once, it was a sleep-over and my room was close to theirs, and it must have been rough because their bed was hitting the wall and i remember my friend asking me what was happening and i was like i dunno, they're sleeping? i also remember when i was little my mom and dad would go into their room, sometimes on my dads lunch break and i guess.. do stuff. LOL, i can talk about ANYTHING with my mom and not many people can say that!

[Sammeth.]

Not really, my parents are very approachable and I can talk to them about anything cus they're nice like that. Though obviously there are situations where talking about sex is inappropriate like in a creche.

[Mickword]

YEAH, who doesn't well with your friends no, but family yeah.

[Catchy]

I don't find it embarrsing, me and my friends are all open towards sex anyway so for us we talk about it like you'd talk about anything esle just normally. As for the family part I don't mind it I speak to my mum about sex and stuff it's not awkward just funny :)

[Johno]

not really, its just one of those things that I think there is a kinda stigma about it which makes people really uncomfortable. there is the odd situation where talking about it would be horribly inappropriate.

I personally don't mind talking about it but quite a few of my friends and such find it a really uncomfortable topic.

[Recursion]

WHY WOULD YOU TALK ABOUT IT IN FRONT OF FAMILY?!?! WHYYYYYYYYYY?!!!!?!?!?1

*shudders*

[Samantha.]

Only in front of the family.
But I try to avoid the convo

[luce]

Never, but i do think its inappropriate for some situations like infront of family, in church with the person your sleeping with family or close friends.

[Janet Snakehole]

i don't find it embarrassing unless its infront of my family ha

[leah]

I can talk about it online easily but when im telling my friends irl things it seems quite awkward.

[LuketheDuke]

If you go into the many wonderful details I guess things can get weird but as a general subject its just another thing to talk about.

[iPlonker]

when im talking about it to my family yes, but otherwise no.

[DamianLove]

My family and friends are very open about sex.
I've just never found that a problem with anyone.

[Casanova]

No, on a superficial level it's quite natural to discuss all of life's fabulous pro's. On a deeper level sex, sexuality and having a personal connection is one of the most natural effects and actions of life. It's the basis on which we as a race are created, continue to produce and shall do until evolution has a bigger part to play... or could do. It can be embarrassing if you are a nervous person or you're discussing what went wrong!

I speak about it to workmates, friends etc. I'm an open person though.

[Toughened]

Depends on the situation I guess but generally no. It's one of the main topics I get into with friends lmao. It always just seems to crop up somehow, although some friends it's a no go area 'cause they just don't talk about it at all and get easily embarrassed.

With family it's a little worse. My mum doesn't talk about anything like that, and well, my dad doesn't get embarrassed by things like that but he sounds patronising when he mentions something along the lines. Like I don't have a clue what he's talking about. I know way more than he thinks I know. It's like dad, I'm not eight anymore...

But yeah, most of the time it's fine.

[ProudFall]

Nothing wrong with sleeping with people. After all, we are only human! :D

[Alison:D]

Personally I don't but that's because of my mum works in a clinic talking about teenage pregnancy, safe sex and that sort of stuff so we talk about it quite alot.
Obviously though, talking about it all the time would be quite innapropriate.

[camera]

yes. but not in front of family (:

[MrGazet]

well i dont find it embarrassing most of the times but sometimes yeah.
i find it quite in front of my parents and that's just bout it

[Skaboy15]

Only to my parents :P

[Inspiration]

I don't see the need to be embarrased about this topic.
Everyone is at it or has been at some time in their life.
It's funny though when parents start questioning teens on their sex life but i just say none of your business or laugh :P

Also in the times were at It's generally ok to have sex and you got to remember even though it may be rotten

"Were did you come from"

so yes going back on topic sex isn't embarrasing and shouldn't be :)

[MrRem]

Not a problem about it.

[kuzkasate]

I find that when I talk about sex to friends etc I'm fine, but when it comes to family and stuff I go shy lmao

[BlueLord]

I'd never talk about sex infront of my family, out of respect and dignity. But If the topic of conversation comes up with friends, then I'm pretty open.
