Did you ever have "the talk" with your parents?
When I was 12, I kept being caught with dirty magazines. I'd call up Playboy, Penthouse, High Society, etc. dropping my voice down a pitch to fool the operator, ordering up magazine subscriptions....requesting to be "billed later" (tried to order Hustler, but they weren't down with that billing later thing.) They would come to the house via mail. Because I'd get home from school before my parents got off work, I was usually able to get ahold of the mail first. Occasionally though, they'd come on my parents off day, so sometimes I'd get caught.
To make a long story short, I came home from school one day and both my parents were there. When I went to my room, I saw an opened copy of High Society magazine (that had just come in the mail that day) on my bed. About a minute later, my father comes in....and we proceed to have "the talk." The whole thing was funny, because I could tell that this all came about from them seeing the magazine come in the mail and that my mother (who was always the one who found the magazines in my room) probably pressed my father to finally step in.
I remember I asked him questions that I already knew the answer to. I just wanted to see how he'd respond. Like for instance, I asked my father what "solo sex" was (this was about a year after I had already discovered masturbation.) I can tell he didn't appreciate having to answer that question. I'll never forget how he prefaced it. He said "first of all, I think it's disgusting...."
