17 People Share the Awkward AF Moments Family Found Out About Their BDSM Fetish

5.

My mom was furious with me after finding my toy bag. She was screaming at me in the kitchen about how she couldn’t believe I let men hit me with these things. Then I told her “Mom I’m the one hitting them!” I dont think she really knew how to process that. She just paused then went “Oh..” and walked away. We haven’t spoken about it since.

When I was starting to get into things I needed someone to talk to so I turned to my older sister for some support. My emotions were all over the place and I was questioning my very sanity. While I was sobbing and we were hugging, she started to chuckle. “Polka dot,” she said “there’s nothing wrong with you. I’m into that sort of stuff too! … In fact I’ve been moderating a few BDSM and sub sites for several years now.” We had a good chuckle and now just figure it runs in the family lol. I love her dearly and she’s been a tremendous resource. Still makes me laugh though.

Happens to me all the time to be honest, even though my parents aren’t very religious, they just think it’s ”awkward” to talk about sex…well, and then there was that awkward moment when my mom got a little tipsy and told me about the handcuffs she just bought. I guess I know now where I got that preference – damn you genetics -.-
