I know, you’re grossed out just by the title of this blog post. We didn’t think of it, don’t blame us. But over on Reddit, users shared the best sex advice they got from their parents, and dare we say… some of it is actually good?

Here are a few of the tips people got from their parents. We thank them for sharing, even if they wanted to die at the time.

“When my dad caught 13-year-old me with a Playboy. I was terrified, but he said not to worry, it was normal to be curious. Then he said the wisest thing: ‘Just remember, most women do NOT look like that.'”

“My parents didn’t want to have ‘the talk’ with me so they had our family friend do it. He said, and I quote, ‘Your body is going through a lot of changes, and you’re going to get urges to do some weird shit. It’s all normal. Unless you are, like, rubbing dead puppies on your body, then come see us for help.'”

 “Touching yourself isn’t evil, and it won’t make God angry. You were made to enjoy sex, so you should. If you don’t know what you like, how will you be comfortable figuring out what your future wife likes?”

“Sex is about making another person feel good. If all you want is a nut, then jerk off instead.”

“My mom always told me to cut my finger nails the day before going on a date. Subtly putting me on game.”

“My mom: ‘You know what people who practice the pull-out method are called? Parents.'”

“If you’re too embarrassed to buy condoms, you’re too young to have sex.”
