    So, last night I was on my laptop looking up heaps of LGBT stuff, when my mum walks in, demands to use my internet (she only ever does it to snoop, she has no respect for privacy) then and there. So I deleted my history just in time, and she got suspicious. I said that I had just finished planning an essay, and was giving myself a break by going onto Facebook. Luckily, she bought it. Anyone else had close escapes, or actually caught?

    I got caught on LGBT porn when I was 14. Twice. By both parents. Both times. Though my first bust was due to my sister's "horror movie shriek" when she saw the pic of one cowboy going down on the other. :roflmao:

    It's hilarious in retrospect but overall, it wasn't funny and the reactions from my parents were why I supressed myself for so long.

    Nope! Never been caught watching porn or searching any LGBT topics. I've memorized all the commands I'll need to know in case anyone walks in unexpectedly. Whether that be to switch tabs or close the page, they're all useful when you need 'em.

    Hopefully, it'll stay that way too.

    Actually about one month ago I was on EC using my kindle and my dad walked up behind me. That scared me, luckily he has no idea how to use anything electronic so he probably wouldn't understand that I can get internet on it. So luckily he didn't notice.

    Yep! Every time my mom or dad walk in the room, I do the command on my laptop to close the page. I have "delete browsing history upon exit" also switched to on, so I can click off the internet, and if they use it, it won't appear.

    My mom walked in my room very recently when I had this up, and luckily I had YouTube on another tab, so I clicked over to that. Very close, but not been caught yet. :grin:

    My mother was very strict about internet privacy. Until my siblings and I turned 18, she tracked all of out internet activity and we were rarely allowed to bring our laptops into our own rooms. It upset me at the time, but I also knew she was just trying to protect us. It's also probably why I didn't have access to any LGBT content until I was in college, so I've never been "caught." :shrug:
     
  7. I was in my room and I was watching gay porn and my sister walked in my room (this was last year) and I panicked. Luckily it was on incognito mode so she couldn't find out.

    Thankfully my parents have a bit of respect for privacy... except for the day my mom read some of my Skype messages. Thankfully I told her I was questioning a few days before that, so she didn't make a huge deal about it.

    My mom caught me in my room when I was 15 looking at lesbian porn...It was terrible. *face palm* luckily for me she had been drunk and forgot by the following morning.

    Yeah, my computer is actually right by the kitchen and between the hallway, so it can be challenging, with the exception of midnight browsing. There's this NSFW tumblr page I've been obsessed with as of late, and there have been a few close calls between last night and this afternoon.

    I try to use my phone's browser for these things, since room time is generally a lot more private.

    My older sister walked in to me surfing porn on tumblr...

    Not sure if a guy or two in underwear made any difference.

    at least they not nude.

    I never had that problem before I come out to my parents. I have a lock on my door and they think I deserve my privacy. So they always knock. But my parents know I have an account on here lol I talk to them about It. (I came out last year to my parents on Feb 29 or around there. Lol I was 14 at the time.)

    Very close calls... but never really caught. Although I can tell my mom itches to see what I do online, she respects my privacy and never really asks. My brother can tell by the reflection off my glasses (which I can barely see words on screen without), so with him I've got to be a bit more careful.

    I almost got caught once watching a gay porn video, yes I went there.
    My dad just barged into my room, through a locked door. I had the lights off and was on my 7-inch laptop. I saved myself by pausing the video, throwing the laptop across the room into my laundry basket and diving under the covers. Scared the heck out of me. The charger port on the laptop took a hit though :frowning2:

    I didn't have a computer growing up, so I guess I didn't have to worry about it. lol Though now, since I let my mom use my laptop, I'm sort of conscious of that. I did get caught looking at another guy's butt once, but I played it off as if I was daydreaming and I wasn't paying attention to where I was looking. xD

    Mission impossible made possible by you. Such a trooper =p It warranted a quote.

    I don't think I've ever gotten caught, on this site, or doing or watching... other... stuff.

    1 milisecond too close! My mum walks in, but luckily she was looking to the washing machine. My computer froze up and wouldn't go off, so at the last possible second I switched the power off and told my mum exactly what happened: "The computer froze!" :lol:
