I realize that keeping our ideas to ourselves is not an easy
thing for interfering children to do. There's only so much
we can say about the necessity of presidential elections at
the dining room table, and in any case, the cable box is in
the family room. To escape the repetitious flow of morning
into night and from chad to chad, we naturally turn to our
computers for porn. Consider the possibility that, by looking
at pictures of women, your mom is reminding herself of younger
days, that she's not ready to "cheat" on her husband with
male photography yet, that it's really none of your business.
Even if she is a lesbian, you can certainly provide her the
privacy she never afforded you and your sex manuals. To distract
yourselves from the issues at hand, you might take up the
time-honored task of getting Mom out of the house. Take her
shopping, invite her friends over for lunch, send her a gift
certificate to your favorite salon/therapist/massage parlor.
As long as your mom shows signs of life and self-help, you
don't need to worry. Six years is not too long to wait.
Porn obviously offends you, and you have a right to make
a public stink about it. However, I recommend knocking before
entering the den next time. If you really can't stop obsessing
on this incident, if you can't bear to allow your father and
mother a private life, then try to distract yourself by taking
your dad out shopping. Sometimes our own preoccupations can
be cured with a little fresh air and public exposure.
