Interesting to hear that about your local culture (though the taboo on talking about sex sounds really frustrating) - I don't think that's as much of an issue where I am. I wouldn't care about my mom bringing this up if I had an answer for it (which I do now, hooray!) because she and I are pretty close and talk a lot. I'd feel like I was being rude if I told her to back off because it was making me uncomfortable, I don't know. (She usually brings it up when we see movies or are watching TV, that kind of thing.) I'm pretty sure she's just trying to do "girl talk."

AYRT

It's not really, seeing as it's what I grew up with/am used too.

That said, it's not rude to ask someone to back off when it's something that's making you uncomfortable. If anything, it's rude when they *don't* back off after being asked, tbh - but I'm glad you're not in that position anymore.

Not to be mean, but she could suspect. As a general rule, my friends who were 100% straight as could be never got asked.

It was those who weren't 100% straight who got the "Your assignment is to write a three page paper for me on the gloriousness of the other gender's genitals." and also the casual "He's got nice eyes" "Nice eyes? You think he's sexy. You want to have sex with him. You should go ask him out." All done 'playfully', and 'teasingly' but... very high pressure.

I still remember I got a phone call from a LARP buddy. Mom came creeping in "Who was that?" "Mike" "Mike? Is he good looking? Do you like him? Tell me ore about Mike" "He's 45, bald, and has a wife." "...... Oh.
