Another tells me to chop off a minors penis.
Why do I make threads here?
To be fair, even if your mother has high blood pressure, if an inane comment from an adolescent boy is enough to set her off, she is taking life far, far too seriously. She can't honestly believe you were having an orgasm, can she? And if she does, maybe you should call her back instead of acting all embarrassed, which just makes you look guilty.
You posted an inane topic, we took it as a joke. It's not our fault your mother is nuts and you're a coward.
A 13 year old kid is talking like this and it is ok?
I can't hit him because I am over 18.
We are an upper middle class living in a $1,000,000+ home and a kid who goes to a private catholic school whom his parents pay ten grand a year, says something this vulgar to his religious mother?
I am a coward for not knowing what to tell her?
What would you do?
My nephew is 12. He has been swearing like a wounded pirate since about age 7. I remember being at the kid's table one year on vacation, and he just randomly said "bullshit!" Keep in mind, he's like 4 years old. My cousin asks "where did you hear that sort of language?" Little bastard pointed directly at me! And I knew he was lying, cause I never swore around him. So I yelled "bullshit!" Hey, he obviously already knew the word, I wasn't teaching him anything knew.
My point is that religiosity or morality or upper-crustiness are all irrelevant. If it's that big a deal, the mother should have a talk with her son. But realistically, by 13 boys are beginning to discover the joys of masturbation, they are starting puberty, and they want to act more grown up, so they will begin swearing. A lot. It's just what happens. I've personally never been offended by swearing, so if it was my son, I would commend him on a good joke. But you can probably tell from my posting that I don't take much seriously, least of all something as trivial as "inappropriate" language. In the words of the great poet Nasir Jones, "Fuck that shit."
If I were in your position, I'd call your mother back and make sure she realized he was making a joke. You don't need to apologize for your brother's actions, unless you were actually masturbating at the time (and hey, no harm no foul if you were, it's a fun thing to do), in which case you need to bribe or blackmail your brother. But if you are innocent, why on Earth would you be so worried about talking to your mother? I don't understand that part. I have always had a clear line of communication with my mother; I don't tell her everything, but I'll say some seriously fucked up shit, because that's just who I am, and my mother accepts me for it.
It sounds like your family is absolutely terrified of appearing improper. Sucks to be you. Get out of that house before it corrupts your soul.
