Help, help! We're being oppressed!

I just saw another post about how parents can embarrass their children on Facebook if their kids are foolish enough to friend them.

There is another side to this issue and it’s time I say something about it.
Ok, here’s the deal.  Kids suppress their parents.  We can’t be our true selves without our kids trying to shut us down. 
Let that sink in. 
You know it’s true.
I see it all the time.  One of my friends will make a post with some innuendo…being funny, having some fun, being flirty and one of their kid pops on to say “Ew, Mom” or “Ew, Dad”.
Parents are sexual beings.
GASP!! 
There!  I said it!  It cannot be undone! 
Well...I could delete it but I won’t. 
How do you think you kids happen to exist anyway?  A ton of virgin births? 
In your world, Jesus isn’t so special is he?
And some of you have kids yourselves!  You know better!  tsk-tsk!
But heaven forbid that a parent hint at having any interest in some sexy time with their partner of choice! 
Here’s another shocker.
Your grandparents had sex. 
Your great-grandparents had sex!  I could go on!
They probably had sex a lot!  Maybe even when they were in their 70’s or 80's or dare I say it, older?  Maybe!  If they did, and I hope they did, there’s hope for us all to enjoy it for a long time!   
Sigh.
Ok.  I think I’ve scarred enough young minds now.
