A woman is seeking solace and advice on Reddit after she accidentally received an explicit video from her father showing him and a much younger man engaging in oral sex.
According to the Daily Star, the episode confirmed a great many questions the anonymous woman had about her father, but also left her disturbed and questioning both her feelings for her dad and their relationship.
"Quick backstory - my dad (59M) and my mum (59F) were married for 27 years and abruptly divorced four years ago," the daughter revealed in a post to Reddit. "He moved to a different city about 30 minutes away. He has had two roommates who are younger men."
She wrote how she learned by accident her father was gay and sexually active with one of his roommates, aged 22. The daughter said she was "pretty sure" her father knew his secret was out with her even though the two have never directly spoken about his sexuality.
"At first, I was extremely shocked, but as long as my dad was happy I love and accept him and whoever he chooses to love."
She received the naughty video while vacationing with her husband and in-laws. She didn't have a chance to look at the video until later, but she received the shock of her life when she saw her dad in the midst of oral sex with his roommate.
"When I sat down to look, it was a video of his roommate performing oral sex on him," she wrote. "My heart sank and I felt sick to my stomach. Obviously, no one wants to see their parent like this and it was deeply disturbing."
A short time later, she said her father sent a message telling her to forget the video.
"I told him I already deleted it and I love him and I already knew he was in a relationship with his roommate," she continued. "He brushed it off, apologized, and asked me how my day was going."
While her father may have wanted the incident to be forgotten, the image of her father on the receiving end of oral sex from his younger roommate left an indelible mark on her memory from which she, and her relationship with her father, may never recover.
"I just am unsure where to go from here," she continued. "I am not sure if I can ever have the same relationship with my dad and I'm worried things will be very uncomfortable between us going forward."
The video raised eyebrows with the woman's husband as well, who thinks it was sent on purpose, while her brother thinks it was all just a bizarre accident.
Regardless of how and why the video was sent, the daughter described herself as "very angry" with her father.
"I don't want to be," she wrote. "But I am."
She soon learned she wasn't the first person to have similar embarrassing incidents. One commenter talked about how she accidentally sent "risky pics" to her mother-in-law, while another sagely noted "accidents happen" and not to worry too much about what she saw.
Such unique family sex mishaps or eyebrow-raising situations are not that uncommon in the LGBTQ+ community. One gay dad planned to have twins with his daughter's ex-boyfriend. Another man was dating his daughter's ex while still living with his husband.
