Sarah Palin recently admitted she was shocked to hear that her daughter, Bristol, was pregnant because she didn't think that she was even having sex. Does your mom know about your sex life?

One of my girlfriends (who is 29) hides that fact that she's on birth control from her mom for fear that she'd have to admit that she isn't a virgin anymore. Even though her mom knows that she's in a serious relationship, my friend said she's convinced her mom thinks she's never slept with anyone because she's never told her otherwise. She and her mom are close about everything else, so she feels bad not telling her all the details.

Do you tell your parents (especially your mom) the details of your love life? Does your mom think you're more chaste that you really are?

P.S. Do you talk to your parents about your love life? How much do you tell your friends about your sex life? And are your parents super traditional?
