Welcome to DearSugar's newest feature, This or That, where I'll give you two scenarios to choose between. They won't be easy choices; sometimes you'll want both and sometimes you won't want either, but you have to choose: this or that?
You and your significant other are visiting his parents for a long weekend. On your last night, you guys go out on your own while his parents are out to dinner. When you get home the house is dark, and you're alone. Would it be worse to...
Take advantage of the moment by getting frisky without realizing you've left the bedroom door open until you hear his parents walking down the hall?
Or...
Head to his parents' room to grab a fresh towel for a hot shower, only to see his dad's naked backside and his mom topless, lunging for her robe?

At least with catching them, it wasn't really your fault. And you can laugh about it later!
1Fun new feature! Ugh both sound gross, but I think I would rather catch than be caught.
2I can't actually see myself in either situation, so it's hard to tell. I'd never go into my boyfriend's parents' room, nor would I have sex in his parents' house.
3I'd rather catch someone else in the act!
4I would rather be caught in the act. I would have a hard time looking at his parents straight in the face after seeing them have sex. Whereas I think the situation would blow over faster if it were him and I. Ew I hope neither ever happens!
5I'm with clareberry's!!!
6I would rather be caught...
I'd rather catch, because I'd be too embarrassed to face his parents again, and I think catching someone else is easier to live down than being caught.
7Why would the towels be in his parents room?
8O.o
I love this new feature! It's so fun, but so difficult to choose. I think I would rather catch his parents. I mean either way, it's going to be akward..but it would make for a good story later!
9Got to go with Catch, because I wouldn't want to be caught.

11I would rather see them, than them see me.
12It looks like most of us are in agreement!
@Random I totally agree with you. I wouldn't be able to face his parents ever again!
13Both mortifying! But I too would rather catch (
) than be caught.
14I would rather catch...better his parents than mine
15Since it's not MY parents, I'd have to say I'd rather catch the parents than have them catch me.
16higgy I'm with you on that one...
17If with anyone other than my current boyfriend, I'd say catch...
18but... his mother has ALREADY caught us before, so I went with get caught, because it can't possibly be as mortifying the second time around as it was the first, right? (And she was actually pretty cool with it.)
I would rather catch, as gross as that sounds. My boyfriend's parents have...very strong beliefs when it comes to premarital sex, and we'd never hear the end of it.
19I would...catch them like thousand times than get caught even one time.
20I would DIE if somebody-Anybody caught me screwin'. . . and on top???
(shutters).
I don't see me being in this situation though. I'm more mindful in these situations.
21I think I'd be horrified and my bf suicidal if we caught his parents, so I'd self sacrifice and rather get caught. We've been caught before though, lol... by one of his colleagues.
So I suppose it'd just be a bit of deja vu?
22i've already been in the being caught situation, but i don't think his mom really noticed, she just thought we were laying because it was dark or something.
23Catch...I would feel more embarassed if I were caught.
24Catch! Definitely.
25i rather catch than be caught
26i said caught. only because we spend tons of time with his parents. they have seen me in a bikini before and seeing everything wouldn't really be that embarrassing. plus, his dad is the type of guy who is proud to know his oldest son has a woman who loves him and is attractive...basically, they know we're sleeping together and i'm sure eventually we will forget to close a door. we'll go over and hang out with them, have some drinks and sometimes need to spend the night--i'm surprised it hasn't happened before.
this is unique though...in past relationships i would definitely prefer doing the catching.
27catch!! plus at least its his parents not your own!! =P
28It would most defenitely be worse to be caught by his parents! Oh God! I can just imagine it now. I would never be able to look in their faces again.
29I would rather catch, as I wouldn't have a problem with them (and people in general) having sex while they might (like posters above mentioned, maybe they're against premarital sex, etc.).
But if I do get caught someday... how could being on top make it more embarrassing than being on bottom or elsewhere? It would be embarrassing, period. Who cares what position you prefer!
I think that the only particularity that would make the difference would be if you're not having "traditional" sex and it shows in the position (i.e, oral, handcuffed, with a strap-on, etc.)
but other than that... come on! it's not like they never done it!
but I agree with some posters above, I wouldn't do it in his parents' house in the first place, and I wouldn't dream to step in their bedroom without asking for permission (or just commonly knock the door to check if there's anyone inside, at least!).
