was wondering and sorry if i may have asked this in a different category, but how can a teenage guy ask mom about guy stuff, do moms know guy things? do moms wonder if we are developing ok, down there and stuff, is it ok do ask her guy stuff or would it be better to ask here,, to moms on the question area? Tks

Most mom's know some guy stuff. I have a son and I hope that he will be able to talk to me about stuff. I think it's ok to ask questions here if you can't talk to your mom, but remember there are a lot of jerks on here and they don't always give helpful answers. Moms do wonder if there sons are developing ok and if you have questions you should try talking to her first. You may both be a little uncomfortable especially at first, but that's normal. I'm sometimes a little uncomfortable talking about stuff with my teenage daughter, but you get over it. If you find that you really can't talk to her, then maybe a grandfather or uncle. But your mom loves you and its probably been hard on her raising you by herself. It will probably make her feel good if you come to her with your questions. It will show her that she's doing a good job and that you trust her. Good luck.

I was a single mom for many years. I had and still have an open door policy with my twins. (they are going on 13) I told them never to be embarassed that if they did not feel comfortable I would have one of my brothers, father, etc. speak to them.
Of course I knew there were going to be things I could not answer, because I am a woman, not a man.
Ask her, she will do her best to point you in the right direction. That is what being a mom is all about.
Good Luck

Ask your mom and gage her answer. If she feels uncomfortable answering, she'll probably let you know. You might be surprised and get the the answers you're looking for. Moms are savvy but sometimes they're limited in their point of view. They may lack experience or have very religious, one sided points of view. If she's not open minded, you'll know after you ask the questions. Don't beat around the bush, just ask her matter of fact to avoid being uncomfortable. If not, don't fret, you can probably find very clinical answers on a lot of medical web sites. Why not your dad or a trusting uncle?

As a mom of a 16 y/o "guy" I think it is awesome for my son to talk to me about "guy" things. I may not know everything there is to know about things that he comes to me with, but as a mom, I think that it's my job to "find out" things that I'm not exactly sure about. If your mom is anything like me, she would be very understanding when you go to her and talk to her about issues, and concerns that you are having. Also, if she isn't quite sure if she has the correct answer right then....I'm sure she's able to find out, so she can help you out with answers.....I hope this helps! I know it's hard for guys to just sit down and talk to their mom's, but if your mom is a "good mom" she's more than happy to help you in any way she can. Good luck!

If your mom went through what she went through to have you with all the things the doctor saw of your mom in the delivery room then you can bet your bottom dollar she will talk to you just about anything you want to know. Don't be shy or embarrassed. Just go with it and speak calmly. It will be OK I'm a mom of a 10 year old and I know my kid will be ready to talk to me when he has a questions. have a good day!!!

I can understand how difficult that must be - but I dont think that most parents really discuss their childs physical development with them, its usually really uncomfortable for both parties. If you are curious about things happening to you - there are numerous books etc that you can find that will explain most of the things you are wondering about. Your mom will probably be able to help you with most things that you want to ask her about though - she probably knows a lot more than you think.

just open your mouth and ask.
trust me, she knows about guy things. probably better than your uncle does!
she wonders if everything is o.k., but it's not like she's going to ask 'so hows your thing, dude'.
and if you have a problem talking with her then ask her to get you a book about whatever question it is you have.
you will be AMAZED what kind of answers you will get from mom (honesty!) and how much less like a mom she can be.

you should talk to your mom,because she will think of whats best for you first. moms do know some stuff,maybe not everything but she'll know the stuff that matters, what she doesn't know, feel free to ask us( i am a mom and there's is a lot of guys in my family) so my son lucked out there so i'll do my best to help you if you need. goo luck.

My mom raised me since I was 9 and I used to ask her all kinds of things regarding teen issues. You would be shocked and amazed at what your mom knows. She really wants you to ask her, she just won't come out and tell you. She doesn't want to pressure you. But moms are more sensitive to their sons and will easily be able to answer your questions. If you feel too awckward, ask a male guidance counselor, or some other male you know. But honestly, don't be ashamed....she's your mom.

She sounds infantile and prefer she's nonetheless residing interior the previous!
