up until a year ago my long term girlfriend. Not for fear of them not liking her but I just didnt want to deal with the "culture clash" I'm black and she's vietnemese. Well whatever it all turned out fine in the end except for the inevitable "So are you chinese or philipino?"

In fifth grade I flushed a progress report with an F down the toilet. Other than that, however, I don't really have much to hide. If some people here and friends in real life are any indication, I'm apparently rather straight-laced without trying.

Erh, well...

...porn?
This, the classic 'under the mattress' seemed to do the trick

It was much harder finding porn before the internet (pun intended)
Except that now I have to hide my Internet porn in a file nobody will ever, ever read. GTA San Andreas Character Settings Gallery. See any bastard try and find that particular file on my family computer and I'll gladly experience the humourful shame of watching my very Catholic Dad's head explode.

I never hid anything and I think that pissed off my parents a bit more. One day I was smoking in the kitchen when I was 15 and my dad walked in, he wasn't particularly pleased. Also, when I was 17 after disappearing for a couple of days (mad party, so worth it) I came back home to receive a MAJOR bollocking on account of I'd disappeared and (my friends and I) left empty bottles of J.D, Bacardi, Morgans Spiced and Vodka lying around my room.

After that last one there wasn't much point in trying to hide anything, I'd done the worst and received the worst, although I do hide dope when I have it, not out of not wanting to get caught, it's just better that I don't rub it in their faces.

Hmmm, I tried hiding porn, but she found it, so all of mine's digital. Of course, I'm 20 now, so yeah, she doesn't stop me anymore. I DO hide the fact that I like BDSM (and am even a sub with a Mistress) though. That's just something I'd rather not have to talk to her about...

Myself I guess. As per teenage life, I've had my share of confusions and issues and I never want them to know about it. I don't like them seeing the stories or the thoughts I write down (calling it poetry sounds pretentious, so I won't), because every time they see any of it, they assume something is very wrong with me and I need to talk about it.

I only remember one thing I ever had to hide, and that was in middle school, when I was serving as the Keeper of the Red Folder. The red folder in question contained all the Playboy issues anyone from my class managed to get somehow - the whole thing was kept by each of us in turns lasting about a week.

Other than that, never. There were a few minor things I was hiding from my parents on my own accord, but I don't think they would be upset or anything if they knew about them. And I'm not telling anyone on a public forum about those.

Oh, but they still don't know that I've lost my virginity years ago.

What are you going to do now, sell the accumulated info from the thread to our parents?

Just a few 15, 18 rated DVDs when I was younger. But since am of age now, and my mum no longer minds me watching 18 rated films, then I don't have to hide them anymore.

Smoking & drinking. Sexing later on, not because I would get into trouble, it was just too weird for me to talk about it with my parents for a few years when I was younger. I also hid a giant amount of weed for my friend once too, seriously, it could have put my parents away for about 5 years if they would have been caught with it in the house.

Besides my asexuality? Nothing.

I wasn't exactly a bad kid so they didn't seem to keep tabs on me. I was able to drink well before 21, and I saw movies that were incredibly violent too while growing up, so there wasn't much to hide haha.

What don't/haven't I hidden from my parents?

I had to hide my forum going for at least 4 years.
I had to and still do hide my porn.
I've had to hide my Shounen-Ai and Yaoi (not all Yaoi has sex).
I've had to hide a lot of my writing and art, and still do.
Same with my various comic books because they're too violent.
For some reason though, they've always been loose with video games and music. Never could figure out why.

Edit: I've had to hide my discovery of my preferences and fetishes. They still think I have no clue about what I really want.
