Well, when I got into the bathroom, he had it perched atop his little shmeckel like a jaunty sombrero. He looked up at me like I had just caught him strangling a kitten. Instinctively, I yelled, "Get that off of there, dude! That things covered in germs!" (meaning the hair catcher, not the shmeckel.)
He instantly complied and I composed myself. I felt bad that I had kinda startled him, so I just threw out the line, "Dude, you have to take care of your penis..." He seemed to be waiting for the thought's completion, so I lamely added, "... so it will take care of you."
What?! I swear, this kid is going to be in therapy for the rest of his goddamn life.
Not surprisingly, he queried, "What does that mean, Dad?" Of course, I had no response except for my standard "fuck-if-I-know" look. Then it seemed to click for him and he continued, "Oh, I get it. Like when I get older and I'm someplace and I REALLY have to pee, or something."
Grateful for an out, I said, "Yep! Exactly!"
I'm such an idiot.
Of course, he couldn't stop there. As he got out of the tub and started drying off, he said, "Dad, what would happen if poop came out of your penis?"
My initial response, obviously, was to do a reflex nose laugh and almost blow snot across the room. Then I seriously considered his question and answered, "Well, let's hope I never have to find out."
Then he dropped his towel and did the naked spazmo dance back to his room.

PMSL...not a night goes by when my two boys arent going on about their "bits" or doing some kinda schwinger dance naked to their room from the bathroom. They sometimes come to the loung naked and do it in front of the girls..so without making it sound like they are doing something wrong or dirty I have learned to say, "Hey Tom/Nick...take it to your room and do the naked schwinger dance in there ok...you are allowed to do it in there in your own privacy but don't do it out here for all to see".
I remember son number 2 a while back going to me, "Oh mum, look what my thing is doing, isnt it funny, it has GROWN BIG". I just said to him, "Yeah, and that will happen from time to time, even when you wake up and need to pee, but when you are awake, if you don't want it to grow then you shouldn't realy touch it alot". He said, "Oh, ok mum, then I won't hurt it either, or wee on the lid of the toilet..because it doesn't shoot straight into the toilet when it is big".
So there you go, out of the mouths of babes.
Cheers Cazzie!!!
