Can you talk to your brother about it? It would probably be best to talk to him before you involve your parents. But at the end of the day your mum and dad are there to help with your problems.
These days it's easy to find topless pictures on the net for free. A few years back a boy would have had to save up his pocket money and then find a newsagent that would sell him the magazine he wanted, and then get over the embarrassment hurdle at buying p0rn in the first place! Sometimes technological advance isn't necessarily for the better!
Hi Weaza_cfc
I suggest you wipe the internet history from your computer (Tools > Internet Options and click on the Clear History button).
Wait and see if those sites come up again. If they do, then either have a word with your brother and tell him that you find it upsetting on the shared computer, and suggest he goes to an internet cafe if he really wants to look at such things; or talk to your parents about internet security/net nanny etc.
IAs some of the other ABers suggest, this is relatively normal for a boy of your brother's age and some boys develop quicker than others. But if it's bothering you then you need to talk to someone about it, if only to sort out your own feelings on the matter.
how do you know it wasn't your dad looking at those sites? most 11 year olds know how to clear the url history better than the olds do.
However, you might want to discretely mention this to one of your parents as I've just checked that site (in the interests of research & accuracy of course!) and despite its name its not a website full of topless women. Its a site that is a portal to other hardcore websites, which are totally inappropriate for 11 year old children.
Are your parents in the same room as you when you use the computer, or is it in a separate room? If it's in a separate room, why not suggest it gets moved to the family room - he'd be less likely to look up that sort of stuff if your mum was on the sofa behind him! Also, ask your parents to get some sort of internet monitor installed on the PC, e.g. net nanny. If you use AOL they have parental controls that parents can password to prevent access to unsuitable websites.
I'd agree with Ouisch that it's fairly normal for boys to look for pictures of women, but as ask-a-stupid says, sites can contain links to hardcore sites that definitely aren't suitable for under 18s.
If you are at all worried or embarrassed by the idea of your brother surfing the net for p0rn, then please talk to someone you can trust, it doesn't have to be a family member, you could talk to your teacher at school or a school counsellor, or maybe an aunty?
This is entirely normal for a lad of his age. Testosterone is now kicking in and he is beginning to notice those ugly creatures looking like a pack of Martians standing on the other side of the payground are now a little more pleasing on the eye and not as childish as he first thought.
Shortly he will turn into Harry Enfield's Kevin and then your fun will really start!
hey weaza im 14, c'mon u must've gone on *those sites* before! i know i do, and if i had the oppurtunity i would've done so at 11 aswell... like most other people say its perfectly normal. and i wouldnt worry about him going on2 hardcore stuff, no kids like that rele. i still find it slightly disgusting as there are 2 many body parts that i already have on there! 2 much info lol anyways he will probably be back on those sites in a year or so!
im quite annoyed with myself, as i consider myself to be pretty computer smart, but im feeling a bit of a n00b right now, as i did not know how to clear the url! thanks for that ask-a-stupid! now i only have the spysweeper internet tracking files to delete... im sure i'll figure it out sometime ;) lol
newayz bi bi going 2 c how 2 temporarliy disable spy sweeper, i'll get that bludy program soon! lol bi
