Question for parents of grownups

Or, actually, for grownups who have parents, and remember how THEIR
parents handled this.

For those of you who have kids who are appropriately sexually active
(and if, for you, that means married -- well, then, kids who are
married), how do you handle the noise issue?

My daughter is old enough to have made the decision to become sexually
active; I really have no moral problem with that. However, I'd really
rather not LISTEN! When I finally suggested to her that there were
things I'd really rather not hear, her response was that if SHE had to
listen to her Dad and I . . .

So -- how has this been handled in your households?

I don't think of myself as a prude, and maybe I just have to get over
it. Her bedroom is right next to the diningroom, and she doesn't have
sex if we have company.
