You know the moment when you're watching a flick or a television show with your parents and out of nowhere a sex scene comes on? And, on the outside you're like:

And internally:

Because who really knows how your parents feel about the scene or what they're thinking.

Kerry Washington doesn't have that problem.

When everyone's favorite fixer stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday, she explained her mom has no issue whatsoever watching sex scenes--even if her daughter is in them!

"My mother's like this very elegant, graceful intellectual, but she will sit through a sex scene like nobody's business. She doesn't sweat at all. And last week, actually, I watched our Scandal episode with her, and I had like a three-minute crazy sex scene with Scott Foley, and I was like sweating and fidgeting. And, my mother was like, 'Good work. Very good work.'"

Kerry, let's hear it for your mom!
