"I hate the idea of my offspring having sex" is a special level of derangement that gets way too much societal approval.

Is it prudish not to want to hear your family members doing it though?

From a historical perspective the disgust over family having sex (and over bodily functions in general) is a shockingly recent development (only develops with bourgeois society and its large houses and individual beds and rooms). Before then, parents would often have sex in the same room or even the same bed as the children were sleeping

I'm pretty sure that's a socially transmitted preference and not an innate one. There is some level of hypocrisy (and also alienation) involved when people observe sex on film but are revulsed by observing it in everyday life.

If someone broadly prefers lower levels of noise, strawbale insulation can do some amazing things.
