26 Really Inappropriate "Friends" Moments That Don't Hold Up In 2019

Remember when Ross kissed an unconscious woman at a party and it ended up being his sister?

We asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell us which moments from Friends are actually really problematic and inappropriate. Here are the jaw-dropping results.

1. When Ross tried to kiss his cousin, and his excuse was that he "hadn't had sex in a very long time."

They're eating popcorn, then Ross says "I'm going in" and she asks what the hell he's doing

2. When Monica literally had sex with a high school student.

When told "You never told me how old you were," Monica said that her lie "didn't make one of us a felon in 48 states"

3. When Ross was mad that Ben played with a doll, so he spent the entire day trying to make him play with "manly" toys.

Caption: "Why is my boy playing with a Barbie?"

4. When everyone made gay and sexist jokes because of Joey's bag.

"You look just like your son, Mrs. Tribbiani"

7. When everyone glossed over the fact that Frank Jr. and Alice had a 26-year age difference, and she was his actual schoolteacher.

She says he was her best student, he says she was his best teacher, they kiss: "If that doesn't keep kids in school, what will?"

8. When Ross dated one of his students, and everyone joked about it like it was no big deal.

Friends ask if she's leaving because it's a school night and she has homework and asking when's her birthday because "It's just been so long since I've been to Chuck E Cheese"
