And according to Gerry his adult daughters, Jenny Young and Angie Warner, also don't have much discussion with him about the overnight Fantasy Suite dates portion of The Golden Bachelor season when he was preparing for it.
"Oddly, it was almost an area where I think we kind of avoided conversation," Gerry told The New York Post of his Fantasy Suites conversation with his children.
Gerry's daughters apparently let him take the lead when it came to talking about The Golden Bachelor season's round of overnight Fantasy Suite dates.
"They were kind of holding off, waiting to see what Dad did with it," Gerry shared.
"And, you know, when Fantasy-Suite nights rolled around, it seemed very normal and natural and actually was a watershed moment for my journey. So it was very good."
Gerry has yet to reveal -- and may never reveal -- whether he had sex in either of his Fantasy Suites.
Gerry admitted to Leslie it had been "a while" since his last intimate encounter, and he seemed more focused on asking tough questions and diving into more personal matters with his Final 2 bachelorettes.
When Gerry sat down for a chat with The Golden Bachelor host Jesse Palmer on the latest episode, Gerry suggested he could still have a little fun in the bedroom, which made Jesse squirm in his chair.
"Many people will be looking at [Fantasy Suites] as, do people my age still knock boots and have a good time behind closed doors? I mean your parents, are you still feeling like mom and dad come down the stairs with a little extra spring in their step?" Gerry asked Jesse.

But on a more serious note, Gerry said he loved the idea of "pillow talk" and getting to know these women on a deeper level off-camera.
"The intimacy is there just because of the proximity and the level of communication goes way up because the barriers go way down," Gerry shared.
Gerry explained how he didn't want to rush sex but he'd want to read the room during his dates.
"When the time is right, intimacy is, oh sure! What are crazy?! What are you nuts?! It's like there are moments when you go, 'I'm not going to pass this up; this may be the last time in my life!'" Gerry joked with Jesse.
Gerry said he wanted to make sure a woman felt as comfortable as possible before even thinking about having sex, and if that led to something more physical, then he'd let it happen organically.
"[To] ask the difficult questions that are strictly between two people, and also have the opportunity to be physically intimate with each other," Gerry said.
"At this age, it's more gentle, it's slow, it's something you can savor, because it's something that's the most special [thing] you can have."
The morning after Gerry's overnight date with Leslie, he told The Golden Bachelor cameras that they stayed up until 2-3AM talking.

But Gerry admitted that what may or may not have happened, intimately, was "nobody's f-cking business."
Gerry did share, however, how the evening had improved and progressed his romance with Leslie.
And then after Gerry's night with Theresa in Costa Rica, he shared how he and Theresa had shared their hopes and dreams with each other, and he discovered that they understood each other on a very fundamental level.
His trepidations or doubts about his relationship with Theresa apparently disappeared in the first hour of conversation behind closed doors.
Gerry revealed that he had professed his love to Theresa in the Fantasy Suite and he meant it from the bottom of his heart.
He said he felt "elated" upon saying it and it was "pretty awesome" to have such a sweet, private moment between them.
After the Fantasy Suites, Gerry admitted he was "dying inside" over having to make his final decision between Leslie and Theresa.
"I'm in love with both of them, and, in each case, I've told them, 'I love you.' With each of them, I can see a life together," Gerry said.
"Life with Leslie would be a very exciting life. She's adventurous. She looks out for me, and I look out for her. But Theresa and I have this bond. We know what the other person is feeling. We know what they've been through."
Gerry dubbed his choice between ladies "an impossible task" at the moment, but he did believe he had made his decision.
The Golden Bachelor's finale will air as a two-hour episode on Thursday, November 30 on ABC.
