I've been doing things my whole life that I wouldn't want my mother to see. "God is watching you" is just a threat to keep people in line.

Of course God is watching is used as a threat to keep people in line. But, that doesn't mean He isn't watching. And the idea of doing stuff you wouldn't want your mother to see comes with an implied caveat: personal but properly private stuff is obviously exempt.
My mom is gone, but I wouldn't have wanted her (or anyone else) watching me make love to Bunny, or taking a shower or countless other things that I believe God would approve.
The point is, having my mom watch me hit on a married woman, or any woman other than my wife, would have been mortifying--and rightly so. But, because I was taught that lesson early on, I have never needed to envision my mom glaring at me to know that sort of immoral behavior is wrong. It used to be called sin. Around my house, it still is.
