Sometimes I honestly think I am living in the dark ages. Yesterday evening was a great reminder of this: I was having dinner with some friends who I hadn’t seen for ages, and I don’t know if it was more that I had changed or that they had stayed the same, but either way – they really needed educating.
The debate had got onto couples watching porn. At first I’d waded in there with a fairly bold comment about couples watching it a lot and it being a good thing, but then, a few minutes later, I realized that my comment had gone unheard. By then my friends girlfriend was laughing at the idea of couples watching porn, as if the idea were so hideous that it amounted to the same as watching a tramp go from living on a street corner to sell gold overnight.
My girlfriend didn’t want me to bring it up again – the old hand-on-the-knee-trick has never been more crystal-clear in its meaning – but I did. I couldn’t help it. I stood up and started to lay it all out there: how I knew couples who watched a lot of porn, and how I knew it could be of real help in the bedroom department.
Then I was looking at the girl, Lisa, and she was crying. Not even hiding it. The full-blown kind which seems to have been going on forever. So I sat down.
I thought I was going to get a serious bollocking and no-sex-rule-for-three-weeks rule laid on me, but actually Lisa started to admit something. While my friend’s jaw hung loose and slack, she admitted that she badly wanted to watch some porn together. I thought there was about to be a fight, but then they were hugging, promises were being made and that was that.
I’m sure we’ll hear how it turns out, and remember, there’s nothing bad about it. In fact, it’s completely natural human behaviour.
