May 2014

We had a wine night a few weeks ago & there was 56 year old me, married to the same man for 27 years & listening to 30+ single women talk about men & dating.

Some comments I heard:

> "I consider a guy good in bed if he can get it up." (Lots of laughing at that one.)

> "I asked my BF if he wanted to do it in front of the computer so he could finally come." (Lots of heads nodding at that one.)

> "I asked my BF if I was supposed to be okay with him preferring porn over me, then would he mind if I found a guy that preferred me over porn?" She said her BF belligerently responded with, "What, are you breaking up with me?"

Two of the women were married like me & grateful they weren't single anymore. I came home & told my 60+ year old husband everything & we laughed cuz we still have a rollicking good time without any problems.

I know this is just anecdotal, but for people who claim porn isn't a problem, I believe they are wrong.
