A light supper with boyfriend number 2

A few weeks ago I went to the theatre with boyfriend number 2. We were going to meet a friend of his afterwards, but it turned out that the show was quite long so in the end it was just me and boyfriend number 2 who went for a snack supper afterwards.

"How about this place?" I say to boyfriend number 2 after we've gotten sufficiently far away from the crowds emptying from the theatre. It's a Thai restaurant, so knowing that boyfriend number 2 is keen on spicy food, it seems like a good bet. We go inside and a cute Thai waiter shows us to a table.

"So what did you think of the show?" asks boyfriend number 2, once we're settled.

"I was captivated," I say honestly, "I didn't look at my watch once. And the leading actor was GORGEOUS wasn't he?"

I smile knowingly, and start thinking that it might be quite nice to examine the contents of the leading actor's undershorts! Somehow boyfriend number 2 can tell what I'm thinking.

"What is it about you English guys?" asks boyfriend number 2, "Why is sex so 'taboo'? You can't talk about it in a matter-of-fact way. It's not just your attitude GB, all the English guys I've been close to are like that!"

"Really?" I say surprised, "so do you think we're slightly warped somehow?"

"Well yes! Think about a penis for example, it's just a penis, but to you English ..."

"Well, I guess so," I say.

But inside I start thinking, "No it's not, it's not JUST a penis, it's a hugely interesting piece of anatomical equipment, full of exciting possibilities and naughtiness!!"

I try to stop myself smiling, as I begin to realise that perhaps boyfriend number 2 is right.

"What are you smiling about?" asks boyfriend number 2 with a slight giggle.

"Errr, oh I dunno, I was just thinking about what you just said."

"Or masturbation, another example," says boyfriend number 2 smiling too, "It's just masturbation, isn't it, so what?"

And again, a big grin slowly creeps across my face as I start thinking, "Masturbation, masturbation :-), guys doing it to themselves, doing it to each other ... :-))".

I catch boyfriend number 2's eye and he can tell what's going on inside my head.

"Actually," says boyfriend number 2 laughing now, "I guess I'm quite fond of this English attitude, it's very endearing!"
