My DH brought this clip to my attention earlier:


(about 3 minutes in)

And was shocked that, at 40 years old, I had no idea what a "glory hole" is. I thought he was BU, but everyone else in the programme had hysterics and all knew what it was, so am I just stupidly naive/ignorant?

I made it well into my 4th decade thinking that a 'fluffer' was someone with serious flatulence issues.

I was wrong.

lol I was watching that and thinking "well all my big cupboards are glory holes". Then I thought they were laughing too hard for it just to be a messy cupboard so I googled it. 😱

I've known what that is for years and I'm 21. The internet has made teenage boys even grosser and you overhear a lot when your classes are male dominated.

My Grandma used to call the cupboard under the stairs the glory hole!

Yikes! i had a mental block and thought I didn't know what a "fluffer" was either, but then I remembered an episode of New Girl that talked about it, so I am not completely ignorant!

Just wondering how long this thread will stay up before MNHQ takes it down for being too lewd! ;-)

Same here MeDented, in my family a glory hole is a cupboard under the stairs.

What's a fluffer?

I have no idea.

35, BTW.

Hope it does stay up a while as it looks like I have a lot to learn!
Can't believe you have known this for years and you are only 21, olderthanyouthink! This feels like school all over again - not knowing the terms the cool kids know!

Someone who wanks off poem star actors to keep them hard.

My MIL calls the hatch between the kitchen and dining room a glory hole. I nearly wet myself the first time she said it.

What an education this thread has been. I discovered a gay public toilet-rating site for my closest city. How nice to know that my local bus station men's toilet has one cubicle with two holes, and attracts 'all sorts, bus drivers, mechanics, chavs, lads bunking off school, older guys'.

Messy cupboards were called glory holes long before the toilet thing reared its head. So to speak.

Whattttttt?! Doesn't the sex they're having keep them hard?? Why does someone need to wank them off too?

And yes I knew what a glory hole was when I was about 15, where have you been OP?! Grin

I knew what a fluffer was but not a glory hole. MN is such an education.
