Cod claims they do

I can't believe it

That would be akin to being a prozzer

Good grief.

The interesting thing is that even though it was for a 'genuine' documentary the woman was still making that freaky porno curled-lip but pouty growly face.

IorekByrnison · 24/04/2008 23:26

hurrah for that picture.

IorekByrnison · 24/04/2008 23:28

What in god's name are you watching Onebat? I didn't see any of that on Newsnight. Although there was some naked opera.

skyatnight · 24/04/2008 23:33

Cola-cubes - yes I probably did sound very judgemental, old-testament, Rev. Ian Paisley in his former incarnation. But if I was ever looking for a definition of 'vulgar', that 'laydee', boasting about her 'ring for a ring' over the hors d'oeuvres, with her husband smirking on in the background, would probably be it!

Taking the mick and silly offers is fine and not the same thing at all.

onebatmother · 24/04/2008 23:33

It's on C5, it's called A Girl's Guide to 21st Century Sex, which apparently involves lots of porn. Strange that.

Naked opera otoh seems entirely reasonable.

I had it on in the b/g btw with sound turned down, hence my sudden alarum.

WallOfSilence · 24/04/2008 23:40

I give dh a blow job this morning.

This afternoon my new car was delivered

IorekByrnison · 24/04/2008 23:47

That programme sounds neither edifying nor titillating. And a documentary about porn should at least be one of those things.

How did she get a camera up there? She must be very accommodating. Mind you, since motherhood I could probably accommodate a box brownie.

onebatmother · 24/04/2008 23:56

Iorek. And I a bellows-camera thingy.

I don't think it was about porn though, that's my point. I think it was supposed to be genuwine liberated sex ed for liberated 21st century women.

But every segment was intercut with porn, and in the the fannycam segment with the couple having real sex (which wasn't intended to be arousing I don't think,) the poor girl still couldn't not 'perform'. Makes me wonder how many of us there are out there who have sex without 'watching' ourselves iyswim.

Iorek/OBM - I've got 4 children which probably means I could accommodate a 70mm Hasselblad, a photographer, his assistant and a Durst enlarger so they can put the dark space to good use. Though I would hope they would be sufficiently polite comment on how tight a space there was between the develop, stop and fix baths.

Oblomov · 25/04/2008 09:08

Everyone seesm shocked that this goes on. But it isn't that odd.
I am with Notjustmum and Dr Northerner, in our house bj's in conversation,are just a giggle.
But are you all forgetting that lots of mums on mumsnet don't have control of finances ? Some do ask to buy stuff. Some dads give SAHM mums a small amount of money each week. Some working mums transfer some of their wages into a joint account for the mortgage. And some have to ask if they want to buy.... a jumper ?
I buy what I want, when I want. And dh does too. But you all seem very liberated and seem to think this is the norm.
On some of the 'do you have a joint account' threads, you will see that this is not the norm.

CountessDracula · 25/04/2008 09:31

I told dh about this last night and said "why would women demean themselves like that?"

He said "why would men?"

I know women who have secret bank accounts into which they squirrel money so as to poss. do a runner.

Swedes · 25/04/2008 09:38

I've got 4 children

Oblomov · 25/04/2008 10:21

moondog, wasn't that the recommendation, on Morningpaper's Cheating thread

onebatmother · 25/04/2008 11:04

huge, HUGE Swedes. I could, in addition, offer storage facilities for a bulk purchase of fixer and wash.

Are you a photographer manqué, I wonder?

(Oh lordie me, how I have longed to slip that word onto MN)

Countess Dracula, bloomin' precisely. It's a question that has revolved in my head since I first discovered what prostitution was. Does the power thing outweigh the humiliation thing, I wonder.

onebatmother · 25/04/2008 11:13

And Gosh, look at Swedes' got! I've a sudden nostalgia for Julian, Dick, Anne, George and Timmy the Dog.

onebatmother · 25/04/2008 11:26

And actually Swedes, wrt to the photographer, I should check whether you were thinking of a stunted David Bailey or a gangly Martin Parr. It could make all the difference.

nervousal · 25/04/2008 11:46

CD good point. I think its all a bit of a laugh and whatever folk want to get up to is their own business. Howver - what would be sad would be dhs/dps who had to pay for sex from their partners any time they wanted it...

Swedes · 25/04/2008 12:42

Onebat - Manque is to die for, especially if you know how to find an acute accent. I feel all inferior now about my umlautless Durst enlarger.

I'm thinking Sam Taylor-Wood might be the most appropriate photographer to accommodate. She would doubtless do something interesting with an IUD/coil and she's quite small. And being a woman she is unlikely to mention the echo.

skyatnight · 25/04/2008 12:53

Get you lot with your cavernous 'grottos'. Or should that be 'grottoes' (any pedants about)?

With all this talk of photography, what springs to mind is that Almodovar film, 'talk to her', with the B&W bit where the tiny man crawls up into the woman's fanjo.

bananaknickers · 25/04/2008 13:01

I have seen them on here too.

What about the one where a mumsnetter wouldn't iron her husbands shirts unless he went down on her fango on Mondays and Wednesdays

Am off to look now

onebatmother · 25/04/2008 13:06

Yes, definitely STW. She is very petite and I suspect she is fragrant, as an added bonus. Samfresh.

I didn't see that one, Skyatnight, but the thought is making me itch.

onebatmother · 25/04/2008 13:08

and lol at echo. I am now thinking a whole team of brave potholers. The relentless dripping sound. The echo. The stalactites..

skyatnight · 25/04/2008 13:35

'Relentless dripping.' Stalactites. Potholers? You are taking the metaphor too far OBM, nay, subverting it. It is all becoming very Freudian. Revert to the afore-mentioned sporting analogies.

onebatmother · 25/04/2008 13:40

I see your Freud and I raise you a vagina dentata, skyatnight.
