So, my wife asks me: "When you masturbate, do you close your eyes?"

Funny, it seems like she married me just to ask this question.

I said: "Well, of course yes! How on earth will you imagine Sharon Stone clearly while staring at the bathroom tiles."

Needless to say, she nearly broke me with a tirade of questions: How often do you do it when you were in high school? Do you do it during the morning, or at any time? Do you do it in the shower?

Those questions I fielded quite well. Until she asked this one: Have you ever done it over a person I knew? I said: Of course, I have. All the time. She was quiet.

Since then, on and off, as if to pick up from an unfinished conversation, she would ask questions that begin with: "When you masturbate...?" Hardly the kind of questions I'd like to answer, I said. Curiously, I think it brings us a bit closer, if not the Q&A helps diminish the myth of how often (and on what fodder) do teenage boys do it.

So, today was: "When you masturbate, do you think about real people, models or porn stars?" Somebody take this one. :-D
