In recent conversation with friends of my age, one of them mentioned how much better her sex life could have been if she were able to actually talk about sex with the men she was having it with. Of course, an embarrassed silence followed by speedy subject change happened.

Americans, despite having a much more puritanical & neurotic attitude towards sex much more common among them seem to talk about it much more openly. Europeans tend to be much less neurotic but equally open. It's just us & the Irish who find frankness appalling. Antipodeans?

And yet we have a whole comedy culture built around toilet humour, double entendres and farces which always seem to include a hilarious incident involving bloomers falling down. Very strange indeed.

Helen! Shush now. I don't know, young people nowadays, harumph!

Did you just
#manshush her, Richard?

No, I person-shushed her. And I knew it was futile. Shushing Helen is like shushing me. It simply doesn't work.

Could be worse, you could be American where we constantly talk about sex but tell people not to have any.

Irish people are like this as well, I want to say we're worse, but I don't know Britain enough to be able to say that for sure.

“Fine having sex” as in “amenable to”, not “good at”.

You guys also spell “realize” as “realise”.

It's a long legacy of the influence of the church, especially the hair-shirted puritanical variety. The "Wee Free" in Scotland is a prime example.
