boys & sex

was at the cinema with mum today and it was surprisingly crowded, considering it was a thursday afternoon. or perhaps school holidays had started for some? well, whatever the case, i noticed there was a group of boys in front of us. there was some 7-8 of them in the group and they looked like secondary school kids (14? 15 years old?) well... it was interesting to see them squirm and go into these little hush hush whisper mode amongst themselves when scenes that suggest / depict some raunchy sex, precursor to some raunchy sex were shown (e.g. shower scene, naked scene)... and it was also very interesting to see them squirm and giggle during the rather homo-suggestive scene between bond and silva...

such a response really reminded me of myself during those teenage years (aeons ago!!!) where i was curious and excited, yet awkward when it comes to anything sexual... and scenes such as the tenting of a blanket caused by an aroused person (cannot recall the name) (endless love, 1981) or (the back view) of chris atkins masturbating (blue lagoon, 1980) would send us into frantic squeals and months of fantasies in the privacy of the house toilets! haha... and by today's standards, these would hardly draw any attention...

haha!
