Girls, we don't let little things like that bother us, do we?

And when hubby gets nekkid, I get me some. Reading be damned, I can pick back up where I was afterward.
Ok, as nice as a quicky is sometimes, it is only nice if you are both into it at the time. I think looking up and seeing my wife reading would quickly but a damper on things.

I did something similar once, I think I mentioned it in an older thread here on MR... it wasn't a quicky, but the book was good, the reader was on a stand on the small table at the bedside, so I kept reading until the end of the chapter while she kept her eyes closed.

With my current significant other, though, no: if she walks in as her mother did her, I'm suddenly unable to read. At least until my "lower brain" is satisfied.

I remember that post now, but at least you were 'into' it, too. This girl really didn't want to have sex, but figured it was the quickest way to get out the door. She told me "I could have argued for 5 minutes, or let him have his way for 2 or 3 minutes." I about died laughing.

Of course, all the guys gave HIM a hard time for not being able to 'engage her interest', but also pretty much forcing her to have sex. Yeah, we had some protective guys there.

I mean really, we love to read, but at some point we must throw down our book, and and show the love! (Okay, let me correct myself....We must gently lay down our readers so as not to harm them! This is the only instance in which a pb is better).
