The old couple

[Replies: 4]
Sorry, I just have to ask this...

Am I the only one who feels like puking everytime the old couple has sex? Don't get me wrong, I'm not being immature here, I really try to look at it without prejudice. In fact, I think it's really a beautiful thing, still enjoying sex on that age. But at the same time...I find it repulsive and it disgusts me everytime I look at it. So am I the only one or do any of you recognize this?

I think it's more your reaction to not having ever seen anything like this before on TV. For years, we have seen violence, sex, murder, with very defined character types. For the sex scenes, the characters have always been young, mostly unmarried, and now we are seeing for the first time ever a mature couple in a young character's role: it's different and makes you uncomfortable. As much as I want to be that couple when I'm older, I also feel strange with the image.

It does not make me sick but I would rather not see it. I just try not to watch, make a kitchen or bathroom run. I guess it is like thinking about your parents having sex lol.

Well maybe.
Why does it make you want to puke. Do you think when you get old you will not want sex????
You know Jane Alexander is a beautiful woman and one of the great actors of her time. Sooo!!!!!!!!!!! Just try and figure your emotions out is it disgust is it beautiful thing is it
