Shocked I think.

I had a very good friend when I was at college in the 60s. She didn’t finish the course but went off and married a quite wealthy man. For a while we lost touch, but I suppose since the 80s we have sent Christmas cards etc and have met up about 4or 5 times. So not really close. Recently she was holidaying near us and I met her for a coffee. She is showing her age a little now as she used to frequent beauty parlours. She had a new phone with her, on the table beside her and show off as she always was she had to demonstrate it to me. She pointed out all the many apps she has. In the middle of the screen was a large bright blue cross. I asked what it was. She pressed it and it led to a porn site where an ,allegedly, mother and son were having sex. I didn’t know quite what to say. She said her DH wasn’t up to much now so she watches this. I really don’t know what to think. What do other’s think. On reflection I think I feel a little sad for her.

I have a friend who has always been a show off - and takes great delight in trying to shock people too.

I tend to just yawn, whatever she says or does. I laugh at her 'funny ways' as I know she lives in her own little fantasy world. She seems to be stuck in teenager mode, despite being a grandmother.

Blossoming I’m surprised so many of you are OK with incest.

And you have found three among how many posts, 20, 30? The way you wrote about 'how many' led me to assume that at least half of us, if not more saw no problem with incest porn.

In fact it is few, and whether you think 3 is too many, and I would agree with you. Given the world we live in, it is inevitable, that a few would fail to think the subject through properly.

... I second that observation.
