    I also remember my reaction to the part in Dumb & Dumber where they're looking back at the couple's 'butts'. Of course the joke is that Lloyd is looking at the man but Harry's talking about the woman. Well I used to find the entire thing bizarre and hilarious, because why would anyone look at a person in that way. Fast forward three years and I simply could not pass a woman without checking out her ass.

    Anyone mentioned Sabrina's video for Boys yet?

    80s Ireland didn't know what hit it.

    My eldest brother speaks fondly of this pivotal moment in his development.

    I've never seen it, must youtube it to see what the fuss is about.

    Classic you show me yours and I'll show you mine when I was nine, instigated by her I might add.. saucy minx.

    Although, I remember being brought to first class by my mother and the teacher (lovely long blonde hair Miss Kelly) taking me by the hand and my mother saying: 'Oh, I think he has a crush on you' and she replying 'Well, I have a crush on him too' and then I apparently blushed as they both proceeded to tease me for burning up. I did have this feeling of wanting to be near her all the time though. Sexual? Perhaps not, but there was something for sure. Maybe I should call her.

    Oh and Penelope Pitstop too of course.

    I think the phrase "MASSIVE bazookas" is a good summing-up.

    It wasn't anything overtly sexual, but Clark Gable as Rhett Butler in "Gone With The Wind" gave me all sorts of unusual stirrings, but then Vivienne Leigh as Scarlett O' Hara, I had feelings I wouldn't understand for at least a decade later! What a woman! :pac:

    (although she was supposed to be 16 at the time, but for the time in which it was set, 16 was a grown woman, and I was only 6 at the time anyway)

    Tiffany Amber Thiessen in Saved By The Bell was the first time I guess I had that "Wow!" moment, knew there was something about her, just didn't know what it was, and then sneaking a peek over my old man's shoulder at a photo of Sabrina topless in the Sunday World, knew there was something, still couldn't piece it together...

    I didn't actually put the pieces together until I was about 13 and then I had some serious questions in retrospect about the whole deal with sex and what it was all about, that was less of a slow awakening, and more of a waking up with a start when a realisation hits you :pac:

    All male school, all male teachers. FFS looking back and seeing programmes like Grange Hill and Neighbours, school looked like such fun. Mine was not.

    Then a young female art teacher joined the staff. She was fresh out of teacher training. She was beautiful - but I could not draw to save my life, still can't.

    Anyway once a week I'd go to art and produce these awful daubings. Miss C was really nice and supportive, none of the other masters detention, shouting or whatever. She was just really encouraging:). I was still useless at art though.

    One time that's etched in my memory. Miss C came around each boys desk. She came to my efforts and bent forward over the desk to correct something. There was a buzzing in my ears and I couldn't hear a thing. She was wearing a cowl neck jumper and no bra.

    I wasn't sure if I was getting an erection or having a heart attack. Always wondered if she knew what she was doing :)

    When I was 11/12 Xena: Warrior Princess was a must watch :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,299 ✭✭✭✭The Backwards Man


    Heather Locklear in TJ Hooker or Heather Thomas from The Fall Guy.

    Always had a thing for heather. :)

    Hammer Horror films and books they are quite erotic. I used to watch a lot of them. Then I found a second hand copy of Anne Rice's book 'Exit to Eden'. It was Anne Rampling then.

    I think it's a journey then. I remember that 'feeling' on the swing or going down a hill. I think all girls can relate.



    Yeah but hammer horror big one! It's boobs and blood! Watch some of them! I was very young then. I loved Vampira etc. There is a huge undercurrent of sexuality in Hammer horror. The Vampire lovers etc. You could catch them on Channel four. I had a crush on Michael Praed, Ruger Hauer but I think that was later.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,067 ✭✭✭✭fryup


    the bedroom scenes in Dallas and Dynasty, the sight of a womans bare shoulder and my imagination running wild about what lies behind those bed sheets was enough to get me going ;)

    also this...

    Mine took place in the hour and manner that fit God's design - shortly after I figured out how to delete the browsing history in IE and shortly before all the tissues in my house started disappearing. He (that's He, not he) had deemed it fitting to send me to Catholic all-boys schools, primary and secondary, so I barely even knew what a girl was until I found the internet.

    The Irish teacher, you could hang clothes off that rack, on television it would have been the lead singer in The Bangles.

    Ricky Martin...when I was about 8 or 9. When he came out as gay myself and my gal pals were so disappointed.

    Damn those tight leather pants and Latino style. *sighs*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,859 ✭✭✭Duckjob


    For an eighties boy like me, sexy pop stars didn't come sexier than Kim Wilde. Those pouty lips...mother of god.

    The lady that probably kicked it all off though was Kate Bush. I remember seeing the video for Babooshka in the early eighties and not really understanding either what the song was about, or why there was a party happening in my pants :D
