I was horrified by men who were up-front (as it were) about their need for sex, big grown-up men with huge sexual appetites. Men with come-to-bed eyes, men with big thighs and hairy chests and huge unshaven jaws, men who got erections six times an hour, men who smelt of sweat and salt and sex. Men who entered rooms by saying bodily, 'Here's my hard-on, the rest of me will be along in about five minutes'.
