anyplace,

even in the bathtub.

[Giggles]

We had plenty of sex.

Well...

You know, he'd come around

and want to have sex.

Did I ever say no

to you?

Never, never.

In all the years

we're married?

Never had a headache.

I never had a headache,

I never had a backache.

I was always available.

It was me having

the headaches.

Yeah, he was--

Ha ha ha ha!

But I never

refused him sex, never.

I had a very good lover

and he taught me

all I know.

If there's more to know,

I'll never know, so...

I had been living

with an older woman

when I was young,

and she taught me

that a woman has

to be satisfied.

And--

What are you scratching?

I'm just--just

rubbing my arm.

Stop scratching.

And, uh...

she was right.

No doubt.

MAN:
Either you sleep

with each other

right away,

you know, or you don't,

and because we didn't,

I was like,

"OK, you know, what?

Is he interested

or, you know, what's

going on here?"

You know, and I think

he would say, "Oh, I'm not,

you know, I'm not ready

to rush into that."

I remember I used

to play on a gay

softball team,

and all my teammates,

you know, when they--

knowing that George was

10 years younger than

me, they would refer

to him as "chicken."

That's a term, you know,

for someone really young.

"Oh, chicken.

You eating chicken

tonight? You having

chicken tonight?"

And "Well, no, we're not

sleeping together."

"What? What are you,

crazy? You're not

having sex at all?"

I'm like, "No, I'm not."

I wouldn't necessarily--

I wouldn't explain myself,

but I just knew that,

you know, in the past

I would sleep with the

individual and they would

be gone the next day,

or I wouldn't sleep with

the individual and they

would be gone the next day.

I remember the first time

we had sex, too.

It wasn't--

I thought it was terrible.

Yeah, it wasn't good.

I thought it was

terrible.

Maybe, like,

he had hyped it up

to be something

and I wasn't even

prepared or I just--

it was like,

"Oh, OK," you know.

And I don't know what

happened after that,

if we, like,

"Oh, like, let's give it

another try."

For me, like, even though

the sex was bad,

I was like, "All right,

well, let's go on.

You know, there could be

Try Number 2, Try Number 3.

Maybe it'll get better."

I didn't just see him

as a sexual being.

I saw him more as a partner,

someone I can connect with

and, you know, it wasn't

just about sex,

you know, but I think

eventually--

I don't know what changed,

but it got better.

I mean, we're not

having sex, like,

every night of the week.

I think that would be hot,

you know--I mean, not--

I don't think I would

enjoy that, but I think

I would classify that
