Porn Movie Theater

I was thinking the other day how many times in my life I went along with an event I didn't want to have anything to do with.  I did it to appease another person even though my own conscience or ethics screamed against it.  This was the case when Mary and I allowed our husbands to take us to a porn movie theater in Florida many, many years ago.  The memory has never failed to make me cringe.

There is no disgrace for people to like porn as long as it involves consenting adults.  I just find it icky and it makes me very uncomfortable so I don't watch it.  Everyone to their own choices.  Dennis and Wayne decided we should go to this theater (I always wondered how they knew about it) when we took a vacation in Florida.  My cringe factor set in just walking toward the building but in I went.  There was a person taking money for us to enter but a black curtain covered the doorway...I guess so that no-one could get a peek at the film without paying first.  Big cringe factor now!!

We stepped through the curtain and my eyes were assaulted by just awful stuff on the screen.  To make matters much, much worse, Mary and I were the only women in the theater!!!!  I honestly was horrified at what I'd let myself in for and getting pretty angry at my husband but I kept my mouth shut and we all settled into seats...OMG, I never thought till now about those damn seats!!!

I'm a people watcher so, instead of watching the movie, which had begun to be boring with it's repetition and poor acting,  I started watching the other patrons.  Almost every single one was there by himself...very sad when you think about it.  Then I spotted a steady line of movement along one wall and noticed the men in the line were all headed to the bathroom.  I would have burst my bladder before using any bathroom in that theater!  The bathroom lineup continued through the whole movie and I remember just wanting out of that place.

We didn't stay long, probably because of me and Mary, but I always held a little grudge against our husbands for subjecting us to that place.  Old, bad memory!
