Sounds interesting, Azur - a type of people watch with the people having only the minimum of clothing to hide behind.

Dark sunglasses are good in the sun they say
but they are good in other ways. When one lives by the beach, the parade is full on  and you see things pointing in every which way. And you see the cycle of life set out before you.

TAPS
LOL.  Good question, TAPS.   Unfortunately it was the top half that was naked.  If it had been the bottom half, there would have been no stopping a certain person.  As it was, she gave them all my chilled beer - God knows what she would have given them if their nudity was below the belt.

After reading Pat_B's comment, I can't think of anything else to say.  She pretty much said it all.  Enjoyed the post.  By the way, which half was naked?  Remember Porky Pig?

It won't go into the realm of Mature Audiences, that's for sure, majroj.

It makes him pathetic for the men as well.  We have one like who isn't quite as old as I am, but he struts around wearing Speedos - Enough to make you throw up your breakfast.

I think I've been using the wrong adjective, Krisles.  Instead of 'graphic' I should be using 'crude.'   Your post was exquisitely written and on second reading (the things I have to do in the cause of science), I realise how graphic it was.  But it wasn't gross.  It was sensitively graphic - if there is such a thing.  You know what I mean! 

It is surprising how many people don't read - or leave comments - in Mature Audiences.

I once had the exact same young woman at a gym I belonged to......she preened and walked around nude way longer than most, just to show off.....and she had a really old (for her), and wealthy sugar daddy who was almost pitiful in his attempts to look young and virile...but, he had her so that did it for the men, I guess....it just made him pitiful to the women.

Pat is so right....we all have our days in the sun.....and we all, if we're lucky, go onto other wonderful stages in life.  I honestly never envy younger women....I had my time of perky tits....now, it's her's.....they still serve me quite nicely, regardless of the direction they point...thank you very much!

As for graphic detail, I've written lots of both.  While I believe in real life that less is definitely more.....and do think it is often true to a degree in writing.....I have found that, for whatever reason, my graphic gets far more hits than my subtle...not comments, hits....even though few people, presumably, go to MA....maybe it's the novelty, easy availability here versus elsewhere....or, maybe it's a lack of imagination for those who click.....I don't know, just reporting the phenomena.  It's always been interesting to me....and, I write both as different kinds of expression.

I'm still laughing, Pat.  I love your 'granny curtain' description.  As for your last two sentences, I can imagine you sitting having a coffee as you make allowances for the young and virile, even if you didn't mean a word of it.  I can also see the intense lean forward over your latte as you demand a description of every muscle, seen or imagined. 

Now there's a thought, could I write a 'Mature Audience,' post without graphic detail?   Mmm?   As Ell put it so succinctly the other day - "Don't they realise that a hint of mystery can be more of a turn on than being almost naked like everybody else?"

You got my attention with half naked men
but quickly degenerated into Venus envy.  I understand what Ell and her coffee venom friends feel about those taut little ta-tas.  Those of us whose northern peaks have shifted south should pity, rather than envy the fresh, forward little thong wearers. Sooner than they know, they'll be hiding granny curtains on their upper arms, hoping never to go anywhere the Spandex undergarments won't project a firmer image. We should not pass catty remarks about flat bellies with innie belly-buttons flashing beneath short tank tops.  So, about these half-naked young guys... tell me more. Don't leave out a single pec or shoulder...
