No Sex Please Were British
It is often said that when it comes to sex and the British there is a strange undercover relationship between the two that would suggest we are shy about our sexual habits and find humour in everything of a sexual nature. Is this actually true? Do people in modern day Britain still have these repressive thoughts or have things changed?
The British and flashing in public, Catholic priests, obsession with farting, perverts and judges with whips all lead to a very mixed bag of zany British humour that some outsiders could find worrying.
Once extremely popular and thankfully on the wane, numerous British seaside resorts used to sell funny postcards with quite often ridiculous jokes that hinted on or directly illustrated strange sexual behaviour or repressed sexual feelings that could only be openly expressed on postcards.
Ask 10 British men to walk into a chemist and ask the pretty girl at the counter for a packet of condoms. Blushes all round in most cases. Why is this? Why do we still feel it necessary to tie the groom naked to a lampost on the eve of his wedding?
