Moaningful Confessions: A Helping Hand

Moaningful Confessions: A Helping Hand

I, like many people, am a massive fan of men moaning during sex but unfortunately it has been a while since I have heard this live and in person. 

A few months ago, I was scrolling through TikTok and an audio of Pedro Pascal moaning came up on my fyp (thank you algorithm). I hadn’t wanked off in a while so I saw this as a sign to lock my bedroom door, chuck my earphones in, and get to it. I finished quite quickly and then decided to have a wee scroll through the comments. I began to get nervous when I saw comments like, “Out of context this is hot, but if you’ve seen the bit of the film it comes from…” 

After a quick internet search, I discovered that the audio I had just wanked (and came) to was from the 2018 science-fiction film Prospect. The reason Pedro was groaning and whimpering so loud was because, in this section of the film, he was getting his arm amputated without anaesthetic. On the second watch (this time without my hand down my pants) I could literally hear the buzz of the chainsaw in the background. I had orgasmed, but at what cost? (Well, an arm but fortunately not a leg).

Anyway, I have come to terms with the fact that I inadvertently wanked to a limb being severed, and life goes on. Sorry Pedro
