‘The image of the flasher – a man who flashes his genitals at unsuspecting women – is fairly entrenched in our culture. He’s the guy with a long overcoat, bare legs and a furtive look in his eye. Flashers are common in jokes and sketch comedy, perhaps because the whole thing is more than a little ludicrous. The image of a bloke opening his jacket and running off just appeals to comedic sensibilities.
So when I encountered my first flasher a couple of weeks ago, I was almost disappointed he wasn’t accompanied by Benny Hill music.’
This is an excerpt from the Ms Naughty, a regular column at For The Girls ezine and erotica for women.
