A typical married couple were lying in bed one night. The
wife had curled up ready to go to sleep and the husband put
his bedlamp on to read a book.

As he was reading, he paused and reached over to his wife
and started fondling her. He did this only for a very short
while, then he would stop and resume reading his book.

The wife gradually became aroused with this, and thought
that her husband was seeking some response as encouragement
before going any further.

She got up and started stripping in front of him. The
husband was confused and asked, “What are you doing taking
your clothes off?” The wife replied, “You were playing with
me. I thought it was foreplay to stimulate making love with
you tonight.

The husband said, ”No, not at all.“ The wife then asked,”
Well, what the hell were you doing then?“

”I was just wetting my fingers so I could turn the pages in
my book!"
