Would teenage boys share a bed?

Post by Helen_Combe »

Ok, not grammar, but in my latest review book, two 17-year-old boys (who are rather confused over their sexuality) routinely share a bed on sleepovers. They think nothing of it and believe they are straight (though they are in fact gay as a window).
Am I showing my age again when I think that 17 year old guys would shy away from bed sharing?

Many thanks

Normal for girls, not so much for guys.

Mmm, I asked my son who's 17 and he said, "No way, I'd rather sleep on the floor".
So, right out of the horse's mouth!

That’s what I thought. I’m glad it’s not just my age.

The gay factor changes everything. Straight boys, never no way. But confused boys? You bet. What better excuse to find out about their sexuality.
