First rude thing I ever sawOur Ginger Fuhrer's young life was scarred by the discovery of an end-of-the-pier 'What The Butler Saw' machine and a jazz mag shoved behind a toilet cistern. Tell us about the first time you realised that there was more to life than sweet shops and Friday night TV

Once on a trip to London as a family to watch Millwall play...We stopped off in a newsagent in Deptford to buy a drink when my Dad pointed and remarked "Look, Pregnant Asian Special!" My brother was probably 10 and me 8.
My Mum scurried us out the shop pretty quickly with a disapproving look on her face.
Although this was the first rude thing I ever saw it didn't really sink in til I was about 17/18, well after I'd discovered more gentleman's leisure reading.
I suppose at the time I thought it was a periodical designed to facilitate the transition from woman to Mother in a still largely ethnically intolerant society.

Aged 15, or so, I watched my dad pluck a copy of Penthouse from the top shelf,at a motorway services, flick though it, then declare that it to be "a bit too gynaecological," and put it back.
