Even if you were ugly, which you're not,you were a naked girl touching his cock, he wouldn't have been looking at your face. But if he had he would have been looking at a lovely face, so that wouldn't be a problem, but he still wouldn't have been looking at your face.

I had one of those activities for kids books, can't remember which series it was from, but it was basically just instructions for building a robot.It was mostly made of balsa wood, and it had a (puny) robot arm and a light sensor and stuff.
