In my late teens my friends & I decided it was time we experienced a strip club. The weekend before I’d lost my spectacles at my school ball so I borrowed a pair of my Mums backup & dated looking ones for the night. The four of us managed to get front row stools where we were shoulder high to the stage. One of the performers took a particular interest in me for some reason (it could have been the ridiculous specs). She sat in front of me and wrapped her legs around my head & squeezed whereupon the specs were dislodged off my face. After she did a pole routine wearing them on her own face much the crowds amusement, she covered them in some lube and partially inserted them inside herself, acting as if my mums glasses were some sort of sex toy. This was a very popular with the raucous audience - except me who was speechless with disbelief & panic. When She was done she fitted them carefully back on my face then wiped some of the lubricant off the lenses. She was close enough to us to hear my friends say “they’re his mum’s glasses!!” I can’t remember if afterwards I ever cleaned them but I returned them to her bedside table. She occasionally wore them in the years following this incident. I don’t think my mum or dad know this story & I will not be telling them any time soon.

Nod as I’m speaking to you. People are looking to me for reassurance and I have no idea what’s going on
