When you’re home with kids all day, thoughts go through your head. Some of those are, um, impure thoughts. And sometimes those thoughts settle on some fairly odd choices.
Which is why I found this article from the Croydon Guardian over in England to be screamingly funny. Weekend radio host and mother of two Natasha Desborough has published her own web-only off-the-wall parenting guide, and while there are some funny things in there, the most brilliant part was her discussion of sexual fantasies about different children’s TV characters. Come on, Holy Mary, don't judge. We’ve all had them.
Her top guy? Sportacus, from LazyTown. Now I hate Lazy Town and find Sportacus annoying for a myriad of reasons, not least his weird little pointy mustache and inability to make a damn sandwich without executing more triple backflips than the US Gymnastics Team. Howevs, one could do worse – there are some pretty hot muscles under that costume.
In both the article and Desborough’s site, moms weighed in on their fantasy objects on CBeebies, which appears to be their version of Noggin. Some of them were hilarious (that guy over to the right there? Seriously?) but it got me thinking: Who would you not mind a little action with, should the opportunity arise? And I’ll start: Either Steve or Joe from Blue’s Clues, any Imagination Mover except the stonery-looking one, and Handy Manny’s voice is kinda sexy.
Okay, now that I have thoroughly embarrassed myself, how about you?
