A typical married couple was lying in bed one night. The wife had curled up ready to go to sleep and the husband put his bed lamp on to read a book.

As he was reading, he paused and reached over to his wife and started fondling her "kitty". He did this only for a very short while. Then he would stop, and resume reading his book.

The wife gradually became aroused with this. Thinking that her husband was seeking some response as encouragement, before going any further, she got up and started stripping in front of him.

The husband confused, asked, "What are you doing taking all your clothes off?"

The wife replied, "You were playing with my "kitty", I thought it was for*play to stimulate making love with you tonight. The husband said, "No, not at all."

Then the wife asked, "Well what the hell were you doing then?"

To which the husband replied, "I was wetting my fingers so I could turn the pages in the book."
