Sexpert Dr. Ruth favours Fifty Shades of Grey

Known for her frank, no-nonsense views on sex and sexuality, Dr. Ruth Westheimer has recently come out in support of the best-selling mommy-porn trilogy, headed by first book Fifty Shades of Grey.

”If this guy described here–his name is Christian Grey–if he were available and if I were much, much younger and not married, let’s say, I would also go for a night with him,” says Dr. Ruth. “Not because of the sadistic element–that’s not for me–but because he has a plane, he has a helicopter, and he knows how to deal with women. He is very smooth and he knows how to make love.”

If you think you can stand to hear the 84-year-old sex therapist talk about using the series as a guide to improving intimacy, check out the video below. But don't say we didn't warn you.
