I've stopped thinking about Kieran from the latest series of MAFS UK, and have turned my attention to Luke. What was going on with that guy? Why could he seem genuinely decent, and then genuinely creepy? How could he show self-reflection and empathy, but then be so immature and thoughtless? His fixation on sex talk, as a way to bond or whatever makes me question whether he's just grown up watching too much porn. Ew.

Think about it. He tries to turn every scene and scenario into the opening of a porn scene (stripping off at any excuse), constantly talks about sexual acts even when the other person does not want to engage, and equates a proper relationship with sex sex sex. And listen, I'm not saying sex isn't an important part of an adult relationship. But it's just one bit of it. And it's irrelevant if the other stuff (trust, respect, intimacy, support etc. etc.) isn't there.

And of course, I give my own take on his final words in that letter to Amy, about doing things to bum holes.

Whatever the reason, this is obviously someone who needs to develop a few skills before he's ready for a proper, adult relationship. Let's hope he figures things out!
