Sex & hookups 6 moments
How Sex & hookups shows up in The Big Bang Theory S7 E4:

There, there’s chapters about potty training, and bed-wetting and masturbation. Basically, if something came out of me, she wrote about it. You know what? Do whatever you want, just don’t talk to me about it.
- Amy
I enjoyed it. When you told me I was going to be losing my virginity, I didn’t think you meant showing me Raiders of the Lost Ark for the first time.
- Leonard
Who just had sex with me at work.
- Howard
I’m copying Leonard. When he does this to Penny, they have sex and watch Monty Python.

Wow. Sex at work?
- Mrs Hofstadter
Let’s discuss why you continue to involve me in your sex life.

You were wearing her bra.

What? Another one. You know, it, it’s weird. When they’re reading your profile, does it, does it make you feel exposed? Like they see you naked?

When you were six years old, you walked in on me and your father naked. I was swatting his bottom with your brand new Ping Pong paddle.
