Oh Paul. [In an interview in GQ out this week](https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/paul-mccartney-said-he-and-john-lennon-masturbated-together-with-friends_us_5b97e059e4b0cf7b0043fa94), Paul reminisces about a time as teenagers, when he and John masturbated together with a group of other boys in John’s home. > [@](#): > > McCartney told Heath: “What it was was over at John’s house, and it was just a group of us. And instead of just getting roaring drunk and partying—I don’t even know if we were staying over or anything—we were all just in these chairs, and the lights were out, and somebody started masturbating, so we all did.” > > Heath clarified that it was “about five of them: McCartney, Lennon, and maybe three of Lennon’s friends,” and added that each boy shouted out names that “would offer relevant inspiration.” > > “We were just, ‘Brigitte Bardot!’ ‘Whoo!’” said McCartney. “and then everyone would thrash a bit more.” Usually, I love to hear stories of the early Beatles, but this one’s a bit too whacky for me. ---

Paul & John engaged in an activity that adolescent boys have been engaging in since forever? Is this news? John Lennon wrote a scene for the musical “Oh, Calcutta” based on this scenario, so it’s hardly a new topic. ---

I thought they were supposed to Hide Their Love Away, not spew it about all Helter Skelter. I wonder if anyone shouted “Get Back!” to warn their mate of incoming goo. ---

From another thread: > [@Today was the day in which I listened from "I Saw Her Standing There" to "Get Back"](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/today-was-the-day-in-which-i-listened-from-i-saw-her-standing-there-to-get-back/820497/28): > > I heard a quote from a Beatle biographer and I regret that I don’t have a source or and exact quote but it was something like, “Since George died you can’t get good information because Ringo doesn’t remember and Paul makes it up.” > > That’s what I remember hearing but can’t vouch for its veracity. The more I hear from Paul, the more this makes sense. And I’m going to imagine that’s what’s happening here. ---

LOL, I’ve been in both John Lennon’s and Paul McCartney’s childhood homes. Let’s just say there wasn’t a lot of room to take care of business in either of those houses. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/come-on-paul-mccartney/821272.md?page=2)
