He’s a former campus priest from Alabama. He was married for nearly three decades. He realized in 1997 that he was gay. He’s now a porn star.

He’s also 85.

(Let’s admit the word “star” is used very loosely here.)

“Norm” is one of the subjects in a new documentary called “OAPS On The Game: The Sex Business” airing on the UK’s Channel 5.

Norm was unconcerned about the church reaction. He explained: “I thought who might be offended and who might want to write me out of the address book, but I don’t worry because that’s their struggle. “My problem with the church is that it’s rare that sex is treated as a joyous part of spiritual life.”

You can actually see the documentary right here. Fair warning: Nothing is blurred.

The whole reason this story is picking up any steam online is because you would think a guy like Norm has no business even thinking about sex at his age. But don’t shame him for what he’s doing. He’s having the time of his life.

“My 85-year-old self is more vibrant than my 45-year-old self. It’s as though my erotic energy has taken over and inhabited me.”

Good for you, Norm. I have all sorts of questions… but who cares. You do you. Better yet, you do someone else. Have a great time. You’re hurting nobody. And unlike the predator priests some churches, at least you’re doing it consensually and without shame. May your sex life at 85 be everything you hoped it would be.
