What Does Jamie Morton Think of Rocky's Sex Writing?

Reading the job-interview chapter, Jamie Morton hits his father Rocky Flintstone's description of Belinda Blumenthal's body and stops. He tells James Cooper and Alice Levine that Rocky needs time with Jamie's mum, and that someone should get him a birds-and-bees book or a pop-up sex book. Jamie says he is not turned on. The sentence is his dad's erotic fantasy, and the line about Belinda's "vaginal lids" popping open leaves the three hosts stuck on the image. The note is Jamie's reaction as Rocky's son. He thinks the writing shows his dad could use a simpler guide to sex.
