Readers of the books know and feel and (like me, don't lie) cull fodder for our dreams from the sex scenes in Outlander. We see two beautiful actors bringing to life the dynamic relationship between the two main characters, Jamie and Claire. It's stunning and provocative and for most of the Outlandrians (men 'and' women) it's just plain good yummy sex. I guess being an older broad I see the sex and I am aroused (who of you will lie and say 'eww I don't do that..) to the point that I have rewound and re-watched to catch every damn piece of skin the actors are showing me.
Now setting aside the soft porn aspect, what I am really deeply attracted to is that this is not only what happens in bed (or bush or field or floor...) for these two characters, it's a commitment, a promise from the deepest cellular level that each and the other is the anchor of their existences. It's a love that can only exist in the world we see and feel in Outlander. I love my husband but like most men in my generation, they have no clue about the women. They do ok but on a cellular level they struggle sometimes. Just like Sam probably does in his relationships :)
Now we come to the character of Murtagh played by Duncan Lecroix. To be honest, Sam and Cait are stunning in the sex scenes but, Duncans character Murtagh is Still Waters to me and that has always turned my head more. Still waters people!
