Benedict Cumberbatch Describes What Sex with Sherlock Holmes Would Be Like
by Andy NeuenschwanderNo need to look up any erotic "Sherlock" fanfiction. Benedict Cumberbatch already has some for you.
The "Sherlock" star was asked an interesting question by Elle U.K. about his titular character: What would it be like for a woman to have sex with Sherlock Holmes?
His answer was...descriptive.
First, the preparation. Cumberbatch notes that, while Sherlock remains asexual so as not to distract himself from his work, he would do his due diligence if he did need to seduce anyone for professional reasons.
That includes taking performance-enhancing vitamins and cutting back on smoking, so he could "make sure I could perform. On the technique side, he would do some research. "I would probably watch a lot of porn," he says.
When it came down to the actual "act," as it were...that's where Cumberbatch got very descriptive.
"I would be devastating," he said. "I'd know exactly how to please a woman, I'd know exactly where to put my fingers, where to put my tongue, where to put my—his I should say—his fingers, his tongue. Think about violinists, think about what they can do with their fingers."
It's as if it was pulled straight from a fanfic. A very dirty fanfic.
