It’s just a healthy expression of female sexuality, which by the way, you will never understand!” There’s nothing wrong with a woman enjoying a little…erotica. Go Rachel! “Hey-hey, y’know what? I don’t care! I’m not ashamed of my book. Rachel, though, is wholly unapologetic and refuses to feel embaressed. Except Joey, being Joey, actually dresses up as a goal keeper.

After deciding to take a nap in Rachel’s room, Joey finds an erotic novel under the pillow. This is perhaps one of my favourite episodes.
