Something About Eating Ass

I'm 64, a widower, in a great long-term relationship. I don't really need anything, but I still have my longings. I just wanted to share something that came out of a discussion with some of my buddies, many of whom are younger than I. We were talking about women and our relationships and such, and I asked one of the guys if he eats ass. He answered with an honest yes, and the group freaked out on him, cracking jokes and feigning disgust. I immediately spoke up saying that I love eating ass! There's just nothing like having your face buried between a nice set of ass cheeks, and devouring all the ass and pussy you can eat! By far, my favorite thing to do! I was very surprised that the majority of the group, ranging from say 40 to mid-fifties with me being the eldest, did not partake in this activity, did not like the idea, and would never consider doing it. Huh? Is that common? So I am very curious to ask readers here if ass-eating is still considered a bit too taboo for most people. Is this a kink that's considered too far over the edge? I know people do it. I still watch porn, but would this be considered as outside of normal practice in the marital bedroom? My deceased wife had a great ass, but rarely felt comfortable enough to let me bury my face in it. I would have done so daily! My new partner has no reservations about it, and I enjoy being smothered by her ass and pussy as often as I want it. I'd love to know what you people think about the subject.
