Time Traveler’s Wife Character Goes Back in Time to Give Himself Head
Time travel stories often present a lot of existential questions, but HBO’s recent adaptation of The Time Traveler’s Wife just got down to the nitty gritty — traveling back in time to give yourself a blow job.
The Time Traveler’s Wife is based on a 2003 novel by Audrey Niffenegger, and follows a man named Henry (Theo James) who travels in time unpredictably thanks to a genetic disorder, and the impact that has on his wife, Clare (Rose Leslie).
The already infamous blow job scene took place in the second episode of the show, which aired on Sunday. It features 16-year-old Henry (Brian Altemus) getting caught in the throes of passion by his father, only to reveal that the person underneath his cover is…himself.
\u201cI had no intention of watching The Time Traveler's Wife on HBO Max but then I saw this clip where the lead character goes back in time to give himself head and now I'm like.... maaaybe they have some good ideas I should check out? \u201d— Jarett Wieselman (@Jarett Wieselman) 1653347489
Fellas, is it gay if you’re just giving yourself a bj?
The episode, written by former Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat, caused quite a stir. While more conservative folks predictably clutched their pearls, the curious spent time debating both the practicality and appeal of such a situation.

\u201c@chriswill720 @JarettSays You aren\u2019t the same you that you were before when you\u2019re constantly renewing cells and shedding the old ones. On top of that matter interacts with different areas differently so unless standing in the exact same spot there wouldn\u2019t be much issue\u201d— Jarett Wieselman (@Jarett Wieselman) 1653347489
\u201c@Allison_Tolman @JarettSays May I use this as a blurb?\u201d— Jarett Wieselman (@Jarett Wieselman) 1653347489
\u201c"that's weird I wouldn't do that"\n\nAs someone who can give myself head without time traveling, I've had countless people of all walks of life inquire about it, so I can confirm that 90% of people would absolutely do this if given the opportunity \ud83d\ude02\ud83d\udc8b\u201d— Tannor Reed (@Tannor Reed) 1653422681
The Time Traveler’s Wife is only two episodes deep and is already no stranger to controversial content, although Henry figuring out how to fellate himself is admittedly a much more fun plot line than him going back in time as an adult to inform his wife’s child self that they’ll be married one day.
And it just might be pulling in more viewers, too.

Rachel Kiley is presumably a writer and definitely not a terminator. She can usually be found crying over queerbaiting in the Pitch Perfect franchise or on Twitter, if not both.
