Charlie Sheen said the escort he lost his virginity to 'responded with a level of physical generosity neither of us knew existed.'
Candy “responded with a level of physical generosity neither of us knew existed,” Charlie wrote.
“She was Ann-Margret in her prime with a Mastercard swiper. (I didn’t care that the swipe took longer than the s--.),” he continued. “It was everything I’d hoped for, it was everything I could have imagined.”
After they were done, he claimed Candy asked if he could “wake dad up for an autograph.”
“For the record, I went first,” he added.

What Made Charlie Sheen Sleep With Men?
Charlie Sheen talked about sleeping with men on 'Good Morning America.'
“I flipped the menu over,” he said in the book.
He also claimed it was “f------ liberating” to “just talk about this stuff” in the documentary.
“It's like a train didn't come through the side of the restaurant. A f------ piano didn't fall out of the sky. No one ran into the room and shot me," he shared.
Charlie began pursuing men when he started smoking crack cocaine.
"That's what started it," he told Good Morning America’s Michael Strahan in an interview on September 5. “That's where it was born, or sparked. And in whatever chunks of time that I was off the pipe, trying to navigate that, trying to come to terms with it — 'Where did that come from? Why did that happen?’ — and then just finally being like, 'So what?'”
Charlie Sheen Paid Off People to Stay Quiet About His Trysts With Men
Charlie Sheen paid off people to stay quiet about his encounters with men.
“Some of it was weird,” he added. “A lot of it was f---- fun, and life goes on.”
Through the years, he stated people threatened to go public with his trysts with men, but he paid them to remain silent.
"It did come with a tremendous amount of extortion," he admitted to Michael. "And so at the time, I was just like, 'Alright, let's just pay to keep it quiet. And just hope it just stays over there, make it go away, you know? Make it go away.'"
After being “held hostage” for years, he made the conscious decision to put everything out there.
“I just need to be free of that,” he added. “And then see how the world feels if people know that stuff. Because I've written a story all these years about, 'Oh jeez, if I ever reveal that, then this has to be how I'd be dealt with, how I'd be treated, how they'd feel.'"
