Longer ago than I care to think. But, yes, I do miss working in the darkroom for reasons in addition to that particular recollection. When I moved to Florida 13 years ago I gave away my Beseler M45 enlarger and I wish I hadn’t. Though, in truth, I doubt I’d still be using it much.
I was wondering whether your attitudes about male-female "playing" have changed. I am now married, with a daughter the age I was when we got married and a daughter the age my wife was when we got married. Each has her own apartment and is responsible for her own behavior, but I think like a father now, so I don't see your story as demonstrating a "benefit" of a darkroom.
