What reaction did you make after your husband said that, heatherbeehoney? I personally think you just said that when he did not expect it, so he was extremely surprised. Did you use text message to hint sexual things in the past? Is this the first time?
From what I see on the forums here, hear from my friends and my own experiences, people sometimes act impulsively or say things in an awkward way very suddenly. Then the other partner will think it is bad or out of context. It is better to give some time so his actions settle in his mind and he will have a clearer picture of what he did and what it looked like to you. Just kindly let him know what you think and feel when he said that.
If he was able to say such a thing to you in a civil manner (even though what he said is a bit awkward with the situation you said), I think he can also understand what you feel and help both of you come to some guideline or compromise. This seems to be more about misunderstanding. You did not know he did not like it but it is not your fault. He was good to tell you that even though it was awkward.
As for people who say using a cell phone is easy, yes, maybe for younger people who can learn electronic equipment quickly. But it is difficult for older people and just people in general who do not have this "intuitive logic" for manipulating them. I know this because my father had to teach my grandparents very long to use the cell phone and to send e-mail to his overseas grandchildren like me.
