You have to remember this was in the day when a lot of people still believed that tampons devirginized you. I guess you really don't want to hear about my grandma's day and WASHABLE, REUSABLE pads. There were a lot of older women who never used stick on pads or tampons...just wasn't what they were brought up with.

Just like older black people saying "Negro" instead. I can't believe the tangent merged into the original topic!

Again, with "romp" rather than dating, if you can't imagine dating without a "romp", you've got issues that go well beyond race. :D

Yup. That day has actually not completely ended. As a child, I was told (eta to clarify: by the school nurse) that only "fassss girls" used tampons.

Fast forward 20 years to a group of 12-15 yo girls on the swimming team and all of them used tampons (understandably so :)) and most of them were not sexually active. I was like :eek: "my, how things have changed...viva la gender revolution!!" :D

You're so busy dissecting the word "romp" while you should be worried about the much more socially significant words that started this thread.

Sensitive are we?

You forgot option number 3...telling some tmi stuff that leaves one wide open for innuendo at the teller's expense.

I got what you were saying before but didn't see the need for you to spell it out.

There's a "Riding Mr Davies" joke in there somewhere but I'm too nice a person today to let that one out.

:D

There are a lot of jokes that shall remain in the joke vault.

I can't post the James Brown youtube... "Living in Amer...."?

Actually, I fully disagree on that.

The fact that
A) the american culture has gotten to the point that there are people who expect that *any* dating relationship, whether they are in it or not, has to have involve sex
is considerably more socially significant
B) than the continued use of racially descriptive words which were the preferred description at the time that the speaker first used them.

I think the whole concept of what DrPhil was explaining to you flew over your head.

Time to eat....I think I will have some Negro Black coffee with my meal.

At the teller's expense is one thing. If this were aimed at me, I'd be fine with it. It wasn't.

Oh, but I think it was, nobody else but you was telling me how they knew someone who was dating the in home care giver.



Anywho.....

A) Huh? A smarter approach would be to consider these just jokes and acknowledge that neither you nor I really know what was going on in their bedroom. The larger point should not be lost on you unless you are desperately seeking an escape.

B) Yeah, you are desperately seeking an escape. If this is less important than something as silly as A, why the heck did you create this thread?

DrPhil wasn't indicating that I had had sex outside of marriage, she was indicating that my 84 year neighbor had.

Any reason why you don't want Colored Coffee? :mad:

Oh JEEZ!!!!!!! WEEEE KNOW!!!!!!!

Can I get a facepalm gif please?

@DrPhil I don't like mixing....hehe

"Ah laks mah coffee lak ah laks mah wemmin...strongs and blacks..."

Gone now for CPT minute.
