B2Y, my Mom was the same way. Very prim and proper when it came to talking about "those things". I still wonder how on earth she had three children!

She called it "mother nature's gift" (ummm...no thank you) or "ladies days". My DDH used to call it "the beast within"!

My DDH called it the "OH NO" days.

When my dad gets a bit...gassy... I usually just ask him what crawled up his butt and died. He says he's much too classy to do anything so uncouth as to be gassy.

No one was worse with gas than my dog TinyMonsters. He's been gone for four years and it's sure a lot easier to breathe around here now.

I think the TV commercials that talk about solutions to some pretty personal problems have gotten a little out of control.

I'm not a prude......but if I had some of the conditions that they discuss you better believe I would already know what to do for it and where to buy a remedy.

Some of these commercials air during prime time not to mention all day. They put ratings on TV shows to warn parents. I think some of these commercials deserve a rating....and a warning!

I remember when Jack Parr (anybody else remember him?)got censored for saying "water closet" (BR) on the tonight show.

I really really wish we could go back to the gentler days, when we didn't necessarily call a spade a spade, but ev1 knew what you meant..

BTW, my Grandma called 'em wooftees..
