lolol

Most men have a special name for their "Bits", usually Dick, Peter, John Thomas etc...............wondering if a French man would name his Pierre, or if a Spanish man would name his Manuel.

I have never ever felt the need to "name" mine.


BUT.......... if I posted the correct names here the RR'r would be so SHOCKED!


I'd be whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooshed!

I so agree with you, maggie!

My daughter was about 3 when she went to visit the neighbour behind, who had a daughter about 6 months older than mine, and 2 male dogs

Neighbour phoned me in quite the state ..........

"Did I know that my daughter knew the name for the dogs' 'bit'? She'd (big gasp) called it a (whispered very softly) penis."

Answer, yes I did .........

...... we'd used the correct names since she could understand them, and were not shamed into letting her only see us fully clothed.

I've never really got on with my eldest daughter's ex's mother - definitely not after she questioned whether our 3 year old grandson should be pushing a pushchair around with a teddy in it!! (Will it turn him gay etc). As my daughter pointed out - he was copying his dad!! Goodness knows what she would say about both boys playing with my doll's houses!!
Anyhow, 'pushchair boy' is now 8, and a bit of a science 'geek', but his much more outgoing younger brother (aged 5) really 'comes out' with the 'unmentionables'.
He talks about a 'twinkie', I tell him it's a penis - purely because his nanny(ex's mum) can't abide the reality!! :-D
My younger daughter was here at Christmas and openly breast fed her daughter. Youngest grandson said nothing - took it as normal.
Yet, in the past has referred to ladies bits as 't*tties'. I told him they were 'breasts', and informed him that overweight men could get them - but they didn't work, (ie to feed babies) unlike ladies' ones :-D :-D :-D

BTW - I get on very well with my younger daughters in-laws :-D :-D :-D

Should also point out that I never hidden real names of 'bits' from my children, and, as my eldest daughter works in maternity, all her children know the real names of 'bits' - my 13 year old grand daughter has even informed me of lady bits I didn't know the medical name of :-S
I can't abide the slightly sleazy 'niceness' of giving 'bits' cute names.

Our grandchildren's other grandparents dropped in to collect the children's gifts which were too large to fit into their parents car.

I had just cooked the most dreadful chickpea curry. I did follow a recipe but the red chilli was probably too large. Instead of cutting my losses I kept adding more cartons of chickpeas, passata (I thought that might help) and spinach. I ended up with a huge vat of inedible curry.

As they opened the door the house would have reeked of curry, as did my clothes also.

I'm sure that I said I intended to slop in down the loo and as they departed I exclaimed that I would have trouble getting it round the U-bend! Their shocked grandmother replied, "too much information"!

"Oh, I didn't intend eating it", said I !

I'm always saying something inappropriate.. :-0 :-0 :-0
