LOL sometimes grandma's aren't too grandma-like. At one point in their lives they were young and pretty too
My mom came from a large family and I asked my grandma why did she have so many kids. Her reply "I just liked doing it with your grandfather too much... and before we knew it, there was another baby"
I used to dance in lingerie in a sex shop window when I was about 23. Grandmas loved it. When they walked by they would wave at you and give you a “you go” look.
Back in the day I had an 80something year old great aunt insist she get invited to a bachelorette party at the male strip club, back when those were big in the 80s, because "They don't have anything I haven't seen before."
She not only was the only girl out of a family of 10 she was also a widow so she'd seen plenty of twigs & berries long before she got married.
I asked her once what they did when she had her period, because she was born pre-1900 when menstrual pads weren't widely available & may have been priced outta the range of some folks, & she said "Oh there was bucket with clean rags under the sink &...." I stopped her there because I fully got it & finally understood why we said "on the rag" or called pads "rags."
I think about her often & miss her lots. RIP MS. BESSIE!!
