I have a son who's now 6 months old.

As babies are wont to do, they pee and pooh all over the place. Now, my wife has difficulty saying that the 'rude bits' are dirty or needs cleaning. (not that I volunteer to clean).   I find that really odd actualy when my mom has no issues in calling it what it is while a more educated person acts so blooming victorian.

Now, the shrink in me says, girls in India are not taught this stuff(as if I were) but this refusal to say the baby's organ/######(in the local language) needs to be wiped clean/wrapped et al. is quite irritating.  As it is, the bawling is making me short tempered but just saying "that", "that" is not clean makes me want to explode.

I swear, the next time I see a deeply religious person, I'm just going to moon him. completely out of the blue and out of context.

gnnahh!
