THEME WEEK: That's What She Said


Greetings Bedfellows,

Today is day 3 of the highly anticipated THEME WEEK. We would like to extend a special thanks to 'Alex' who suggested today's theme of "That's what she said". To help underscore today's theme I have prepared a brief history of the commonly used phrase, see below, so viewers can better understand the phrase's root and varying uses through the ages.

1 B.C.E - 1975 C.E
During its early periods "that's what she said" was used to refer to what a person of the female gender had previously said

1975-1999

In this period "that's what she said" evolved to take a humorous connotation. The phrase was used to point out and identify sexual meanings behind everyday conversation" ex.

Person 1: I couldn't get any sleep last night
Person 2: That's what she said

In this circumstance the phrase implies that person 1's lack of sleep was due to sexual activity regardless of the fact that in actuality Person 1 had diagnosed insomnia.

1999-2009

Though the term did not change in meaning during this time it is important to note that "That's what she said" fell from popularity during this time making brief but successful comebacks at sporadic points throughout this period.

On a different note PLEASE continue sending in themes. We need as many as possible in order to continue our efforts in the highly anticipated THEME WEEK. Thanks and enjoy the video.

Ting,

Stuart from Canada

que? ok, I think this is intended to make some of us feel out of the loop...Alex, what where you thinking?

Go for "sassanachs" - a highland scottish term for "filthy englishmen" I think you could have fun with that.

Drats!!! From the sounds of it this could possibly be a best of video and for some reason I can't play this or the Languages one. Any reason why?
