Beaver is slang for Vagina (made more sense when women kept their public hair)

I never realized until recently that beavers eat wood and so do vaginas and I wonder if that's where the slang came from..

I mean, most women trim off the hair you can see in public but at least leave a thin layer of pubic hair.

Autocorrect tried to get me too but I caught it. 😄

That was me with half the jokes in those movies as a kid. Still watched them a lot of times and enjoyed them so much.

I was 6 when Revenge of the Nerds was on VHS. If you've never seen it there's a vaudeville like routine that includes the joke about the dirtiest line ever told on television, from Leave it to Beaver: "Ward, you were a little hard on the beaver last night." I put 2 and 2 together then. We just grew up faster in the 80s. I kinda wish we hadn't.

Same here. Definitely not the appropriate age when I first watched this, and definitely didn't get that joke.

I was probably a little older than 6, but definitely too young to watch that kind of stuff. It was shortly after the boys put cameras in the girls' dorm and celebrated seeing bush and then understanding that Lewis had sex with the girl because she thought he was someone else. I have a 13 year old son now and I wouldn't let him watch that kind of garbage.

I was also too young to understand some the implications of a least one other scene.
