Pics edit
I put the 2 pics in table @ bottom, don't see captions to link to anything, and they messed up the page format/readability where they were. SkierRMH 06:53, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Bette Davis supposedly blushing when she changed a baby boy's diaper and saw his genitalia - sounds like one of her tall tales. edit
In this article, it says that Bette Davis changed a baby boy's diaper and blushed at the sight of seeing male genitalia for the first time. This sounds like one of her many anecdotes that she told on TV talk shows over the years, which was not true but she said it to make the audience LAUGH. The inline citation is from one of Bette's memoirs, "Mother Goddam". I have posted an external link to the film on YouTube, and the baby changing scene is at the 55:00 time mark. There is no blushing or shock. Like Judy Garland when appearing on talk shows over the years, Bette Davis embellished and stretched the truth to make her stories more entertaining.
