A survey for the women on the 'net --- Did y'all know about shrinkage before George and Jerry explained it to Elaine? (I don't think I did.)

A question for anyone --- What was the name of that episode?

The episode was called "The Hamptons," I think named after the area they went to.

Debbie The name of the "Shrinkage"episode is "The Hamptons" (episode 85 --19993-94 season), and, personally, I think that episode was "Breathtaking!" (smirk!)

No, I must agree that I had never heard of shrinkage either. I knew about something when it was cold out...but nothing having to do with water. hmm...and they say people don't learn anything from watching TV! Oh yeah...you asked what the name of that episode was...it was called "The Hamptons." It's one of my personal faves!

I did! But then I grew up at the Y and remember making snide comments about why Speedos were so small... the guys always defending themselves with the "shrinkage" defense. *HA* We razzed the poor guys somethin' awful!

The Seinfeld "Shrinkage" episode was hilarious. Can you believe that I watched it with my 75 year old mother and she even giggled after I explained it to her.

In answer to the question if we, women, knew what happens to men after being submerged in cold water - I did. I guess you learn "the cold ahem" facts when you get married.
