    When my older sister and I hit our teenage years we had a 5-year-old sister. This resulted in a strange dichotomy, e.g. a toddler who could say "cool" and "groovy" before she could say much more than "mama" and "dada". This was the late 1960s. Mom was forever cautioning us to watch what we said around Younger Sis, as she tended to repeat things, usually at the most inopportune times.

      Prior to the creation of the PG-13 in 1984, you could get away with literal murder on a PG rating. Look at Jaws.
      Hell, just look at Ghostbusters. That's a PG movie, and they're dropping the word "shit" and talking about how Walter Peck has no dick*, and then there's the ghost blowjob that Ray gets during the montage sequence...

        For those who need to hear it: Film clip.

        I found it funny that even J2KW's footnote is a quote from the movie (32 seconds into the clip).

          I've had to teach my older sister the phrase "80's PG" when she selects films from our childhood to show to her kids, ever since she showed Sixteen Candles to her daughter and was mortified when there was a topless shower scene barely five minutes into the movie.

            I was over visiting my stepfather, his housemate and her two young boys once, and they wanted to see Ghostbusters after playing the hell out of the Wii game. Not having seen the movie around non-adults in quite awhile, I'd forgotten about that sequence.

            The other two adults in the room were more about it than the kids were (I don't think they knew what was going on, or if they did didn't let on). That was amusing. His housemate didn't comment; I think she realized that if she did there would be a lot of explaining that she didn't want to get involved in I was 10 when I saw the unedited version (I'd seen it before then, but always the 'edited for time and content' broadcasts and me being a precocious little pup I knew something had been cut and wanted to know what).

              Hell, look at Poltergeist...PG there too

              I saw the unedited version of Aliens for the first time when I was like 5 or 6, by the time I was 9 I had seen it so many times I could recite whole dialogue along with the characters
