Great-Grandma was fascinated by baby clothing like stockings of all things that my older brothers wore (the kind of thick ribbed cotton type). She said her children only wore "a little shirt" (meaning a type of chemise or under-dress) and could not fathom that babies and toddlers could wear clothing like adults did. It wasn't practical in her eyes. She also got married in her black Sunday-dress like most women and the idea of getting a special dress for it seemed decadent to her. Her husband still carried water from a well despite having no legs.

There was a shower in the shed, but by instantaneous water heater and because electricity was too expensive for them, the maximum shower was 5 minutes.

The bathrooms is kinda the same as in Mexico the bathroom isnt connected to the house and you have to walk to go to it and for showers you have to heat a huge pot of water if u dont like showering with cold water

[@victorhopper6774]

huge difference in climate

Its unbelivable with those toilets. Yes, in my country there were also such toilets outside, but it were made from wood, with proper doors, were build in villages not in cities and it was all before II WW or at least it was 50s-60s in poor areas. During the 60-70s most of our country got electricity, water system and sewage system.

The courageous women in these Dimple videos should see all facets of our country’s treatment of its veterans. There is a disgraceful number of homeless veterans in the United States. My small, picturesque city in the mountains of the US Southwest has one of the better Veteran’s Hospitals in the troubled VA system. The area also has a much more temperate, livable summer climate than the lower desert cities of the Southwest. Because of this, there are quite a number homeless veterans who, in order to be near this hospital, camp out in the national forest that borders the city. In addition to county and state run programs, some of the kinder local churches and other charities have homeless outreach programs that serve these veterans as well as other homeless individuals in the area.

What is "galtan" (7:14)? I can't find it anywhere. I suspect it's lignite.

I often find myself wishing I was blessed enough to be a multi-billionaire because I would take 99% of it and do some real good in this world....I would like nothing more than to be able to change as many lives as I possibly could and spread love and generosity around the world....🌎

They took the doors for firewood. The decision to shit in privacy or be warm should not be something forced on anyone.

[@salvadorjimenez2872]

You seem to be a wonderful person. I really despise these things that you & your people suffer. No one except the so-called "leaders" deserve to suffer in those conditions. I'm very happy for you, or anyone who can escape the opression.

[@DBrentWalton]

I wish more people could see the evils lurking behind communist and socialist regimes. Videos like this should be played in US schools to teach our children how good we have it in the USA and how they need to protect our Constitutional rights at all costs. Probably the most demonstrative portion of the video is where she's talking about the lighting and electricity. The comment that everyone pays the same amount, no matter how much they use, coupled with the comment about the government leaders being able to use as much as they want, shows how "distribution of wealth" fails... drastically. I really hope in my lifetime to see the fall of Communist China and North Korean governments. Those people deserve to be freed from this form of oppression.

[@mr.e1944]

She should talk to my wife. My wife doesn’t cook or clean. She is good at ordering stuff on the internet though!

[@HuSanNiang]

[@mr.e1944]

@@HuSanNiang ??! I do all the cooking, not sure what you are asking. That is what I said!

[@snoodlegirl1794]

Apartments are nicer than the little hut/ cabin

[@robertsilva8097]

The lady in this video she is very nice what is a rank is it Major General or is she an Admiral in the Navy has she ever seen the movie Star Trek with the original cast with William Shatner

[@conniead5206]

Would be nice if you used a picture that actually represents the average American kitchen. The one in the picture has a massively bigger kitchen area than the majority of homes and apartments. This, at best, represents the newer way they build to put a bigger looking home on a smaller lot. Kitchen, living room, and a small bathroom on the first floor and all the bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs. Master bedroom and bath usually fairly big and the other bedrooms usually small. If someone broke a leg they end up on the couch. If your kids are sick in bed you get to traipse up and down the stairs to tend to their needs. Lug the laundry up and down the stairs.

[@lindacrowley1405]

Sooo.what does she think of a revolution in North Korea..any chance.
