And how would you feel knowing your grandmother was watching you kiss three girls Or guys watching a guyfriend kiss girls

Didn't I hear that Brad had to call his grandmother about all this?!? LOL

I bet his guy friends may give him crap about any emotional stuff but definitely give him props for physical stuff. His brothers are probably bragging about teaching him everything he knows. Now if he had a sister, that would be a different story. I know I am very protective of my brothers and would feel very uncomfortable watching them making out with girls (honestly in real life nevermind on tv).

He did say that he had to explain that things aren't always as they seem, particularly on the Fantasy Suite date, to his grandmother.

Grandma: "He'd better call me quick because he wasn't raised that way. What a shame to behave like that, in front of *everyone*!"

Grandma: " Why I declare! I'm goin' have a word with that young'un. He was raised better than that...shillyshallying around on that bed in front of God and everyone. Why, I didn't even kiss his Grandpa until we were engaged. What's this world comin' to...these young gals paradin' round half naked. Where's her mama? What's she think of all this carrying on....."

OK, watched it with no sound and I've changed my mind...DeAnna. Whether she feels the same way about him, I don't know. But he seems pretty smitten with her.

It's been argued that she initiates their kiss after her "I'm falling in love w/you" comment -- but watching it again, it's clear he pulls her in -- he is holding her hand under the table and you can see him initiate that.

He has done the hand tugging thing before too, and it just melts me. It really does help to watch w/out the sound, then it forces you to pay attention to what is really going on with each person.

He definitely pulled her in along with her chair LOL You can hear it if you turn the sound back on.

It often helps me to watch without the sound as well but that is more because I usually start cringing at the conversation within the 1st five minutes and literally can't listen to the things being said. Sometimes I have to cover my eyes as well...

I am assuming that if he and his parents lived in Georgia until he was 12, then Grandma may be from the Deep South as well. I am from Alabama, and my grandma was from Mississippi. That dialogue sounded just like my grandma, only she might have had a few more things to say on top of it. Where I come from, it doesn't matter it you're grown. You're grandma is still you're grandma, and in some ways you are still more accountable to her than you are to your mother as far as not wanting to disappoint her. I understood that remark quite well.

Considering the remark that he made about his grandma and the NO FRICKI FRICKI, I think he felt awkward in what he thought might have been a really suggestive, intimate position. Although he has had zero trouble kissing any of them under any other circumstances, I think he would have reacted in the same way on the bed with any of them as he did with Jenni. However, I do wonder if there is a reason why we saw that particular behavior edited in with Jenni as opposed to the others for a particular reason as it did make him look reluctant.

I said the same thing about the bed. The bed is way to intimate. Even though Jenni and Brad kissed on the hammock, it does not have the same stigma as the bed.
