So did Bill boink Muriel previously?



So by 1940s standards, are we supposed to understand that Bill actually boinked Muriel back in college? Like all the movies of that day, we are supposed to read much into the subtleties. Bill gave her his pin. A pin has a needle. You can get pricked with a needle. And so on.

She said he'd go home after spending the night alone in the house with her as pure as Snow White and he sighed and said that was the story of his life. So definitely no.

I'm not sure if they had sex or not, but she did tell Jim, in the bathroom when he was shaving, that she was in love with a different boy each week. I think that they had a serious relationship, as serious as they could be for the time frame..giving someone your pin back then meant going steady. But all that being said.. I think NO... LOL....or she would have married him... thats just how it was mostly back then... or her reputation may have been "sullied"....

Don't forget Jane describes the pages of her diary as being ... a-hem ... TORRID! The imagination just runs wild.
