It starts when you sink into his arms and ends with your arms in the sink!

It starts when you sink into his arms & ends with your arms in the sink!

I bought this plate a little while ago. I walked around with it for about 20 minutes deciding if I wanted to spend a buck on it or not. I finally decided that YES, I wanted to spend a dollar on it & brought it up to the till with my other purchases (posted those awhile ago). I couldn't tell if this was an item like notepads, books, magnets that have similar says on it or truly a unique, vintage find. Since it had the vintage feel & look, went with my gut & decided it was.


Would like to know a little more about the plate if anyone knows anything. It's about the size of my palm. My Google search only stumbled upon lesbian and feminist sites, but one posting in a message board stood out from 2005. A girl said her mother had a fabric hanging on her wall with the exact same saying. She had said 30 years ago.. so that would have been in the '70s. Was the same era I thought the plate was from!

  1. I've just been googling this old saying, and ended up here. I remember this being on a little wooden plaque on my grandmother's kitchen wall when I was probably about 10 or so. I was born in 1954, so it was definitely around for a long time before that, as my aunts say they remember Nana having that plaque in the kitchen "forever". I'm still looking for a little wooden plaque. Thanks for the memory
