A caller from Amherst, Massachusetts, says that her grandmother, born in 1869, never called a bull a "bull," but instead simply called it "the animal." This kind of euphemism, along with "gentleman cow," supposedly helped avoid the delicate topic of the bull's role in breeding. This is part of a complete episode.
