[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The timeline to Dirty Dancing always boggled my mind. I get that Dr. Houseman could potentially set his own hours, but seriously, these people live at Kellermans all summer? Is that how Borscht Belt resorts operated back then??

That is some sweet PTO Jewish, White America received. [/quote]

Weird fixation. You believe that Jewish people, who to you are ultra white, somehow conspired to get more PTO than everyone else?

The first part of your post was about how hard it is to suspend disbelief though you know it is fiction. The second part has to both hint at shadowy Jewish conspiracy and ignore Jewish history to frame Jews as white. To what end, my friend who felt this burning need to post but won't just come out and say it?

Lighten up Francis. I knew that would set somebody off. These resorts catered to this specific demographic.

Did everyone's failure to suspend disbelief trigger you as well?[/quote]

I think the thing is that all of a certain demographic (white-collar, professional, MC/UMC) of white America received this perk, so to specifically call out one group within it is a bit odd. [/quote]

Yes, my father was a doctor in private practice around the same time period as the film, and often took off six weeks to two months in the summer. Also, I think sometimes families would stay at a summer place and the dad/husband came up on weekends.That was the plot of the Seven Year Itch.[/quote]
