TAKING A GANDER

TAKING A GANDER





Taking a gander, or having a gander, are phrases that mean taking or having a look. It’s a little unclear where this phrase originated from. But it probably stems from the long neck of a male goose, a gander. It seems their long necks make ganders good rubberneckers!

I found the second image above when searching for the origins of this phrase. I haven’t got a clue what they are doing but the men are definitely taking a gander. Or perhaps the women want the men to take a gander.

I don’t know the origins of this photo; I can only guess a film. Any ideas?


Do you like taking a gander?
What was the last gander you took?
Have you ever had any trouble with geese?


My last gander was today when I took a gander at someone’s baggy ice hockey shirt to see whether they had breasts or not. It was unclear whether the person sitting next to me was a man or a woman. Not that it matters at all, but it was my assigned mission this afternoon!

During the many quiet periods in the game, I would turn my head to one side to see whether there was an evidence of breasts. I failed in my mission but I did wonder whether s/he was taking a gander at my bulge to check whether I was a man or not!

I never mess with geese; they have attitude. Geese are aggressive and fearless, and they don’t take prisoners! But I do like taking a gander, especially if there’s an inviting view or a strange sight to behold.

I wonder what tomorrow will bring for a bit of gander-taking, though I prefer to call it people-watching. People-watching sounds a far more respectable pastime!

That second photo reminded me of being strip-searched. (Just without anything over our heads.) I remember the warden (or whoever) saying "spread those cheeks wide boys. I'm looking for my car keys."
I can't imaging what the female prisoners go through.

Of course taking a longer look at the photo, I have no idea wtf is happening?
Who are those people in the back?

Have you ever had any trouble with geese? When I was little I was attacked by a gander. Couldn't sit for two weeks!

Oh yes I am always taking a gander but like you I usually call it people watching!

Guess I had a good gander at the photos here!

No...I stay well away from geese....nasty creatures....but good to eat if someone else kills them.

This is rank speculation- play on words intended- but I think the photo is a take off on the cinderella theme of trying to find a foot that fits the lost shoe from the ball. Only it isn't a shoe that they've found.

Do you like taking a gander?
It's my favorite spectator sport!

What was the last gander you took?
Yesterday at the antique engine show, out in the boonies. it was in Hoopy Country, which is American for Hillbillyland. It's bacon and sausage gravy eating territory and PD and I felt positively svelte walking around the grounds. The men look like they're about to deliver a keg and the women are....Rubenesque.

Have you ever had any trouble with geese?
You have to take a firm hand with geese or they'll take advantage of you. I've seen geese chase off dogs before- they're very aggressive, but it's mostly bravado. I had a big Malemute dog, Rocky, and upon his first encounter with a goose the gander made as if to assault him. Rocky's eyes lit up and his tail started to wag- he loved a scrap. I had to tackle him to keep him from plucking that goose. He loved waterfowl.

    The photo is a scene from Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom, a French film, but I'm sure you already know that. Have you watched the film?

    Do you like taking a gander? yes, but taking a picture lasts longer

    Have you ever had any trouble with geese? I don't mind them. They are very messy and our neighborhood has installed lights in the drainage basins to drive them away, some neighborhoods have had the geese rounded up and gassed. I don't think extermination is the best way to deal with visiting Canada Geese.
Gassed!!!??? Are your neighbors Nazis? Were these geese circumcised? Gassed!!?? That's amazing! I could understand gassing Yankee fans, but geese?

Are you sure the men are looking at "women"? I don't see breasts!
My house is on the flight path of geese going out to feed and returning to the river.....three times a day!

I hope you blog about your strip-search experience!

People watching is a much better term than taking a gander!

I've not come across bacon and sausage gravy. Sounds tempting!
