Jacksonville, FL- Doug Philips stunned friends and
coworkers Thursday with the admission that his grandmother
Hazel "Nana" Philips was still sexy.
According to friends, Philips, 23, was engaged in a conversation
about an elderly woman blocking his path and suddenly blurted
out that his grandmother "looked a hell of a lot better
than that woman."
"I asked him what he was talking about," longtime
friend Craig Elroy said."That's when he admitted he found
his grandmother super sexy. I nearly lost it."
"I did not say that," Philips argues, explaining
he was merely making an objective statement about his grandmother's
looks and meant nothing weird or perverted by it.
"I was trying to explain that she's still attractive
despite her old age," Philips said, as his friends erupted
with groans and gagging noises. "I'm not saying that
I myself find her sexy or attractive. I just think
she's still attractive to others, which is great since she's,
you know, so old."
"You just said she's attractive -- that means you
find her attractive," Elroy argued. "Hey, you're
entitled to feel the way you feel. I just think it's disgusting
and you need to see a therapist immediately."
"Look, she's still sexy to some people. Older
people. People who aren't related to her. I am not sexually
attracted to my own grandmother," Philips said. "I
just think she would make a great wife. I'd like to clarify
that she'd make a great wife to someone besides me!"
"So what you're saying is that if she weren't your actual
grandmother, you'd be sexually attracted to her and perhaps
marry her," questioned Eric Watkins, Philips' housemate
of three years.
"Yes -- I mean no. I mean if I was older and single
and needed a woman who could cook and knit her own clothes
and would make a good bridge partner, I might consider...oh
God, please don't print this."
Hazel "Nana" Philips was reached by phone at her
Orlando retirement home and says she is both "flattered
and grossed out" by her grandson's statement.
