Can someone please explain to me why Rita Sue shook up the soda bottle and then put it somewhere under her dress. That's the best way I can describe it without getting my post deleted by IMDb. But seriously, I really want to know.

She was basically using it as a douche. Back then some people thought soda pop worked as a contraceptive.

You can say a great deal without your comments getting deleted.
I remember thinking she had some infection and apparently folks back then must have thought soda could cure or help it.
This. She had just said something about being "all messed up down there" related to the amount of work Stumpy was having her do.

The point it, it was BELIEVED at that time to be an effective douche and an after-the-fact contraceptive. Plenty of beliefs survived on their momentum, like applying butter to a burn. I'm sure there are medical practices we presently believe that will be debunked in times to come.
