The original “pillow talk”-scene had Marla saying “I want to have your abortion”. When this was objected to by Fox 2000 Pictures President of Production Laura Ziskin, David Fincher said he would change it on the proviso that the new line couldn’t be cut. Ziskin agreed and Fincher wrote the replacement line, “I haven’t been fucked like that since grade school”. When Ziskin saw the new line, she was even more outraged and asked for the original line to be put back, but, as per their deal, Fincher refused.
Also, the actress didn’t know grade school in the US is 6-12 years old as she is from outside the US. She didn’t find out until afterwards and was very unhappy about saying it.

It’s 6 to 14 or so. First grade through eighth grade.
Kindergarten to 6th grade (12 yoa) in the majority of the US. 7th and 8th are middle school.
Middle school is also grade school.
Generally not understood as such though. I would say common vernacular is more accurate to the intended meaning than the technical truth
I guess it depends on your region because it was definitely considered grade school when/where I grew up.
why? she’s an actress ffs
She’s not American. They use different terms for things around the world.
E: ducking autocorrupt
i mean why would she care what she said in character, it’s not like it’s her as an actor who said it
