Pussy By Any Other Name

Post by Lightning Rod » February 22nd, 2008, 12:36 pm

The first time I encountered the word 'vagina' was when I was about ten years old. I was perusing my family bookshelf when I found a very intriguing volume called Sexual Behavior in the Human Female by Alfred Kinsey. I had never heard the word pronounced so I first uttered it as 'Vageena.' I knew it had something to do with a girl and Gina was a girl's name. Then I tried VAGina, with the accent on the first syllable. I even tried it with a hard G. Since there were more colorful vernacular terms for the organ in my adolescent social group, I was probably in college before I actually heard someone say the word vagina and pronounce it correctly. It's still a mystery to me how you say the word 'coitus.' I just call it fucking.

I call it fucking coitus. Slugs coil and slide when they fuck. slugs call coitus coiling fuck - hermaphrodite fucks.

Vagina... say what you will, it's a lovely word and a lovlier place. So far as I remember... Scrotum, on the other hand.

That little bag made from spare elbow skin. Scrow and Tum. Or, in glasgow slang: bawbag. A bag for the storage and safe keeping of the balls.

I call it making love.

If it's just fucking, I don't wanna do it.

Whatever you call it, it's wonderful
But the CPU is the nastiest part of your body
the other organs are just peripherals
Or, in glasgow slang: bawbag. A bag for the storage and safe keeping of the balls.
Shouldn't we call that a Global Warmer?

Coitus is funny, I like the word, I like sex too which is also funny.

I think it is "a dialogue of the skin" (JFE on litkicks a long time ago.)
I think Kerouac called it "yabyum" in the Dharma Bums

Our sex organs like something tacked on after the fact, as if the creator had an afterthought. And said whoops, we better give him one of these and a couple of those. a woman's internal and mysterious.

vagina in english sounds funny, like a tourist trying to articulate words!! :)
If I remember well, we talked about it before!.... the g sound!!!!!
here only doctors and teachers called it that way, for the rest is concha, something like sea-shell.

Concha...now thats' what I like about latins...their language is full of comparisons to nature....less sterile ...more romantic or imaginative....the use of concha in this case brings to mind images of the folded entrance to the mysterious interior, sounds of the rolling surf, and subtle scents of the sea....

I of course start thinking of penises by any other names.
The first name for it that I ever heard was ding dong.

"there's a place in france
where the women wear no pants
and the men go around
with their ding dongs hanging down."

God I thought that was funny. I couldn't look at a boy without imagining his ding dong. I still do it sometimes! Heh.

Course there's scroty and dick, prick, dong, dipstick, peenie.

I tell ye hess I always preferred putz or schmuck
it covers a lot of anatomy from the fire down below
to the ape brain
that is what is so funny about sex
the creator give us a penis and a brain but only enough blood to operate one at a time (thank you robin williams.)
but on the subject of sexaual pleasure and pain
I have heard friends speak to each other of the pain of the birth canal
but I can't imagine any pain worse than a zipper circumcision.

The scent of the dark sea with in

Did some one say tacos?

er, did someone say sweaty crusty and dank crank?

There's another version to that little ditty, that I never really understood.
Goes like this:
There's a place in France
where the women wear no pants
and the men don't care
so they eat their underwear....????
ewwwwwww......

I like the ding dongs hangin down version better....
:D

Oi, Vagina, which is Latin, (therefore, as far as I know the 'V' is pronounced W) means "sheath" as for a sword. Bloody barbarians.
Leave the letter that never begins to go find the latter that ever comes to end, written in smoke and blurred by mist and signed of solitude, sealed of night.
