Let alone all the lousy-lay comics who think the vulva [labia] is the vagina. Besides, everyone knows the universal euphemism for vagina is Me, and the clitoris is There. Come inside Me. Touch Me, There. OH! THereThereTHereTHere. PS Forgot my favourite funny 'cuz they're true euphemisms: for labia: hot lips. And vagina: sugarwalls.

quote: ORIGINAL: DomMeinCT quote: ORIGINAL: JonnieBoy Yup you guys sure have cornered the market in euphemistic names for genitals that are rather more embarrasing than the real thing. So much so that now I can't even tell when I go shopping if the assistants aren't asking me to feel them up as opposed to upselling at me. Pirate And yet, you can imagine my English friend's surprise when I handed her a bag to put around her waist for our hike and told her it was a "fanny pack". [:D] I don't need to, I remember the first time I heard the term and never looked at a bum bag again without grinning. Isn't language and culture great ? ! (it still tickles me on the reaction of bystanders the several times I asked Bear if he had a spare fag I could pinch) Pirate

Well since vagina is, to my knowlege a silly Roman word, I tend to use the (slightly more objected to in the USA) Anglo Saxon word ... Cunt ... since it means ... cunt, as opposed to the Roman idea that seems to mean something where you put something when it's not in use. I fairly much only use words like pussy and fanny where a cheeky/rude double meaning might come into play or allow humour. I'm certain that there's a lot of incredibly silly words but I'm seeing vagina (well, not right at this moment I'm not) ... as a medical use term, so much like I don't tend to call my fingers/hands metacarpals/carpals very often etc etc Mind you sometimes there are some really amusing uses of the word Cunt : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A8lm3CHe4k (Specific cunt related world record bit at 3 mins inot clip) (Full clip NOT recommended for those "pussies" with a weak disposition [sm=evil.gif] ... you were warned) And (just for the cosmopolitan linguists here) whilst it's been posted before on some other topic : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8sxk4xNnxw Pirate

From the article: "An executive for Kimberly-Clark, the owner of Kotex, notes that US TV networks have no such compunction about references to "erectile dysfunction" in prime-time ads for Viagra and Ciallis". While this may be true I have never seen an ad for an ED drug that used the word penis. That would have been the correct analogy. And despite lacking the term "penis", everyone pretty much understands what Viagra is for as they do with Kotex. If people did not understand the purpose of the product in the absence of the word vagina in the advertising then Kotex or it's parent company would have been broke long ago. This pissy little exercise that the company is engaging in is totally unnecessary.

Does anyone not find this whole issue anything other than a bit sad, for fuck's sake, periods are a fact of life for at least half of the population of this planet, and if the correct health education is going to be put across, then it helps if the recognised biological terms are used, so everyone gets an understanding, or can at least find one by using reference material. I for one cannot believe a modern country, perhaps superpower is still locked firmly in the past, hiding behind nonsense to describe actualities, just what is it the US is afraid of ??? How can such a country seek to change the ways of other countries, if it cannot in it's own country be open, honest and frank about the basics of life. Penis is not a particularly nice word, but then neither is vagina, but, they are words used in biological terms to accurately describe organs of the human body,just what do you find offensive by the mention of these words ? I really want to know, why is the word Vagina not permitted on advertising tv ?

I'm a nurse, and I really don't like the words 'penis' and 'vagina'. I prefer 'junk' and 'coochie'. Edited to add future sex convo w/kids Child: Mommy, How are babies made? Mom: Well, the husband sticks his junk in the wife's coochie and makes a baby grow. Child: What kind of junk?

with Vagina Monologues pioneering the frontier of the use of the word, Vagina, i soon predict it shall be as common as girlfriends lovingly endearingly calling each other bitches and sluts. it's the next level...perhaps a sign of the antichrist in Obama form, yes folks, vagina is coming, coming all over everything, she cannot be held back, her features are wide and varied, much like the game Mousetrap you played as a child. Vagina, it is by name, I prefer, Va-jay-jay...so much more fun... Otherwise, it's just called "what a pretty clit! I love your pussy! num num num num!" tee hee!

"Stuff" and "hoohah" for boys and girls. Nilla man refers to the hoohah as "the mouse".
