Legitimate words for private parts to children

KingOfFairview · 2014-08-01 19:56:38

I've always been deeply uncomfortable with the medical terminology for our genitalia, so, like most parents, I told my son he had a mickey. My wife was grand with that, but for some reaosn she flipped when I told him girls had fannies, preferring that we teach him the V word. Who has the right of it, and why?

If I was that uneasy with penii and v-words I wouldn't have any kids in the first place

yet in all your posts you say v-word instead of vagina/vulva.

Talking dirty to the wife would be tricky.

Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.
