    My english missus says foo foo & front bottom, and all manner of stupid ****.

    Once, when I called her a c*nt, she pulled a face and said "did you just call me a noom"?

    She knows better now.

    Vagina really is an ugly word.

    Haven't heard that one - and I spend a fair bit of time there (although little of it is spent talking about vaginas :pac:).

    Now that I think of it, it's obviously where the word 'gowl' comes from.

    When my daughter was young we called it her flower.
    She has used the same term with her daughter now too.

    So I guess someone watered her flower with his hosepipe.

    But the correct term for the visible parts of female anatomy is VULVA. The vagina is invisible unless you are using a speculum.

    Useful for kids to learn both common and correct words: fanny and vulva, mickey/willy and penis. Why not? Why not be comfortable with both?


    This is pretty much my take on it too. Depending on my mood really, if I'm talking to my child in a serious manner I'll say penis, and if I'm any other kind of mood, it could be any number of slang terms. Vulva and the associated slang terms haven't really come up yet, but I'd treat them the same way.

    The important point is that he knows the proper terminology at least, but if he uses a slang term, I'm still going to get the general idea of what he's saying, we're not in an anatomy class, just general conversation.

    You call your son's penis a lapwing? :confused: Well, 'cock', is used in lots of languages, I suppose. Though lapwings don't strut around and they're rather floppy-winged in flight. Dotey little crests on their heads though. :)

    I used the term "gee" from a very early age - like three or four! Must have heard someone use it.

    I've always liked the word mooey.

    In fact I'll probably have it on my headstone.

    "He liked mooey" :)

    Penis and Vagina.

    No reason at all to not use the correct terminology.

    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?

    Well don't pass on your unease with penis and vagina to your kids.

    Yep it a always been a mooey or a noonie in our house. I've just the one girl so penis very rarely came up in general conversation, but if mentioned I think it was a winkle.
