I have thought of 2 other ones that are very childish really, "foofoo" and "weewee". They are silly names that parents use to very young girls. My mum said "weewee" to me when I was about 3 or 4. Weewee is a very childish word that means urinate and that is why little English girls call their vulva that as well some times.
@Switchablesusie saidOne of the reason I like "cunt" so much is because it sounds so dirty.You're right, it is. Also, labeling someone a 'dirty cunt' is a commonly heard expression.
There is a movement to change the bad connotation of cunt.All it needs is enough social momentum and the change will occur by itself. Media usage or not may very well be a deciding factor. Maybe in 5 or 10 years time you will see the difference ... then again maybe it will fizzle. With language, you never know.
Anyone remember the term, "box"? Was used a lot when I was in undergrad school.Speaking of " box," Andrew "Dice" Clay used to ask the riddle:Q: What's the definition of "vagina?"A: The box a penis comes in.
My youngest daughter's stoma nurse calls them ' front bottom ' and ' back bottom ' . My daughter looked at the nurse like she had 2 heads when she first heard them named that as we've always called them the correct names . The said nurse was from Finland , maybe they use those names there .I remember another time when the youngest was about 6 coming in from school and saying " Sarah said its called a ' fur China ' not a vagina "Which then ended in a debate that it starts with the letter 'V' and not the letter 'F'Nikki
I have heard of "front bottom" and "back bottom" lots of times and I think that is one of the silliest ones. It is just so childish."Fur china" is very funny too Nikki. I will try saying that to my husband and I bet he will look at me like I have gone mad.
If anyone used that kind of talk with me, I would ridicule them so badly they would wish they had a car crash and didn't come in to work that day.
I have always called my vagina a vagina unless engaging in dirty talk with husband or partners in the past where only other term use is pussy.Personally though I like to call my anatomy by their anatomical name, vagina is the opening/ canal whole external genitals is my vulva. I have always used and encouraged proper terms with my girls to.I hated it when other parents I knew or those mothering forums would use silly terms like whohaw, front bottom or even nunnie I heard once. what the hell why cant you use the proper words people!! I certainly wouldn't except it from nurse or other health professional.I would just play dumb if anyone uses silly names and refuse to admit I know what they are referring to until forced to say vagina.
They should be saying vulva really Molly because that is what they mean.If I say vagina I am talking about my love tunnel.
I would just play dumb if anyone uses silly names and refuse to admit I know what they are referring to until forced to say vagina.I thought I was the only one who did this. I mean I call it girl parts too when in "polite" company but at least that should be obvious. People using "cutesy" words though.. yea, not gonna fly.

It's frustrating when people don't use the right words.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZbqAMEwtOEThis is a recreation of an actual REAL lawsuit deposition!
I have thought of another one that I think is a Hindu word, "yoni". I like that one, I think it is quite nice and feminine.
I have thought of another one that I think is a Hindu word, "yoni". I like that one, I think it is quite nice and feminine.Right. Now I remember the word too. It seemed to crop up more often back in days of Love and Peace, when the Kama Sutra was still a novelty. Quite nice indeed.I didn't much care for the male counterpart name though: lingam. Sounds too much like some kind of Italian pasta dish ... 😃

Sounds too much like some kind of Italian pasta dish ... 😃Yeah I have seen yoni in the Kama Sutra and I do not really like "lingam" either because it just sounds like a word for some long rubbery thing. Hahaha
I have thought of another one that I think is a Hindu word, "yoni". I like that one, I think it is quite nice and feminine.Fuck my yoni doesn't do it for me. I don't think it would for my husband either.Fuck my dirty cunt sounds like a lot more fun!Likewise, I don't think being told "suck my lingam" would turn anyone on either.
Fuck my yoni doesn't do it for me. I don't think it would for my husband either.Fuck my dirty cunt sounds like a lot more fun!I guess yoni is for the soft and gentle Center of the Universe thing, being at harmony with the inner self and feeling the flow of energy along the vital lines of the body as it pulses with your glowing aura ...That kind of talk was from long ago, fun days in a way, all sweetness and innocence ... and even so, it got parents all riled up, thinking it heralded the end of Civilization ... he he
Fuck my yoni doesn't do it for me. I don't think it would for my husband either.Fuck my dirty cunt sounds like a lot more fun!I would not tell my husband to "fuck my yoni" either but I think yoni could be a nice word to use at other times. No, yoni would not turn my husband on. When we are having sex I some times might tell him to "fuck my cunt" and I think "dirty" is a good word to use then too.
Guys I am Hindu!We don't use yoni and lingam...doh!And these two words goes long way back to the time of God and these two words have deep meaning with the Lord Shiva.So.... Just pure weird lol the words that is...And not sexy at all! If some guy or girl say it to me I would have a blank face for like 2 minutes.
The Kama Sutra dates back from sometime between 1,900 to 2,400 years ago as @Spankingmaster says, and is an ancient Hindu Sanskrit text. I agree that the 'yoni' and 'lingam' words aren't likely to be found arousing by anybody these days. I very much doubt they were arousing back in those ancient times either, as I understand that 'yoni' only came to symbolise the vulva during the 1800s at the latest. Before that, 'yoni' was a reference to the female consort of the god Shiva.I hope I'm accurate with all of that, Cookie. Please feel free to correct me.
Yes drz, it was never an arousing word because "yoni" is referred to as a power and energy. Also, lingam is referred as power of lord shiva.Union of yoni and lingam originates life.I can't really say about origin of word . Now a days in India these words are only used when someone is going through the religious studies.And yes you are correct, it's a sanskrit text. And not at all arousing hehehe
I have thought of another one, "minge". It is a bit odd this one because it can mean long pubic hair or a woman's genitals.
"Cunt". This is the oldest word for it in the English language. Chaucer used it. The "four-letter words" became "vulgar" in the Elizabethan era when they were replaced by Latin terms, and then "cunt" became "vagina". Of course, professionally I use "vagina", but what I have in bed is my "cunt".

Of course, professionally I use "vagina", but what I have in bed is my "cunt".We discussed Chaucer a few days ago in this thread, and it was established 'cunt' was not actually the word he used. See this post -http://www.zity.biz/index.php?mx=forum;ox=display;msg=752591
Well, I stand corrected about Chaucer; however, when I studied his work as an undergrad, that is what I was told.I do stand by "cunt" being the original English language word: According to https://www.google.com/?ion=1&espv=2#q=cunt%20etymology"Cunt: Middle English: of Germanic origin; related to Norwegian and Swedish dialect kunta, and Middle Low German, Middle Dutch, and Danish dialect kunte ."Yes, it's vulgar, more vulgar than the "f word". And to use it to mean anything other than an organ, i.e., to call a woman one, is totally unacceptable in my book!And in my bed, I have a "cunt"!
@Sophia, it seems there are different opinions on the etymology, though what does seem to be consistent is that the word 'cunt' is of German origin. An alternative spelling for the Middle English word is 'cunte'. Maybe the usage varies according to dialect. It's all very interesting, but hard to arrive at a definitive answer.I agree, there is a schoolboy vulgarity about the word 'cunt', and in that way has misogynistic connotations. As an insult, in my experience it is more commonly used against men. I've had certain kinds of people, most often men, shout that at me more times than I can remember. Coming from them, I take it as a kind of compliment. 😁

More than being called anything else, women hate being called a cunt.PRICK would be the insult used more against men.If a bunch of guys are calling someone a wimp, they would call him a pussy.If I'm in a peaceful, sexy mood, it's fuck my pussy.If I'm being bad, its fuck my dirty cunt.Speaking of CUNT, there are five, four letter words in the English language that end in "U-N-T". Can you came them?
