So many words do not stand up to scrutiny if analysed that way. Honestly not able to say I have analysed this as deeply as you have, but am intrigued by your thoughts on this.<br />Nimbusova sounds a tad new age to me, so I would have to agree on kisswicket. You are definately right about the hard sounds at the end though. Perhaps what we also need are more light hearted (though not cutsie) nicknames for the vagina that dont carry the same baggage of female oppression. Obviously not for formal settings.mohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17650186340838375703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6762190547069852689.post-22216666357948483342012-10-28T18:42:49.191+00:002012-10-28T18:42:49.191+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.mohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17650186340838375703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6762190547069852689.post-63628821474067211482012-10-27T19:40:58.986+01:002012-10-27T19:40:58.986+01:00i'm bringing it home since the Good Men Projec...i'm bringing it home since the Good Men Project has probably lost interest... Re: Wondersocket: in a conversation with some friends about WHY this could be offensive when no one had ever heard it; 'Imagine the term for vagina, instead of for women'. One friend says 'We were raised with a theocracy (meaning Christo-Judea thought) and referring to 'fun' in sex is difficult.' Contrast this term with 'Nimbusova' which no one finds offensive; an the ancient terms it refers to fertility, the egg. The middle ground was Kisswicket, which contained the hard Germanic syllables we associate with slang (cock, fuck) but didn't directly reference the vagina. Here's the ruleset to rolling your own: informal has those hard vocal consonants, espec. at the end; formal romantic ends softly and references fertility, life-giving; obscene can substitute directly for a cum receptacle.
