What's in a name?
So...there's this chick ive been gettin pretty intimate with...you know how it is...incredible chemistry...intense insights on each others' life...and phonecalls that go waaaay past bedtime...
I think it must have been bout a week back...3am perhaps?...we're talkin bout sex (not havin sex mind you...)...when she totally threw me off with this question:
"So do you name your penis?"
WTF *guffaws*
Unfortunately ive never named my member...i never saw a need to...it performs well beyond my expectations when needed...overperforms when not needed *ahem*...and sometimes underperforms when you most need one (LOL...)
Has anyone ever wondered why there are so many slang words/derogatory terms that refer to excretory functions...sexual acts...and the body parts involved? WHY do we...as the animals at the very pinnacle of the food tree and evolutionary pyramid...feel the need to have so many ways to refer to such things? We have one or two words for...say...the television (google box)...car (automobile)...handphone (cellphone)...but a galactica of words to refer to sexual intercourse and its carnal cousins?
I wonder...why are some of the words that refer to our private parts and acts called dirty while others are not? The clinical terms arent seen as dirty...although they do make people shuffle in their seats...yet...you wont hear them used on kids' shows...disregardin a fact that it's considered OK for kids to say them (which is the basis for the "Boys have a penis, Girls have a vagina" joke in the not very funny Kindergarten Cop )...there are 'baby talk' versions for the words that refer to excretory functions (poo-poo)...the rear end (tushie)...breasts (boobs) and the male organ (Curiously...not the female organ)
It's strange when you think to yaself...we're all comfortable saying and hearing them...and they can be used even in silly shows with little kids (strangely...i just cant get 'Kids say the darndest things' out of my head...Bill Cosby's really runnin out of ideas to make us laugh...)
Come to think of it...there are so many polite terms that are deemed 'appropriate'...just becoz it has child-like references...'use the powder room'...'take a dump'...'get it on with' and 'go to bed with' are also everyday terms that we've all taken for granted...if only the kids knew the sexual connotations that came along with some of those slangs lol...
Then...we have the so-called 'dirty words'...the ones that warrants as 'cursin' and 'swearin'...the onces that'll affect a network's ratings...the movie's age-rating...seriously what is wrong with the word 'Fuck'?? Why cant we use em in the office with uninhibited aplomb without riskin the consternation of the boss or a frown from fellow work-mates? So my potential Parents-In-Laws heard me usin the F-word...am i still gona marry ya daughter?? Why punish 'lil kids when they use it...kids need to stand up for themselves too..."Fuck you *insert Big Bully's name here*...go pick on someone ya own size"...WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS?
How did these specific words get chosen from the many that refer to these intimate things as the ones that would be singled out as 'foul language'?...why is hearing those words shocking and upsetting to some people...when other words that describe the exact same things are ok?...why is talking dirty arousin...but substituting the clinical...baby-talk or polite terms would NOT be arousing...even though they mean exactly the same thing?
Example: the word FUCK
Euphemism 1: "Fuck you, you sonuvabeetch you fuckin swine"
Meaning: "Im this close to hittin you"
Euphemism 2: "Oh god ya so hot i so wana fuck you right here right now"
Meaning: "I wana rip ya clothes off and take you on the spot"
Euphemism 3: "WTF"
Meaning: "Wow holy shit!"
or
Meaning: "Oh my God..."
Euphemism 4: "Dont fuck with me you cunt"
Meaning: "Dont mess with me"
Euphemism 5: "Damnit he fucked me up"
Meaning: "He betrayed/cheated/side-stepped/wasted me"
Euphemism 6: "Fuck off"
Meaning: "Go away"
Euphemism 7: "I fucked it up"
Meaning: "I screwed up"
I rest my case...
Btw...i told her that i named my dick Phillip...
Was it Phillip? LOL...help me out my love...
