So, what do you call it?

Good morning y'all! Beth Williamson here. My turn, my turn, my turn! Wowza, it's been too long since I blogged for SEx. Glad to be back! *tips hat*
My topic today... what do you call it? Ya know, the manly, dangling part of your SO (if indeed it is a he) or yourself? In other words, the "penis".
There are so many words used, they vary between men and women (which is veddy interesting). I've collected a list of commonly used words.
Penis (much too scientific)
Dick (men use this one a lot)
Cock (one I use consistently in my work)
Shaft (makes me think of the tv show)
Hard-on (very common)
Erection (this one "pops" in there too)
Hardness (kinda vague)
Rod of Redemption (redeeming what?)
Staff of Pleasure (let's hope so)
Pleasure stick (stick? eh, no)
Love wand (I have no idea what to think of this one)
Magic wand (where's the magic?)
Mr. Johnson (who is this?)
Wang (this one is a little too odd)
Schlong (for all the NYers out there)
All right, y'all, share your favorites! Are they on my list? Or do you have others that you use regularly - whether in speaking or in writing or in fantasy. ;)
Let the naming begin!
Everyone that posts today gets entered to win a copy of Vixen Virgins, my anthology with Robin Danner, currently available LSB. Yep, that's me. The Virgin. *BG*

ooh ooh.... lets see...

I had an ex that called it Moby, one that called it HIM (rather bizzare considering the musician), one called it Toots... still trying to figure that one out, and one called it Richard Nixon. Apparetly he could do the "I am not a crook" Speech with it. But damn if i ever saw it. lol... the next question should be.. does a guiy name his testicles????

Hummm let's see. Willie, peepee tongue, one eyed monster, lizzard, my boy, woodie, chubbie. My boys, I have three of them, call their testicles Nards. Don't ask me.
I just woke up can't think of any more.

"Who's my friend?"

I have cousins named Rod, Dick and Lance. And guess what...they are all pony-boys. Huge. Oh...no...we're not talking cousin-lovin' here. We've just discussed these things over the years...sitting in the living room...the cousins, their wives and their draft horses the guys have between their legs. Rod. Dick. Lance. What was their mother thinking? "Oh, look, Burt! I've given birth to another penis! Let's name this one Lance!"

Oy.

One of my ex's called it a Saluting Soldier...

Some popular terms in highschool were
purple headed yogurt slinger
tent pole
beaver cleaver *sigh...teenage boys*
spelunker (is that how you spell it?)

I am a straight forward kind of gal. Erection, shaft, cock are the words I use when it comes to making love...otherwise, it is a penis. Loved reading the terms that other people have used or heard, would never be able to pull off using any of those terms without killing the mood with my guffaws.

Howdy Beth! I really have no names for it since I typically stick with dick or penis in my speech and cock in my writing. My nephew likes to use wanker, which is much better than what my mom wants him to say which is "tee tee". I always jump in to correct her and tell my nephew, "It's your penis, Boo." He's at the age where he's got penis obsession. I asked him what he was doing and he told me, "Holding my nuts." LOL! Okay, okay, so I might have taught him a few other words when my momma wasn't listening. Hee hee!

I guess I am rather unimaginative. Basically, I have used penis, schlong (had to laugh because I am a former NYer) and the family jewels.

Okay, I'll put my hand up and say I call my penis "my fella" "prick" or "the artillery." As for the other part of the assembly, "nut cluster" is a favorite.

There's the term "pillock" used for abuse here in the UK, which derives from the Old English pillie-cock = "small penis."

Anyone else find it odd that the parts we love so much should be used as terms of abuse?

LOL!!! What a post!!! I am not sure what I call it. My younger cousin used to call it a tallywacker and my nephews call is a wee-wee.

PETER! I don't call it that, but I've heard it celled 'his Petere" LOL

I must admit I got a kick out of Nut Cluster also. I've got another one you authors would enjoy. My youngest brother (father of aforementioned nephew) loves to say "throbbing member" around me since he knows what sort of books I write. Don't worry! I've never used the term in one of mine, but I'm quick to correct him. "Cock. My word of choice is cock." Shuts him up pretty quickly. LOL

I use cock, shaft and tool most frequently when writing. DH used to call his Thor (aka the hammer) and more recently Mr. Happy (and why shouldn't he be)

lol i too am a straight forward kind of gal. I just think it's hilarious that all men name there's. But i've never heard a of a woman naming hers. My dh calls his junior.

I like the one they used on the last episode of Golden Girls (although they may have meant sex itself not just the penis)
Dorothy and her fiance called it Freddy Peterson...so when Dorothy says Ready Freddy I guess we all know what she's thinking about

LMAO! I remember heat seeking moisture missle!

Robin - my husband says the same thing...."So hon, is the throbbing member getting any action yet?" He also thinks that every other word in a romance novel (not even erotic romance...just a regular romance) should be either crimson or throbbing, and that fantasy is just an innocent way of saying erotica.....can you tell he's not a big reader?

Yeah the tubesteak boggie.....
But my all time Favorite is The art of sucking Dick by NWA. I was in high school and played that song I thought my mother was going to come unglued.
