I voted for "fingered" as not many people are familiar with the sex meaning of "pegged"

fyi--for people who don't know what pegged means, some people keep track of their sex partners with these like cribbage boards? and when you have sex with a new person, you write their name down on the board and put a peg next to it

Mr. Que, Wednesday, 1 July 2009 14:29 (fifteen years ago) link

also sometimes when you break up with the person, you give the peg back to them, but this is considered kinda rude in some circles

Mr. Que, Wednesday, 1 July 2009 14:30 (fifteen years ago) link

i thought it meant you tied ropes to their arms and pegged the ropes to the ground like a tent

and then slept under them

"fingered bleeding" is a good name for a band who wants to take crabcore in an edgier direction

lynndie englisher (country matters), Wednesday, 1 July 2009 14:32 (fifteen years ago) link

do americans have the phrase "pegged back"? it's regular brit sporting vernacular

lynndie englisher (country matters), Wednesday, 1 July 2009 14:33 (fifteen years ago) link

que it is always considered rude to return someone's peg to them in my experience, though nothing is more embarassing than being skunked imo

juliette brioche (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 1 July 2009 14:33 (fifteen years ago) link

"fingered" no question. It reminds me of gross teenage boys. It can also be kind of lol if used by adults tho.

ENBB, Wednesday, 1 July 2009 14:33 (fifteen years ago) link

Does anyone over eighteen boast about getting fingered or fingering somebody?

xp I actually didn't know the sexual term for it (pegging) until out of nowhere on Facebook chat a male friend told me that he really likes it, and went into detail as to which of his girlfriends would do him the favor, while I just wanted to talk about this other guy who has a vintage Pop Group t-shirt.

I can't hear "fingerbanging" without thinking "fingerbanging mary j. rottencrotch." Which obviously lessens my love for the term "fingerbanging."

Garri$on Kilo (Hurting 2), Monday, 6 July 2009 02:58 (fifteen years ago) link

i think of the south park episode. which obviously heightens my love for the term "fingerbanging."

i honestly don't see how gunnery sergeant hartman's usage of the term could possibly lessen "fingerbanging" for anyone. (fictional characters from the movie excluded, obv)
