Don't remember any pet names for vagina so I assume it was refereed to as just that. Butt was usually either hiney or tuchus.

lol @ refereed

you know what I meant

I think 'pet name' is prob a troublesome term here...

yeah I regretted "pet name" as soon as I hit send but wasn't going to draw further attention to it

THANKS, IATEE

I'm a pretty firm believer in not using cutesy nicknames for genitals with kids. It's just weird. Call it what it is. Maybe if more people did so we wouldn't have a bunch of grown women going around talkin' bout their vajayjays and whatnot.

Juggy Brottleteen (ENBB), Thursday, 6 October 2011 18:48 (thirteen years ago) link

But I guess cute nicknames are better than calling it "down there" or "that from which all evil stems" or something.

Friend of mine was telling me recently that her three year old announced one afternoon that they were different. She braced herself thinking this might be some important discussion about race that she hadn't prepared for yet because she's white and he's adopted from Ethiopia but instead he goes, "Yep! We're different cause I have a benis and you have a gina." She couldn't really argue with him there.

OMG. Probably pee-pee or wee-wee if you don't want to screw up your kid for life.

^ what happens when you don't have enough toys as a kid

elliptically and by arcane allusion

remy bean, Thursday, 6 October 2011 19:03 (thirteen years ago) link

my mom was super straightforward, like, i recall pointing out to other kids during more than one of those confused-kid 'conversations' abt penises and vaginas, that vagina and labia are different things. no one really cared :/

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Thursday, 6 October 2011 19:05 (thirteen years ago) link

my parents never mentioned anything to do with my, err, particulars. the closest they came was 'privates' but that term was used to grout over lacunae in conversation and body: "you hurt in your tummy? or is it closer to your privates or your knees?"

remy bean, Thursday, 6 October 2011 19:20 (thirteen years ago) link

damned if i wasn't a fucking awesome trespasser at 11, though, snooping around on "private property" whenever possible

remy bean, Thursday, 6 October 2011 19:20 (thirteen years ago) link

privates was common. also, "yourself".

I knew a guy who still referred to a vagina as the "ha-ha hole" well into his teens

Reminds me of Patton's bit "IM GONNA FILL YOUR HOO HA WITH GOOF JUICE!" So much creepier than the correct terms.

My dad always talked about not letting other people touch my private parts as a kid, but it was never explained to me WHAT "private parts" meant. I thought it had something to do with Inspector Gadget.

(I've figured out its meaning in the past 20 years, don't worry.)

Because four year olds have no qualms about referring to thier junk in public places at full volume, this is parents' way of neutralizing a wide variety of potential c-bombs and other similar letter-bombs.

I think most people in Denmark use 'tissemand' and 'tissekone' It means something like pee-man and pee-lady. It was way easier back then, today I have to choose between hundreds of names.
