To not know what to call DS's "bits"

[Silverlace]

DSs are 6 and 4 and we have always said willy but now they have picked up "nuts" from school. I don't particularly like hearing them say it but suppose it is better that many words they could use! What are they called in your families?

Well quite right - if they are what they are then surely the other bits are what they are also!?
Willy and Goolies here. Apparently I have a wee wee.

Willy or Ging Gang Goolies here!!!

I agree floot and medi, each to their own etc but I find it just as odd/hang-up-y to insist on anatomical terms as it is to insist on ridiculous euphemisms (ie not commonly used ones like willy) but that's just IMHO...

I applaud the anatomists, but do you wipe their anus, natal cleft and perineum or bum?

Heard mangina recently and thought that rather hilarious, if not entirely appropriate :o

I don't like 'bits' but I'm not sure why. I also find it's use on the buy and sell boards objectional (although I believe it just means 'items' there :))

Heebie - what is your silly frou-frou name for the perineum then? Or the natal cleft? Do you have one for that? Why are you asking if we use it? No fucker has a child friendly pet name for their perineum, surely?!

'Bum' covers all of those pfft :)

Willy and biscuits here (DH started biscuits). Although DS doesn't call them anything yet. He just tugs on them. Or suddenly stops dead and stares down at them.

DS calls his tail and nuts, thats from school. DD calls hers a fairy. Although at the minute she is insisting she has nuts - comes from having 2 brothers I suppose. DS1 does know the correct names for his bits but chooses not to use them

what the hell's a "natal cleft"?

we have always just had "bits" for both DS and DD, although DS is a budding scientist and I have heard him correct DD in a very superior voice, "it's really a penis you know!!!"

Its always been "willy" with my two boys, but my youngest DS age 5 has recently started clutching himself and shouting "Ooooh, right in the gonies" whenever a stray ball/toy/ etc hits him......a shortening off "gonads" apparently, according to my DH! I definitely think its a subject of much discussion and mirth in the playground
