I'm adding it to my cringe list. Along with 'moist', 'lube' and 'unpick'

OublietteBravo beat me to it. Engineers need flanges, it's a useful thing.

Nothing on a human's body needs referring to as a flange though

It's been years since I heard that phrase. I think it's a bit pretentious and wanky but it doesn't make me cringe in the way over phrases do.

I have never heard anyone in RL say the word 'minge'. I really hope I never hear anyone say 'fluid bonded' as part of a RL conversation with me either.

You learn something new everyday.

Big Dave fluid bonded so he had a moist gusset.

I'll never forget the morning that I discovered my teenage son had fluid bonded his bedsheet in the night. Blergh

I have never heard 'sanpro' in RL. I don't mind it on MN because it's quick to type and everyone knows what you mean. Saves typing 'sanitary towels/tampons/mooncups etc' or 'feminine hygiene products'.

Flange is great!

Fluid bonded just sounds like crossing streams while you piss nope, never done that, oh no

I don't mind moist, yeast, felch. Not a fan of panties just so murdering-knicker-sniffer of a name.

Sounds more like kissing than shagging, actually.

I'm adding 'muff' to the list. Sounds musty, dusty and gruff.

DeeCee, I believe the sentence earlier was "DP and I are fluid bonded".

Actually, is there any attractive word in the English language for female private parts?!?

YANBU.

It's utterly revolting and makes an unprotected shag sound so damned mechanical.

If that guy on the telly says 'pulled pork' one more time, I'll hurl. It sounds like wanking

Fluid bonded sounds to me like some kind of engineering expression. And it's fine for that, but for anything relationship related? Euch!

I have no problem with any of the other words/phrases mentioned here. BLS/baby wearing is very useful to identify the uses mindset Grin

How about 'growler', brightnearly? Grin

'Baby-wearing' conjures up weird, Buffalo-Bill esque vibes.

On a tenuously related note 'mummy tummy'. I actually once found maternity jeans called that: 'Mummy tummy jeans'. I'm still enraged about it 20 years later, which proves I'm mad that they were evil.
