My friend calls hers "Lettuce"

I will take your Mary and raise you ‘Lickies’ as in oral sex for the lady.
Thankfully not my fella and was a mix of horrified and pmsl when my friend told me about it.

Oh God he would not be allowed back near my Mary.

LtGreggs · 25/01/2020 19:40

Ahem. My name is Mary and I have NEVER heard this before and I am 49 years old and always lived in Midlands & North.

Have people been laughing at me for last half century???

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 26/01/2020 09:30

So is this this nursery rhyme an early reference to vajazzle?

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells, and cockle shells,
And pretty maids all in a row.

Looking at ddog rescues just now. A lovely little ddog available..
Called Mary!!...
I can't get it can I??

snickers69 · 26/01/2020 17:24

Go out for a drink and order a Bloody Mary....watch his face

MooMummy12 · 26/01/2020 17:31

Northerner here. Refer to it as a Mary when we were growing up & same with my little girl. But me & my partner don't use it to refer to mine. It's more child friendly.

Like if my partner turned round and called I'd be completely turned off too. Though there's a few things I'd rather it not be called.

What would you rather him call it?

FloraGreysteel · 26/01/2020 17:33

My Welsh grandma used to call it a "middle for diddle". ShockConfused

Lunafortheloveogod · 26/01/2020 17:49

@Whynosnowyet
aww get little Mary.. she just might be a little bit of a cunt. Grin

Whynosnowyet · 26/01/2020 17:57

Her fur is very shaggy!!
Maybe a Brazilian??

iklboo · 26/01/2020 18:01

I'm in the north - it was called your ha'penny or tuppence (not sure why the increase in expenditure Grin)

AmelieTaylor · 26/01/2020 18:05

So, go on, tell us what you prefer him to call it...

Family Friendly names are just not suitable for the bedroom, if you ask me.

~definitely call his Grace~

Mary54 · 26/01/2020 18:08

I always assumed everyone had their own names for that sort of thing. Not really understanding why it’s upsetting you

YorInch · 26/01/2020 18:09

At least he doesn't refer to it as 'The Cave' - my DP has started doing this linked to the idea that his thingie is 'The Bear'.

notbloodylikely · 26/01/2020 18:12

I think the whole phrase 'your mary feels so good tonight' which I'm struggling to type without gagging, is wrong because it somehow implies it's separate to you, its own entity. Because 'you feel so good tonight' is much more acceptable and it makes it about YOU, not just some orifice. There's no need for any Mary/foo/minnie/pussy/cunt at all.

Northernsoullover · 26/01/2020 18:16

Its Mary Jane surely? My mum used to be a carer and when assisting with bathing the flannel would get handed to the bathee with instructions not to forget 'Mary Jane'

bridgetreilly · 26/01/2020 18:27

On the baby naming forum, someone always mentions this whenever anyone suggests Mary. So it's not just him. But I really don't think it's that common, is it? I've never heard it IRL.

NaviSprite · 26/01/2020 18:43

I’ve never heard of Mary in this context before Shock what a passion killer - if my DH said this I’d either laugh him off me or say something absurd:

Him “Your Mary feels so good tonight”
Me “As does your Reginald” (or some other name if you know a Reginald!).

Seriously though - why not just say “you feel so good tonight” - much simpler!

exaltedwombat · 26/01/2020 18:47

'Growler' is rhyming slang. Growl and grunt. Sorry!

kalinkafoxtrot45 · 26/01/2020 18:58

Haha! In some parts of Scotland a “boaby” is the term used when referencing the male generative member, perhaps you could christen his with that fine name, or Robert for best.

I really think your Mary should have a Spotify playlist:
Mary’s prayer
Proud Mary
The wind cries Mary

And definitely don’t listen to the Green Green Grass of Home! 🤣

Shockers · 26/01/2020 18:59

My exH used to call his Claud. I think because it rhymed with ‘pork sword’.

Classy bloke, he was.

Lesleyharp · 26/01/2020 19:02

is he from Dublin by any chance...a very common slang name for vagina there ...strange but true ..

Jarbie · 26/01/2020 19:08

Haha that's funny. I've heard it being called "Mary" shortened from "hairy mary" so I've heard.

TheBigFatMermaid · 26/01/2020 19:09

It's a Biblical reference. Martha and Mary. Mary was in the front, so to speak and Martha was in the background, doing all the work!
