Guy I am seeing used the word phallus on a date. Am I alone for finding this an ick?! It seems ridiculous to not see him because of that but ewwww

What did he actually say?
What was the context?
It's a grim word though.

Helpmepliss · 14/10/2022 08:31

it was a funny context tbf just said how an object in his grandmas house (a vase) really looked like one but she loved it

Might put that one down to nerves if the phallus conversation stops there.

I would find that ick.
I'm not keen on the America bashing that frequently goes on here, but I do find that they have very childish names for body parts and things to do with sex, and those are becoming increasingly common here. Any use of titties, panties, cream pie or sexy times puts me off completely. And I couldn't take any adult seriously, let alone have sex with, someone who calls a cock a pee pee or a wiener.

I could probably forgive him for saying ‘my man has a giant phallus on her mantelpiece’. If he started to refer to his own phallus, I’d be going nowhere near it.

*NAN!!!

Is he into ancient Greek civilisation?

Helpmepliss · 14/10/2022 08:38

No don’t think so just thought it was a weirdly formal to describe, well, a dick

I always say this one, but someone being rude to waiters/waitresses always gave me the instant ick on dates.

NightmareSlashDelightful · 14/10/2022 08:39

I think you can’t help your icks. They’re not always rational. But if you ick, you ick. 🤷‍♂️

Helpmepliss · 14/10/2022 08:39

Nightmare - yeah that’s horrible, rude how?
