to still be giggling over my GP calling condoms....

...'The Sheath'?

It was over six weeks ago, and I was visited at home by the GP after the birth of DS. He enquired about birth control (being the fifth HCP to do so), and I told him we would be using condoms. 'Ah,' he said, 'the sheath'. DH and I couldn't even look at each other, and collapsed into giggles as soon as the GP left.

Every time I think about it, I still smirk/giggle a bit. AIBU?

Ralph

That's funny re. BlackBerrys thingiebob - we always refer to the trackball thing as the clit

Is your GP 80?

Sheath is such a fab word. As is Schlong.

Septimus - lol!

YANBU LOL!!

Id have struggled to hold it in until he left!

and hang on a go who home visits!!! here they want you dead for that honour!

Classic. Am going to try this on my patients tomorrow and see how long it takes to make one laugh.

Reminds me of Alan Partridge. "I have some sheaths."

Gross lmao!

do we have the same GP?

we offer ds sheaths when he goes out - he declines of course ( good boy!)

In my youth, everyone referred to them as 'rubber johnies' which I never hear now (not that i mix in such circles as are discussing contraception regulalry in any case).

I call them johnnies.

I nearly called ds2 Johnnie but my mother made a face so thought better not...

Huh. Must have been sheath in the UK version of Forever. It was most definitely rubber in the US version!

It was, however, also Ralph...

we always used to call them jollybags

Always "rubber johnnies" in my school. You never hear that now.

dh calls them John Doms lol

Me and DP call them 'hats' because at secondary school, in the nurses office was a very funny poster of a picture of 3 condoms with little smilie faces and said 'don't forget you hat!'. It's hilarious when you are 14....

In response to OP, I am in stitches at sheath!!
I'm actually in pain!!

littlepurple - i remember that too!
it was really funny seeing the willies as "people" with faces and hats on.

(unless it was slightly different but still the same idea...)

thats the one! Why did they think that was a good idea for teenagers, we just laughed!

DP calls them 'Jackets' because my mum told him 'never to go into the wet without a Jacket on'

They are rubbers round these parts, i would have sniggered at Sheath especially as one of the GP's at our surgery is called Dr Sheath.

When I was a youngster a friend's little brother was called Jonathan, or Johnny to his family.

We used to call him Rubber Johnnie for a laugh until the day he went and asked his Dad what a Rubber Johnny was. I think he got a right telling off as his Dad just thought he was trying to be a bit cheeky but the poor kid really had no idea what he was asking

'schlong'

OMG, I feel sick.
