Does anyone call a penis a cock?

I'm wondering because I've agonized over dd and what to call her bits, but haven't given nearly enough thought to dS.

And I'm thinking that I've always liked the word 'cock'. It's .. well, it's cocky. Proud. A bit jokey. But not aggressive at all - at least I don't think so.

Anyone?

have you got a good name for it yet, bat?

this thread is hilarious. I laughed til my ribs hurt the other night, now just done same again

ds calls it his "Dick" - i call it winkle penis or willy to which he replies very loudly "no it's called DICK"

Hunker my DD has a vulva (obviously) which unfortunately she used to get confused with hoover when younger. DH disapproves of this though and tries to call it a tuppence WTF. Got him off this and he now asks her to wash her front bottom when in the bath.

He also referred to DS genitals as cock and balls the other day and I thought it sounded too grown up/rude for a 9 month old. Currently compromising on tail and willy.

Sorry tinker is a no go.

tuppence ROFL I used to call my fanny a 'duft' WTF? I HAVE NO IDEA WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Womba1 · 03/02/2008 12:56

My ds (4) refers to his as his 'wiggy' and my dsd always used 'wanny'. So, we'll continue with that for my dd too, unless she comes up with her own acceptable variation.

Ineedacleaner · 03/02/2008 20:13

Don't ask but dh and I were just having a convo which involved me being able to use a lot of these names for girls bits wish he worked at home would have loved to have seen his face when I called it my nancy pretty

I am still laughing at this thread.

pevie · 03/02/2008 21:22

Oh God thanks for cheering me up. Have been reading bits of this out to DH and he cant believe it??? We only have DDs so dont have this problem but have had conversations with friends who sometimes look horrified that we call our DDs something so twee as a 'foofy' but what is acceptable word for girls bits?

Also just to let you know dangers of word 'willy' which is what our DD1 calls boys bits. She fell about laughing the other day when we introduced her to one of mummys friends - Willy!!!!! V.embarrassing.

PaulaYatesBiggestFan · 03/02/2008 21:25

babies - bambo
boys - willy
teenager- knob
dp - prick schlong cock!

SorenLorensen · 03/02/2008 21:30

I'm late to this but we call them pork swords in our house.

No we don't...we call them willies

EddieMonsoon · 03/02/2008 21:33

I would be interested in knowing what your dds call the fanny. We've always gone with willy for penis but think fanny is a bit slangy. Vulva is too anatomical and un-friendly. Whats the equivalent of Willy for girls?

MrsEi25 · 03/02/2008 22:07

ROFLat this tread
i have grown up calling a boys penis his willy but with DH it changes with the weather (literally) it varies from love tool and one eyed spitting snake and when it is cold i secretly name it his maggot but obv. these are a bit grown up and not good for the self confidence so i would say its a widgie or a willy i think cock is a bit um...sharp for what it is describing dont know why...
but with DD we call her bits and bobs her penny and when i was growing up my mum taught me and my sister to call ours tiddles eeuch it makes my skin crawl a bit for some strange reason

Yesterday dh spotted a tea urn for sale in a shop here in Lagos which was a 'two cock' version. I told him it sounded like every woman's dream.

lucyellensmum · 04/02/2008 00:08

Willy willy willy willy willy

lucyellensmum · 04/02/2008 00:12

DD1 had a minky, not sure i will use that for DD2, i mean, isnt that some sort of ironing board cover?? I think she will have a minnie.

MirandaG · 04/02/2008 00:50

I used to call mine my bundy - imagine the hilarity when a brand of bread rolls called Bundies appeared on the market Had no idea what to tell DD1 to call hers, so we call them her girl's bits, (wimping out, I know), so mine became lady bits and DD2s (5 months) are baby bits. Will do the vulva vagina thing eventually. I thought vulva was the outside part and vagina the inside?
Think I would use willy rather than cock for a boy if I had one - cock is quite adult I think

onebatmother · 04/02/2008 23:08

you see lucyellensmum I think minky is .. a bit.. pussy-ish.

and Bundy is serial killer, surely?

dick is growing on me. (hormones are working)

Ds 2 sat in the bath yesterday and said mum look i've got a tail

AuntyThesis · 05/02/2008 09:45

dick is crude in polite circles
cock is adult

are you set on making your kid an outcast at school?

"pwease miss, tarquin kicked me in my COCK"

Threadworm · 05/02/2008 09:46

I tried to look up willies at Roget's Thesaurus online, but it had no relevant results (bowdlerised).

Oddly, though, there was a sponsored result:

'Need to buy cheap willies online? Shop at Willies.com.'

Cock sounds like a porn novel. "He thrust his stiff cock into..."
