Tonight I am teaching about communication in my sex class, and one of the topics that always comes up is how awful the names are for women’s body parts. The clinical terms like vagina, clitoris, labia and vulva can quickly cool any steam that is starting to rise in the bedroom. The slang terms are so connected with pornography and the disrespect of women that for many of us, they cannot be allowed into our marriage bed.
It got me thinking about the nicknames that men use for their genitals. Men use names like…
Mr Happy
The Energizer Bunny
Man’s Best Friend
The Dicktator
Seabiscuit
The One Eyed Monster
Panchito
Mr Pickle
All names that possess desire, and will and being.
Women’s genital are nicknames after inanimate object, that have no mind of their own. Names like …
Oyster
Flower
Pearl
Cupcake
Honeypot
Bush
Now, the question is, do women’s genitals have desire, will and being. Is it a part of who you are as a person, or is it just an object to be used and consumed by others.
This may seem strange, but your mission this week is to come up with a nickname for your genitals. Something that might be a fun code word to use when you are in public, something that makes you feel sexy, something that rolls off of your tongue when you are in the heat of the moment. Some suggestions include …
Virginia
Lily
Cecilia
Conchita
Ginger
Pandora
Lucy
