Bagpuss, I remember reading that Gossip was once quite a positive ... label? I'll have to look it up, but I know that it, at one point, referred to a Godmother, also to a female confidant. Someone who could be confided in and trusted.

Not answering the question, but I find it interesting where lots of the words for women came from originally. Many go back to old english. For example, bird comes from the word bride, and hussy comes from housewife. Anyone know the origins of any others?

How about 'man-flesh'. I think that's quite evocative.

I dunno, you're moving in on a chick, and she goes all woolly jumper on ya. It went out as a compliment and was returned as an insult! Made her tea to make up, and she still dobs me in.

The present Mrs Skipjack prefers "slime". Charming!

To all you "birds" out there men are but boys but their toys are more expensive.
In Sherborne last night I overheard a man explaining to his wife why he just had to have the carbon fibre fly fishing rod and matching reel even though he had four at home.

You know Patrish, you're right......there are loads of phrases for women but very few for men......I sometimes refer to Gomez as 'my present husband' ( nicked from Wogan), which kept him on his toes until he discovered another woman ( see Llanstock 2)and I've heard Fiona refer to someone as 6'2" of wet fart......and other less flattering phrases but no specific, , well used phrases spring to mind...maybe we should invent some?

Don't you lot start blaming the collie cold on me!!! I didn't ask it to go up there and anyway it said it was only watching!!! If I get herpes or something from that dog, I have it's guts for guitar strings.

To get back to the thread.......

This is a-sexual and applies to both sexes. I often say "A waste of a good skin".

Sorry about the cold, I don't think I passed it around(except for the sheep)

If you lot have got colds then you should have got to the sheep FIRST ! Not second!!!!

Watch out because, I think the parasite is called "Ovallis" and it's difficult to treat. So they tell me. Unlike you lot I believe in safe sex and kept me wellies on!!!!!!

Bye..........

Eric.

This cold thing seems to be spreading..... I had to sniffle and sneeze through two meetings today, if you've ruined my chances to be 'spotted' on the BBC this week, there will be words!!

I've always been told that women are called birds because we pick up worms......

I don't know what the fuss is about, men are really good for tiling


But you have to slice them really, really thin.
I've got that cold, too, and I blame Eric the Viking. There are a lot of sheep sneezing on the hillside, and one collie I noticed.........!!!!!

Gentlemen who are easy on the eye I would (and often do) call 'tasty piece of stuff' Amoret calls them 'a bit of phwoooaarr'

got to go to a meeting, but will entertain myself therein by thinking up some more.

Are we looking for all-purpose can-be-used-in-public words? Or other?

When I first moved here, I couldn't figure out what w*nk*r meant. Someone told me it was a guy that slappers went out with. I was none the wiser.

The older end of the market can be Old Gits or (maybe this is N.American) Old Geezers.

In this part of Wales, they use *cwrcyn* / tomcat or "pwdryn" / lazy sod.

It isn't easy, is it?

Big girls blouse - but whats the matter with small girls blouses?
Sheep shagger - some men quite like to be called this, the mind boggles, well mine does
Finding the right sort of name for a man that is not PC, but not downright disusting is more dificult than I thought it would be
Perhaps sweetbuns is ok, or hunky munky or perhaps this was a stupid idea in the first place!
I blame skipjack. Oh and BTW thanks for sharing the cold lads (big kiss) sniff sniff

Skipjack is responsible for this thread.(he know why)
I try to be PC in formal surroundings, but when you are with a load of friends being unPC can be a laugh. As a woman (yes I am, not a frenchman as someone said at the weekend) I have been called various things, such as bird or totty or chick. I was wondering if there were similar names for men. There is bloke, chap, useless piece of skin on the end of a p***s. Any ideas?
Patrish who is not trying to alienate all of the masculine persuasion - honest
