My houseful of brothers referred to the lone female's parts as her "bitsy-body."
A patient once came to my (gyn) office complaining of "Bumps on my cha-cha."
Musical: Have you never heard of playing the pink piccolo? Nor been admonished to keep it clean as a whistle or it won't get blown?
A personal favorite song bit that is hard to keep a straight face through is "Brennan on the Moor" which includes lines like "when Willie he went down" and "When she saw her Willie she began to weep and cry."
And Saki (H. H. Munro) has a male character, interrupted in his bath by his mother of all people who asks "What are you doing?" that he is washing "From my neck to my merrythought, and from my merrythought to my..."   I do admire the term merrythought.

I know someone who calls his the frog - because it likes being in wet places.....

As for quim... well, I can't listen to 'the lion sleeps tonight' since I heard it done by a very correct looking trio, one of whom insisted on singing 'quim away', which brought forth a whole slew of rude images and naughty pictures......

Dear sad Guest,

shame, shame on me - but what can you expect from such a bunch including bicoloured rabbits, laughing cats and a walrus?
By the way, I'm a drummer, and we always love to bang happily away. (Sometimes even to the sound of fifes. Fife, or flute, another word in my home country for the male thingie: they are so nice to handle.)

From the philologue's point of view, this is one of the most interesting threads I have encountered so far.
I very much appreciate the last contribution with the expression from NZ. I had some difficulties (as a non native speaker) to decipher the slew and did a long search through online dictionaries. Which of the following entries does give the meaning intended?

slough 1 also slew (sl) n.
1. A depression or hollow, usually filled with deep mud or mire.
2. also slue A stagnant swamp, marsh, bog, or pond, especially as part
   of a bayou, inlet, or backwater.
3. A state of deep despair or moral degradation.

slough 2 n.
1. The dead outer skin shed by a reptile or amphibian.
2. Medicine. A layer or mass of dead tissue separated from surrounding
   living tissue, as in a wound, sore, or inflammation.
3. An outer layer or covering that is shed.


BTW. some 30 years ago Peter Rühmkorff wrote a book Über das Volksvermögen (ambiguous: About the People's Property Assets / the People's Ability), where he collected and discussed a lot of bawdy folk songs and verses, partially concerned with the theme threaded here. Awfully funny, indeed.

I'll confess that I am appalled at how many people **regularly** use cutesy euphemisms for those parts, whether their own or in general...it seems to me that it displays a certain lack of comfort in discussing them at all...*shrug*.. there are common 'vulgar' terms for erotic situations, and standard medical/anotomical terms for polite company....and 'pet names' like "Lady Jane" and "Mister Tom" for interpersonal use among close friends (I knew a lady who named her breasts Matilda & Ermintrude)....but "one-eyed trouser snake" and its ilk bewilder me in THIS day and age!

Come to think of it..."George Bush" is an absolutely superb name for a penis, but I think I'll choose to leave mine nameless.

If it's any help, Shalom, I had a friend years ago who called his "Little Wally" (much to the amusement of all of us). He was a bit immature, and found women so terrifying that he was barely able to look directly at them or speak to them, despite inwardly desiring them, but he assured us that Little Wally was simply gigantic when aroused. Uh-huh. Usual story. The problem was that the female half of the population never got to offer any testimonials about it at all. Sad, really. That was back in the early 70's. I hope he has made some progress in the intervening years.

Well, I don't think there's an lack of folk-song relevance to the topic of thingies. Easily two-thirds of the songs ecver written would have been menaingless if not for the influence of the Incandescent Pickles and Volvo hot-boxes sprinkled through history.

Amos, when I read your[i] "And I had a girlfriend when I was in my late teens who called it Pegoo,"[/i] I'm just dyslexic enough that at first I thought you said you called it "Pogo." I spent a few moments trying to conjure up image connections (possums, pogo sticks ...) that would make that make sense.
Or was it because Pogo was so wise?
...Nah, that's definitely not it! :lol

Amergin [i]"My brain"[/i] Good one!

Why do men name their penises? The way I've heard it is it's
"Because they want to be on a first name basis with the guy who's in charge!"

Dave Bryant,
THANK YOU for pointing out the distinction between "vulva" (or "pussy) and "vagina" (something hardly anyone but the gynecologist ever SEES)! Playboy centerfolds often show their labia (majora and majora), their vulvas (sometimes even their Volvos) -- yeah, their pussies, but I have yet to see one of their vaginas! ;-)

OK, so some of you want musical relevance?
How about "Dickie-die-do" (sp?) as a slang word for "pussy?" (From "The Mayor Of Bayswater" -- "The hairs on her dickie-die-do hung down to her knee."
