The Word "Vagina"

Yes. A young feminist, sexually uncomplexed, raunchy, perhaps lesbian, could say something like that, ESPECIALLY on a message board. My guess is she gets a kick out of shocking the prudes.

I don't think that Whitebars is a sock puppet.

On the other hand, I do have a sock puppet of my own in invented as a negative crazy extremist feminist caricature, to stir up dissension among other posters, including among female posters.

I might as well fess up to everyone now.

Prudes?

Are those the people who don't know humans have sex organs? Laughing

Or men who don't know women have vaginas as part of their internal sexual/reproductive apparatus? Laughing

Or maybe whitebars is a transgendered male, who still retains a vagina, and is getting rebuffed by a heterosexual female they are coming on to because the vagina is making them uncomfortable...

The only other folks who might feel uncomfortable about vaginas are men who believe in the notion of vagina dentata.

For those who just don't care for the anatomical term...

A vagina by any other name … nicknames for your girl bits

It's been a linguistic stumbling block since Eve first covered hers up with a fig leaf ... just how do we describe the female genitalia? Bek Day looks at some of the more colourful euphemisms that have appeared over the years...

I’ve been privvy to some pretty colourful euphemisms for the female genitalia. From a parenting perspective, you can see how finding a name to help little girls identify what’s going on down there can be problematic. For a boy, insisting on the correct anatomical name for his penis is no big deal. But for a girl, calling it her ‘vagina’ is not always going to be correct. In fact, little girls predominantly want a word for the external business – in which case vagina is incorrect, but there aren’t many little girls running around calling it a ‘vulva’ – nor many adults, for that matter.

And so, the euphemisms. There are many. Some gross. Some creepy. Some not having even the vaguest thing to do with female genitalia. In case you’re looking for a catch-all phrase for your little ones to use, we’ve compiled an extensive, but by no means exhaustive, list of the names we use to refer to our lady bits.

Well you just showed me yours, I am no longer incentivized. Does that thing still work?

Many here have a very low tolerance level for what they perceive as abnormal or odd people. They live in a very normative, tidy and neat universe, where a woman is not supposed to be raunchy, for instance. That, added with the general tendency of long-time A2Kers to gang on newcomers and their paranoia about departed members coming back under new IDs, explain in my view the pretty hysterical reaction to Whitebars.

@firefly,

I don't care much for English euphemisms or slang words for vagina, as I will never use them in conversation. Especially if they are creepy... I don't want to mess with my head anymore than it is already.

Languages also convey a worldview, a philosophy of life. French slang has a lot of words for vulva or vagina, some considered rude but most are very cute as far as French slang goes, and convey our general fondness of women and their sexual parts.

Like foufe, foufette, foufoune... I always think about that when I read "Foofie".

@Olivier5,

I'm fairly sure you are male, do you think the women in whatever country you live in, ask each other "Does my vagina make you uncomfortable"? I don't think it's raunchy, it is just an odd thing to ask another women. Think about it this way "does my vagina make you uncomfortable?", "no you silly bitch, my vagina will make your vagina quiver in fear".
Does that sound like a conversation women would have with other women? I've been a female all my life and I've never heard a woman say anything like that.
I doubt whitebar is a new member, he's just an old member with a new name.

Whitebars has a fair history here, starting with a bang on a first posted thread that was strange - have you read up? Reading all the posts may make you less sure of what you think is going on. Many take the person as another of nononono's morphs. I get why and agree. Then on the other hand, maybe not, in which case I'd agree with abnormal and odd, and not just for being raunchy, which I hate to let you know, many of us are, ourselves.

Well it takes a good deal of pumping, and even then it's a little flat. Once I had had enough, and just shoved it in the rectory, but it turns out that the church is evidently very much against it ... ... officially

@glitterbag,

I don't know the specifics of that particular conversation, but I can tell you a little story if you care...

In my youth I was fortunate enough to live upstairs from a hive of 4 lesbians. They immediately adopted my male roommate and I as their pets, would constantly abuse us verbally. We were young introvert idiots, nearly virgin, and mesmerized by the power of the vagina, as Whitebars would put it...

And yes, they would used such words all the time. E.g. of a casual conversation over the phone stuck in my neurons forever: Yes darling... I miss you very very much. See you soon my love... I lick your vulva, okay?

We ended up spending many evenings in their flat and Nathalie the hive queen dated my roommate for two years after that... :-)

Well played sir, I doff my hat. I know when to yield to a more devious smart ass.

@ossobuco,

I saw her first thread, and posted on it.

Such extreme feminists do exist. There is no reason in my mind to doubt what she says she is. Just because she is shocking doesn't mean that she is a sock-puppet. Many young people find it funny to be shocking, especially when it ruffles some feathers... Especially on the internet, where everything goes.

And to me, this place does come across as anti-love/sex. When I first came here, I was surprised that a joke posted by Spendi on the "bad jokes" thread would get voted down. I asked why and someone told me that it was sexual, hence frown upon... Here is the joke:

What does one behaviorist say to another after making love?

"It was nice for you. How was it for me?"

Quite mild in my book.

In real terms, I find it difficult to imagine the average woman making such a statement. If such did occur, then my guess is the female is an exhibitionist with a mental disorder; she might be a person afflicted with the compulsions to attract attention in an uncharacteristic manner.

"Vagina" and "penis" are anatomic, medical terms. Anyone who's shocked by their use is on the prudish side of things.

Whitebars is evidently not the average US heterosexual middle aged white ladylike woman... She's something else. But to think that because she says shocking things, she must then be a man, is IMO quite dismissive of men...

That surprises me, that spendi joke being nixed because it was re sex. Certainly mild, so I doubt it.
Maybe it was simply anti-spendi, who could get on nerves.

I won't go on about Whitebars, if you have read up.

I had thought of "Whitebars" as a troll. It never dawned on me whether the troll was male or female. I was thinking about the post I responded to, and not thinking of men in a dismissive manner. I would never put men down unless he acted in such a manner as for me to do just that.

Btw, do you know "Whitebars" personally, like outside the virtual world? I ask because you seem to be so certain this poster is who she says.

IMNSHO Whitebars hasn't posted anything particularly shocking.

Whitebars posting style does strike some posters (including me) as not sounding like a woman but like someone attempting to post as a woman but getting the details just slightly off (or badly off in some cases).

I have to admit I've been amused by some of its takes on what being a woman is like. Hard to take it seriously.
