Do you trim your "lady garden"?

True, Ana! "Pudendum* means, literally, "a thing of which to be ashamed" in Latin, but has been used to refer to the genitals since about the fifteenth century. Not exactly a euphemism in the truest sense of the word, though!

I think those are euphemisms as well...

I don't know.

Please excuse euphemism nether regions. Should that be female pudenda or pudendum?

If people don't want to discuss the issue, why look at the thread in the first place? The title was not in the least ambiguous, unless people really thought it was a sort of gardener s question time!
Incidentally Suzied ,I read the article in the times too. It suggested that older folk should not feel obliged to follow the current fashion for pornification of the nether regions ( my words not the Times),but settle for a 'bikini line' do.

No tears from me! A wry smile, perhaps.

Having fun, kiddies? It all sounds very jolly on here, a bundle of laughs. Tears before bedtime, I predict.

Jingle, I haven't been told to go to bed since I was about nine, a few years after I stopped using baby talk to describe parts of the body.

Hm - doesn't take much to amuse some minds!

Doubled up!

Go to bed!

Why?

Laugh !!

Good job I am not feeling sensitive tonight! (Or any other night!)

Gracesmum - I am sure you know who Nonu means! The usual target.

NO!!!

Bit sensitive tonite aren"t you /

Can they Nonu?
Are you by any chance having a pop at me for picking suzie up on choosing the wrong word (or her iPad's predictive texting) Is it pedantic to avoid confusion?

According to absent, feetlebaum has used the correct biological term - so the thread title should have been 'Do you trim your mons?'!

I wonder how many replies that would have generated...?

Agreed Suziied , some people can be a bit pedantic though !

Goes with the territory I guess !

That's predictive text for you! Why can't we use fun / amusing terms for body parts, we don't use the "correct" terms all the time do we?

Suzied I suppose you meant titillated and NOT titivated ? My Scottish granny always used to talk about getting "titivated" when she was dressing to go out. I do not think she would have thanked you for suggesting she was "titillated"!!

Google them, Nonu, if you don't know them.

Hasn't Feetlebaum already done so?

Did you know that ancient Egyptian artistocracy, especially the Ptolemys and Cleopatras, shaved and plucked all the hair from their heads and then covered them with wigs? There's nowt so queer as folks -but they're all queer about their appearance in different ways.

Using the correct biological terms !!

Why don't I start....what? I presume everybody knows the correct terms.
