Links on Sexual Satire, Slang & Profanity
Sex Dictionaries, Glossaries & Lexicons

You can never have enough obscenity, slang and profanity, especially if you are one of our regulars - intrepid and insatiable verbivores who know no limits. For your pleasure and edification we offer the very best the Web has to offer.

Topics include what this host imagines to be your varied interests - anything tangentially relating to this site: language, word origins, etymology, profanity, sexual satire and parody, rude humor, free speech, and freedom of sexual expression. Strange bedfellows indeed!

Together, they make for a formidable bawdy of knowledge. Draw on it freely. May you never be at a loss for curse words!

Caveat emptor. We make no claims as to comprehensiveness or objectivity of site selections; they reflect our own personal biases and limited knowledge.

All links were alive and well as of July 2003. Report any outages directly to our Webmaster. Feel free to also suggest any relevant sites we might have overlooked.

C

Courtesan (W3)

cunt, Gropecuntlane (W3)

...
The Middle English form of "cunt" was "queynte", as it appears in the "Miller’s Tale" of Geoffrey Chaucer. This derives from a conflation of two Old French words, "coigne" ("wedge") and "cointe" ("known"), which descend respectively from the Latin words "cuneus" and "cognitus". Since the outer appearance of the female genitalia is wedge-shaped (recall the "delta of Venus" metaphor), the first half of this etymology is plausible. As for the "cointe-cognitus" part, it’s probably due to euphemistic prudery, whereby something taboo is referred to obliquely as "you know what".

Dildo (W3)

Etymology
The word "dildo" originally referred to the phallus-shaped peg used to lock an oar in position on a "dory" (small boat). It would be inserted into a hole on the side of the boat, and is very similar in shape and function to the modern toy. It is highly likely the toy takes its name from this sailing tool, which also lends its name to the "town of Dildo" and the nearby "Dildo Island" in Newfoundland, Canada.

Others suggest the word is a corruption of Italian "diletto" (for "delight").

The term first appeared in English language print when Ben Jonson's 1610 play, The Alchemist, was published in 1616. William Shakespeare used the term once in The Winter's Tale, also believed to be from 1610, but it was not printed until the First Folio of 1623. The phrase "Dil Doul," referring to man's penis, appears in the 17th century folk ballad "The Maids Complaint for want of a Dil Doul". The song was among the many in the library of Samuel Pepys. "Signior Dildo" is a 17th century poem by notorious libertine John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester.

"Olisbos" is a classical term for a "dildo", from the Greek "olisbos"; a "godemiche" is a dildo in the shape of a penis with scrotum. In some modern languages, the names for "dildo" can be more descriptive, creative or subtle, such as in Russian (literally "Phallic imitator"), Spanish ("Consolador", literally "consolation", "consolator") or Welsh ("cala goeg", literally "fake penis").

Saint-Valentin

L’écriture des noms de fêtes civiles ou religieuses pose des problèmes quant à l’emploi des majuscules et du trait d’union. Lorsque le nom ne comporte qu’un seul mot, la majuscule est de rigueur. Lorsque le nom comporte plusieurs mots, la règle générale est de mettre une majuscule au nom spécifique, celui qui vient préciser la fête dont il s’agit, et une minuscule au nom générique (par ex. fête, jour). Cette règle n’est toutefois pas toujours respectée et l’on observe des graphies différentes selon les ouvrages.
