Cooter

What do you call yours? My friend Ashley and I say cooter all the time but I giggle every time I say it.

If you call yours vagina, please make up something more interesting. Vagina is a word for doctors. My new doctor is a hoot though, she probably does say cooter. "Climb on up and let's check out the cooter". Some would call that unprofessional but I'd actually rather have someone with a sense of humor doing that business on me.

When I was at her office yesterday the nurse asked me if I wanted a pap. I said no thanks, I don't like to mix my business. I had planned to go to my regular OB/GYN practice (that I haven't seen since I gave birth to Moggie four years ago) but then I realized that I actually don't have a regular practice. I was not prepared for a pap so I still declined but I may as well combine the business and have it done there. If I'm not having any more babies there's no need to go to that inconvenient office any more.

I've heard it called a vay-jay-jay, but for some reason that annoys me.

I think the most lyrical name I've heard is poonani, sounds like something Shel Silverstein would make a really cool poem about.

When I'm feeling down I just have to whisper furr-burger in my head and I get the giggles. (thanks be to Kevin Charnas)

You know I call it "cuckoo" but have also called it cooter before! LOL

LMAO at "furburger". I haven't heard that in ages.

Yep I say "cooter" but have been known to also say "hoo-ha" on occasion.

I think my favorite has to be "whisker biscuit." I can't help but giggle!

My Mom and I say coo coo (for cooter) or pussy if we want to be really vulgar. But that is behind closed doors. My husband is completely disgusted with me if I say really raunchy words. So I like to throw them out there every once in a while.

For my daughter we say tu-tu... That is what we called it when I was little. My Mom started it. There's a story behind it but I couldn't give it to you. That got a little confusing when she was taking dance lessons.

I hate it when people make their little girls call it vagina. Because usually what they are referring to is not really their vagina but their labia, right? I mean the vagina is on the inside. Plus it just sounds disturbing.

Oh and I meant to say something about your doctor situation. So, the new female doctor you are seeing is your primary??? and not an OBGYN???

Yes your primary can perform certain tests to cover the main things.....
But primaries know a little about everything and specialists know a lot about their field. If you really had something going on with all of the female parts, I would think you might want to go back to the OBGYN.

Just my opinion......

Oh, I think the old Cooter is fine. Even with the boob deal, she sent me out immediately. I probably still want to go to the gyno because I can't get over the part about mixing my business.

We've been known to refer to it as "mommy parts" "front butt" "hoo haa" or "waa hoo" and "my area". My sisters and I all referred to our privates as our front bottom. I'm inclined to go with that with my twins, though hubby HATES it. I think he'd rather say "front bottom" that "vagina", though.

Wow, I learned some new words! I had never heard "furburger" or "whisker biscuit." We were taught to call things by their proper names ("vagina") or in general terms ("privates") growing up. Now, it's known as the Cootch.

And, I can't believe I'm admitting this, but sometimes it's called "The Angry Cootch." I can't remember the story behind it, but my husband knows better than to mess with the Cootch when she's angry!

Stacy said...

I've been meaning to comment on this... my boys have taliwhackers. Their mom has a pollywolly.

My grandma taught me to call it a lucy growing up.

I need to know something totally off subject though...did a tornado just hit the Georgia Dome? Our MS State bulldogs are playing and Mr. AFRo had me watching as the dome shook. Let me know on that...

We have been saying "Lady Garden" with a flourishing hand motion in front of the crotch.

With the little kids, we say Nay-Nay for girls and Pee-Pee for boys.

My 10 year old boy calls his wiener a guitar. I have no idea why.
