Talk:Sexual slang

message: I'm considering starting an article on this subject - how so many people use systems of bases (which are mentioned here), rungs (of The Ladders - some of my friend have parallel Sex and Relationship Ladder, with the "philosphy" that you should always be at about the same rung of both), levels, purity tests, etc.
I think this should be a more linguistic article, on the slang itself, with a companion article on the ideas that drive that slang. --대조 | Talk 12:37, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: If you're going to refer to systems of bases, do bear in mind that this is very much a US-centred notion. Here in the UK, very few people are aware of the literal meaning of 'fourth base', let alone any sexual one. Scaramouche 15:40, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

text: I know that scoring has that meaning in some places (most of the US?) but in my peer group (teenagers in Cape Town) it means first base, not fourth. --대조 | Talk 10:32, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

message: :A quintessential example is the slang term "fuck" for sexual intercourse.
Slang says: "Slang is the non-standard use of words in a language of a particular social group, and sometimes the creation of new words or importation of words from another language. It is a type of neologism."
"Fuck" is in no way a neologism: it's been around at least since the 1400s. So I suggest we either change this page, or Slang. 66.92.237.111 21:44, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  "The slang term 'fuck'" 

message: 'Fuck' is equated with American-Asian-Pacific domains, though, and is suggestive of active sexual legerdemain; "getting laid" is a more passive term and euphemism suggestive of sexual consort rather than sexual activity per se.  07:03, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

message: i have decided to take the old page  and move it (with minor revisions) to Wikipedia:Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense.

thread_title:  sexual slang in Wikipedia:Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense 

message: What? Wikipedia was known for its Sexual slang article! Is the list gone or is it just in list of sexual slang or similar? Yes no doubt this is a better article on the topic, but i wanted to see the list again! I remember we cracked a friend up while he was on the phone to his girlfriend by bringing up the page and highlighting 'vaginal stimulation' or something equally amusing.

thread_title:  Where'd the list go? 

message: I take issue with the following:
:The most universal kind of slur directed against women is that of whore (implying female promiscuity, which carries a strong stigma in patriarchal societies)
First of all, I dispute that "whore" can be substantiated as the MOST UNIVERSAL kind of slur directed against women. Secondly, the definition is incorrect, it implies prostitution, not promiscuity. Lastly, the stigma against sexuality (female or otherwise) does not occur in all societies and occurs in non-patriarchal societies as well. I suggest that this portion of the article be cleaned up a bit... I'll do it myself, but I wanted to make sure no one had any issues before I changed it, as it struck me as potentially a contentious edit. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 21:39, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No comments, so I've removed the relevant passage as unsourced. I left in a subsequent bit about insults to men, because it seemed to have sources (Aristophanes and the Hittite military oath). --Dante Alighieri | Talk 16:45, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Doesn't the list of sexual slang in the article go against WP:DIRECTORY? -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 13:58, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: removed. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 20:47, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

text: It just seems to be an endless list of words that fails WP:DIRECTORY's 1st point.  It is also a big vandalism target and is just essentially a less useful version of UrbanDictionary. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 10:15, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Well it has now been improved significantly. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 16:43, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of sexual slang 

message: In these two edits, I removed the entirely unsourced lists of slang. It's clear from the article history that these sections are merely targets for vandalism and assorted jackassery. I would not oppose the discussion of notable examples, but this page hasn't a whiff of proper sourcing. Since Wikipedia is not a dictionary, thesaurus, or directory, and isn't for things made up in school one day, I think it's best to leave out this content. — Scientizzle 18:57, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: That leaves inbound redirects pointing here for many terms which quite simply don't have a dictdef or even a mention on this page any more. I fail to see how this is useful. K7L (talk) 20:37, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
