I call it vagina, same goes for penis. I don't care for slang when it comes to body parts
i feel so strongly about this!!! how do you create an open dialogue with your children about their bodies (and what is appropriate when it comes to who is allowed to see or touch their bodies) if you can't call the parts by the correct name?
sexuality is not something i believe we should joke about AT. ALL.
Oh, I won't be saying vag to my kids. I believe in proper terminology, for sure in that situation. I mean I say vag around the house, like "my vag feels weird." I don't call it that to the Dr. either.

Yes, because I fully intend on telling my baby boy that his penis is called a dong- which is what I normally call them. The way I speak around DH or friends is most certainly not the way I will talk to my children- especially when trying to explain something to them.

As long as a child knows no one is supposed to touch their choochie, peekachu, vagina, p-bird, pee-pee, or penis, what does it matter what a 3 yearold calls there privates?
Of course I'll tell them the proper terms, but if my child feels more comfortable saying any of these, (like I did as a child) I won't correct them (as long as they know the real word for it)

because if your child walks up to a teacher, doctor or police officer and tells them someone touched their "pikachu" they aren't going to know WTF they're talking about.
And proper names matter when pressing charges for child molestation.
and there is a large difference in a child knowing the names but choosing something else (as they would most likely be able to use the real names when pressed) and calling it a cutesy name because mommy and daddy do.

As a former teacher and day care instructor I would get lots of different names (and working with 4-5 year olds it comes up a lot!) but would mostly understand what they are talking about. If not I would have him/her explain. A teacher would not just drop it if a child said "someone touched my pikachu, or whatever..." they would most likely ask a follow up question. I personally believe that kids should know the correct termanology but using slang is fine also. Especially when it's adults to other adults. It's like some kids have to go potty, #1 or #2, pee and poop, or to use the bathroom... Different people use different words, and MOST of them are pretty well known.
i don't think i ever talk about it outside of talking to or answering questions from my DD...i guess i'm weird, but i would *never* tell someone that my vagina felt weird...even DH, not that i think there's anything wrong with it, i just would never do it myself
Really? You never talk about your vagina to your husband? Do you talk during sex?
Maybe I'm weird, but my DH and I talk about it all the time ;-)

Oh, Meeeeow to some of you ladies! I think this OP was made in jest to see what we refer to "it" amongst our gf's. This is supposed to be fun for cryin' out loud.
I personally say hooha quite a bit, as well as vaj. For a man- one-eyed monster. ;p
I call it whatever it is I'm talking about. Vagina, clitoris, labia, etc.
I am not a child and can use grown up words.
Yeah right, you know you say "bearded clam" like it's going out of style
I say Vag, pronounced "vaj"
Well, I'm going to teach Raquel to call hers "hooha two times Tuesday", so she'll understand that women who put out on first dates get married faster, especially if those dates are on Tuesdays.
Mine is called Zazu from the Lion King. My right boob is Simba and the left is Nala, because I'm a hoar who wears low cut tops, and my right boob falls out a lot, and thusly obviously just can't wait to be king. Zazo is a delicate bird, who can get wrecked by DH's helicopter of love, and so I sing "Nobody Knows" when I feel like I've been pounded into the bed/floor/couch.
You're all welcome for that.

I recommend karaoke during the boinking. The more dramatic the musical, the more boys get into thrusting (duh) . I would stay away from Sweeney Todd references though, because any time you eat a hot dog in front of your DH after that he will probably cry and start to tremble.

I'm not really sure. I mean... normally, I'd just use the actual terms. If something comes up in really casual conversation with DH or in any situation where I'm not sure what the other person is comfortable saying (ie: a friend talking about pregnancy), I might just say 'down there.'
The only time I say anything frufru is online... I'd probably type vag, or I might use whatever other term is being used/was used in the thread. IE: If the OP is talking about her lady parts, I'd likely reply using 'lady parts' but in quotes.

I pretty much call it my vagina, occasionally it's my vag. It's my hoohah if I'm being joking around with my friends. A penis is a penis, I have a much easier time calling it a penis than anything else.
