Penis. Now, honestly, what is wrong with this word?
Are we really as a society so frightened about sex that we must curtail our vocabulary? Didn't we all take health class, and didn't we all during that class learn how to say the words "penis," "vagina," "foreplay," and "intercourse?"

What is wrong with this society? Have we ever divorced ourselves from the early puritans? We are frightened of sex, and therefore, keep it under wraps only furthering our immature treatment of it in the media and interpersonally. I say it's time we start discussing sex more openly, and perhaps, the extreme suppression and extreme expression of sex in our nation will moderate.

2. My mother smacked me in the face once when I said penis.
I said penis in a very medical way, and I think I was talking about a dog at the time. I don't remember, but she freaked. She thinks that if you don't talk about something it will never happen. Diluded Freeper she is.

4. Locking.
This is more serious than the average Lounge sex thread, but still a sex thread.
