I knew about Lady Chatterley, but I've always wondered if that was a nudge-nudge, wink-wink thing (see the studly gamekeeper, heh heh) or the actual source.

Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I'm strangely hungry for pancakes and vanilla ice cream. AND I JUST HAD DINNER.
I blame all of you.
While we're on the subject, when did the term "John Thomas" come into vogue as a euphemism for a penis?
Talk about not wasting a Monty Python straight line!
Isn't it awfully nice to have a penis.
Isn't it frightfully good to have a dong.
It's swell to have a stiffy,
It's divine to own a dick.
From the tiniest little tadger,
To the world's biggest prick.
So three cheers for your willy or John Thomas.
Hooray for your one-eyed trouser snake.
Your piece-of-pork,
Your wife's best friend,
Your Percy or your cock.
You can wrap it up in ribbons,
You can slip it in your sock.
But don't take it out in public
Or they will stick you in the dock,
And you won't come back.
Thankyouverymuch!
I'm strangely hungry for pancakes and vanilla ice cream
mmm, crepes ...
Or was he using a folk term already in use there?
That's my guess. John and Thomas being very common names in England, plus men have a very predictable self-identification with their uh..."man-root." t /badfic nomenclature
It's swell to have a stiffy,
This is literally true.
"man-root."
Oh, god, no. Brain bleach!
Or "woman maker."
I recently read a romance novel that called it "his candied length." I was all, "Is that caramel sauce? Or a chocolate shell of some kind?" (And no, they weren't actually playing with foodstuffs or anything.)
Crap. My father just called me to let me know that he's been working on my taxes, and it looks like, if I actually report all my income, I owe $1400. (If I only report the income that I've got a W2 for, I get $180 refund.) I'm trying to look up more info on my university website about how to report this stuff, because that really doesn't look right. (If I don't get this figured out tonight, I'm going to file for an extension and talk to an accountant.)
his candied length.
WTF? I wouldn't want something called *that* anywhere near me. Ewwww.
