I had the same exact problem, Steph. In fact, I think someone ended up telling me!
Yeah, I think that ultimately I had to ask someone (with great sheepishness).
Mal: Well said. Wasn't that well said, Zoe? Zoe: Had a kind poetry to it, sir.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[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.

Tep is me. Again. Poor Tep. But that must be it, for the woman's name thing. One last way that I'm still vanilla is I can't remember saying it ever.

because I pronounce "clitoris" as clit-er-is, with maybe a faint stress on the first syllable.
That's how I pronounce it, though I don't think I've ever used the word in a conversation. Plus the standard porn reference is to the clit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My mother's middle name is Delores. Well, half her middle name. The other half is Delrio. I don't think anyone's said it out loud in decades.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
{{{{{-t}}}}} My thoughts are with you and your family.
Not too long ago, I noticed all the women in my family (grandmothers, mom, sisters, nieces) all have names that end it "-ee" sounds. It's a tad creepy.

I thought it was the pearly centre? Or, alternately, her little nubbin of fun?
It's been a while since I read porn, I admit. At least the stuff with chicks in it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

What is even happening?
Teppy, I think you say it correctly, and I think that, because when I first the word clitoris, I assumed it sounded more like Delores, and was surprised to hear it pronounced more like CLIT-er-iss.
