There was a child in a daycare I worked at who had a rather nasty trike accident. She'd happily tell anyone who asked what happened (she was still sporting stitches and bruises) within earshot that she hurt her palms and her knees and her nose and her clitoris and urethra.

Which then got all the other kids asking.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The male possesses two testes, along the back, near the anterior ends of the kidneys. They are elliptical shaped and light yellow in color.

Each ductus deferens opens into a small bump, or papilla, which is on the dorsal wall of the cloaca. The papilla serve as the copulatory organ.

Scroll down for diagram.

Dear lord I am an information geek. Here's the dry, scientific lowdown on chicken reproductive anatomy. Yes, boy chickens have a penis. And actually, the end of the oviduct IS called the vagina. [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, sorry, Burrell. I forgot there was an Actual Issue. I don't see anything wrong with "butt" or "crotch," unless you think they're too vulgar for little kids? Bottom and, um, something else?

Tell her it's her batty and her pumpum. She'll cause any Jamaicans in the room to clutch their pearls and reach for their smelling salts, but what are the odds?

Hmm, the odds might be better than you'd think.

"Bottom" is our general catchall term. I think that's a safe one.

Also, I see we are ALL information geeks. Which, come to think of it, I knew.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

It's hard, because someone, somewhere would think whatever Franny calls them will be obscene.

Hoo-ha? It's unspecific, but cheerful!

Okay, then, if anyone faints, when you revive them find out where to get Tastee patties and harddo bread.

Unrelatedly: I'm wondering...venus.provocateuse.com? distaff.provocateuse.com? women.provocateuse.com? girlclub.provocateuse.com?

I need a name, people.

No worries. As issues go, it's minor. I mean, for me, the only real issue was having to stop myself from calling it her "cootch" as that probably *would* have raised a few eyebrows. I'm good with butt and crotch, and I figure that any caregiver or parent too modest to find those terms acceptable has bigger issues to deal with.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

My default term for the whole apparatus is, I am faintly embarrassed to admit, cooter or cootch, but my actual favorite terms are cunnie and quim.

After The Daily Show's report on Florida's Cooter Festival, I have a clear favourite in this race. "Why do you insist on sexualising vaginas?"
