Erotic synonyms
I was reading through the very helpful "Writer's resources" section and came across this astoundingly good idea from Whispersecret: The Erotic Thesaurus - For when Roget's just won't do.

I think this deserves to be updated with additions from all the authors, as I for one would find it very useful. These are Whispersecret's synonyms with as many as I can think up added on.

MALES

balls – ballocks, bollocks, crown/family jewels, gonads, love sack, nads, nards, pebbles, rocks, nuts, nutsack, sack, scrotum, testicles
cock – bone, boner, dick, erection, genitals, hard-on, hose, joy-machine, knob, lance, lovepole, manhood, meat, member, organ, pecker, penis, phallus, pole, pork sword, prick, rod, root, sex, shaft, spear, staff, stem, tool, weapon, wood
glans – bell-end, bulb, crown, head, helmet, knob, knob-end, mushroom tip, tip

FEMALES

clitoris – bud, bump, bundle of nerves, button, clit, clittie, joy button, nub, nubbin, pearl, pleasure button
lips – creases, folds, labia, nether lips
nipples – areola, buds, nips, peaks, tips
pussy – axe wound, beaver, box, bush, cleft, crease, crevice, crotch, cunny, cunt, entrance, fuckhole, gash, genitals, glove, groin, hole, mound, muff, opening, pudenda, quim, slit, snatch, suezie, twat, vagina, vulva
tits – boobs, bosom, breasts, chest, cleavage, dugs, globes, jugs, knockers, mammaries, melons, mounds, rack

BOTH SEXES

ass – arse, back door, backside, batty, behind, bottom, bum, buns, butt, buttocks, cheeks, derrierre, rear, rear end, rear entry, rump, seat
come (noun) – cream, cum, ejaculate, honey, jism, jizz, juice, milk, nectar, secretions, seed, semen, sperm, spunk
come (verb) – arrive, blow, climax, cream, cum, ejaculate, explode, finish, get off, jet, peak, spend, spray, spurt, squirt
masturbate - diddle, fiddle, finger, fondle, jack-off (male), jerk-off, jill-off (female), play the one-stringed banjo (male, very British), wank

Probably missed out a ton of really obvious ones, so if anyone knows of any that I've missed, reply and extend the list.

Whoops

Sorry just realised I posted this twice. I'll try and get rid of the unregistered one.
 
...tempting...

choose 5 from each category and put it into the 300 MW... i dare ya *wicked wink*
 
Exactly, MW. I am keeping my list exclusive to words/phrases that I think are usable. I have a printed erotic thesaurus that has thousands of entries, but I would only ever use about 3% of them.

For instance, for "erection" they have listed: crimson crowbar, rock python, and tube of meat, among others.

I've encouraged people to send me their suggestions for additions, but I'm going to be hard-nosed about adding only those which I think have a good chance of making it into your average story.

Earl, thanks for the nod here. :) You have a great idea. Each person can keep their own version, adding whichever synoyms they think they'll use. My list can just be the base on which you build. :)
 
thanks and an overdue apology

I dont know how to make this read by any more people. But if you would like to paste this somewhere else please do so.

In my desire to be myself I took some not so nice swipes at you and I do apologize. I am not about to change but I am sorry if anything I said or did hurt you. I expect your answer to be along the lines of, "I would have to care what you think and i dont." Nonetheless I do apologize. We do not have to agree to be civil to each other. That is all I wanted to say. That and thank you for not taking offense at the crack about the comedy with the words that was not meant personal but some of them are hilarious.

We will always be the teacher and the story teller probably always at odds but I promise to be nicer in the future. It is not necessary that you do the same. I will try to make allowences for the fact we dont speak the same language ma'am
 
No offence taken. I did consider putting "throbbing love machine" in there to see whether anyone took it seriously. I know quite a few of them are terrible and I wouldn't use half of them (quite often I write a sentence in my stories, look at it and delete it immediately, shaking my head in disgust at the fact that I just wrote that).

The whole point of including some of those which I myself wouldn't use was to give a erotic thesaurus for everyone. If I wanted to have one just for me, then I wouldn't have shared it with you here. It was just a thought to see if everyone could pick up some nice words for their stories.

Incidentally is "pudenda" not used in America? I just never see it in anyone else's stories.

imo pudenda and quim are british sayings...

bollocks, your pork sword is pressing my pleasure button, derrierre
 
but

if you want play my pink piccolo i will have to choke the chicken, or spank the monkey.
 
Hmm, seems like a pretty good place to insert a shameless plug.

Actually I am dissatisfied with my how-to, "I Pushed My Pud Up Her Poop-Chute," because I didn't address the point that even though I personally am not aroused by certain words, SOME of the more-tolerable ones have their place in erotic fiction. Needless to say, I got hammered in the feedback. Taught me to be a little more verbose if it leads to clarity.

Anyway, yeah. Stupid words. Ruin the mood. Nuff said.

sweet beautiful quint, never enough said words are our life.

Says the man who started the "300 words or less" post?
 
Mystery Writer, there was no need to apologize. I was surprised to see you had done so. I took no offense whatsoever. The "silly" synonyms were not on my original list, I think.
 
it goes for more than that

The apology had to be public and for more than the list. I found out something in all of these last few threads. You and I disagree. I am a lot more vocal of course. And a probably a lot more public in both my argument and my apology. I still believe the same things but I learned something from the threads I am writing on. Something I think you should know.

You and I disagree on almost everything and that is fine. However you do have integrity. I am not sure there is much of that anywhere in the world. Every time something comes up almost to a man the writers here try to be politically correct, to straddle every fence.

So for not trying to be everything to everybody I salute you. Last I heard writers were supposed to have a point of view and defend it. But then hell I’m not a writer so how would I know. No laughing this time a sincere apology for harassing you.

But genius is a little much....
 
Re: it goes for more than that

I appreciate your gesture, even though it was unnecessary. Disagreement doesn't warrant an apology. I certainly won't apologize everytime you and I disagree. I don't expect you to either.

Thank you for acknowledging my integrity. It's something I value highly. I respect you as well for your ability to keep our disagreements civil. For the record, I abhor political correctness.

I do know I often come off as arrogant. The confidence I have in my intelligence is both my strength and my weakness. I struggle to balance between being a know-it-all and being smart. Often you people here get the former, partly because my tone of voice isn't here to help soften my words.

Also, I only think of myself as a genius in the privacy of my own mind and with other people who are as knowingly high-handed as I am (like Muff!). I would never publically declare myself a genius. ;)
 
ah

It is not nearly as exclusive a club as you think WS. We all think we are genius. Now damn, I am stumpted didnt know how to make that plural. I am sure someone will be kind enough to explain it to me,

I think you just did....
 
Well shucks, MW, ain't nothin tricky bout that thar word. It be "geniuses," and boy howdy am I one of 'em.

Wow...more sleep highly recommended.

Whisper, much of the feedback I received on "Poop Chute" was that I projected a serious superiority complex. Didn't really intend to, but at the same time I know how it got in there. I DO believe that if you use some of those words, you are a moron. I'm unofficially 'prenticing myself out to you and Muffin so I can learn how to edit better, but in the meantime I have my share of intelligence. What I need to develop is patience.
