Girls: what do you call it

I was wondering because my younger cousin has started asking her mother about what various body parts are, and she doesn't know what to call it.

Any I missed out in the poll just add below and if they get lots of votes I'll put a list in this post.

ummm, how old is this cousin? (you shouldn't call it certain things if she's very young - or ever actually in my opinion)

She's nearly 2 I think. I don't think it's very nice for little girls to call it a vagina, and when I was little my mum called it a fanny which is kinda outdated now. I don't know what I use now I'm older, obviously if I was talking to a doctor I'd use the proper word but otherwise I never really talk about it seriously, so it would depend on the context.

I usually call it fanny for some STRANGE reason... :confused:

Thats what I called it when I was a little girl and thats what I'll be telling my kids to call it (thats of I ever have any kids...)

But pussy is cool as well... the others remind me of hair and smells... ergh... not pleasant...

Well my niece who is 4, started calling it her front bumby when she was 2ish, now she calls it her ladybumby.

I was one of those very embarrassing children that always overheard things i shouldn't have and at three years old loudly announced to the health visitor that women have vaginas and men have penises, my mum was mortified to say the least :rolleyes:

Fanny, i hate any other word for it:| especially pussy. What a vile word. And the word c*nt i use all the time in place of "people" eg. "there's no c*nt out tonight" or "where's everyc*nt".

By papal decree, everyone should henceforth refer to it as "The Miraculous Geraldo and the Flying Tigers"

Awww that's so sweet :smile:

I don't think you should tell a child any of the words which are on the list really.....they all seem quite rude- bearing in mind that they may say it when they are not with you, at someone elses house, in front of people etc.

I can't remember what I was told it was called.... but a nice child friendly word would be appropriate me thinks. Ladybum is quite a cute one.

Minge is the most horribel word ever!
C*nt isn't appropriate for a 2 year old, and I wouldn't say pussy was either!
Fanny's alright.
What a weird post... I should be revising!

what's wrong with just calling it 'vagina'?
or vadge, or pussy?
There are so many terms for it, some offensive, some euphemistic. Let her take her pick, and choose whatever, er, appeals most.
Slash, cooter, beaver, meat sandwich, love canal, growler, gates of heaven, fish taco, hatchet wound.

Oh, and 'cunny' is also a term for it. Rabbits used to be called 'coneys' (pronounced 'cunny') but to stop vulgar associations (at the same time 'cunny' was widely used to mean vagina), it got changed to 'bunny' and has stayed that way ever since.

My mum referred to it as your 'bits', but I learnt the word 'tuppence' at school, which is better.

I cant remember what I called it! But I would say for a two year old something like tupence or front bum is the best thing. Some of the words on the list could be taken the wrong way by people if they heard her saying some of them.
