Hi guys...and gals...

I was over reading Adam Ant's story (the new guy...hehe) and he used a nick-name for "IT" that I've never heard before...he called it his "doodle"...

Is that a particularly Aussie term for it?

And, as a new poll, pray tell...what are YOUR fav terms for it, please?

Man calls his "Mr. Happy"

In Thai, of course...(Khun Dee-jai...)...hehehe

My parents blessed me with the wrong pet names for things. Almost every other kid had a willy. MY loving parents felt that was too "lower class" so I had a "whistle"

And at school I had no idea why people laughed at me!

Now a whistle gets blown! I wonder if, subconciously, they knew?

Rather like Tim's, I suppose, my parents called it a diddle. Related to doodle? I dunno. But to this day, if someone says 'I've been diddled,' I'm liable to get the giggles. Or diddles.

Incidentally, any idea why it's also called John Thomas? Who was he? Sounds Welsh!

Lady Chaterly's gardner was Oliver Mellors. They refered to his member as John Thomas and hers as Lady Jane. Was that original with Lawrence or is that a more common Brit tradition. In US it would only get used in context of DH.

I fancy JT goes back before Lady C (which was written when? 1920s?). My father used to refer to JT (after I'd outgrown my diddle, so to to speak), and I'm sure he never read Lady C. I suspect he'd picked up the name JT in his giddy youth, and her was born in 1890. God, it shows my age, doesn't it? Though he was fairly ancient when I was born.

The answer must be in a dictionary somewhere. But not one I've got.

...In these parts where I live, a man's, eh, doodle, is sometimes referred to as the "skin flute". It's slang of course, not really a legitimate term for that particular bit of anatomy.

PLAYING the skin flute is something most men do alone, but some enjoy doing it in the company of other flutists too I suppose. Smile

At the risk of offending (delighting?) one of our friends here, my wife calls it a "Charlie" - never asked why, I guess I was usually too distracted to ask. "Johnson" appears to be popular in the states.

This reminds me of a particulary humorous passage from the classic "Police Academy" movie (yes, the first one was really great).

"Back in my days, there were johnsons as far as the eye could see.", says one elderly police guy.

Commendant Lassard replies: "And what a lovely sight it was...!"


I'm actually pretty amazed that line was allowed in that movie, LOL.

Two of my favorite synonyms for "IT" come from the cinema.

One was in the movie "Monty Python's The Meaning of Life", in which it is referred to by many names (including my own favorite from that list, a "tallywhacker").

The other was in a film called "My One and Only", in which Henry Winkler (Fonzie on "Happy Days") plays a professional wrestler during the early days of televison. His best friend is a midget wrestler named Melvin (played by Herve Villechaize, Tattoo on "Fantasy Island"). In spite of his physical stature, Melvin is quite the ladies man; and that causes the wrestling promoter to say of him, "If his legs were as long as his schlong he'd be a basketball player!"

Actually, the title of the film was "The One and Only", and Herve Villechaize's character's name was "Milton" (hey, cut me some slack, guys; it's been almost a quarter century since I saw that movie!).
