Potato Salad Rule

Why can't we just use vagina to describe all that in casual conversation? It's not like there is a better word. Everyone knows what you mean when you say it.

"He punched me in the dick." Could mean just about anywhere on the dick, I'm not going to say someone punched me on the glans or the shaft or whatever.

What’s wrong with vulva?
- If I slap a woman that way I would be hitting a variety of parts of her body. When you say vagina everyone knows what you mean, it is already part of the common lexicon to use the word in this manner, most people are simply annoyed by this type of pedancy. So, unless I need to give a small biology lesson when doing something slightly kinky to, or about, a sex organ, I am just gonna say vagina, or some other euphemism. Box, vag, pussy, etc.

  *pedantry
  
  This is sublime.
  
  Thanks! I was getting worried nobody would get it 😁
  
  So many words and still it’s just plain ignorant if not stupid.
  
  Sick burn haha. I agree. It’s baffling that so many people seem to support that way of thinking tho.
  
  Eh. As someone who knows the vagina as the canal part, I'd expect that slapping it is a bit on the kinky side and involves toys.
  
  Slapping the vulva is a more common thing and doesn't require toys (unless you really need the rider's crop sting).
  
  In a general sense yes when a woman refers to her vag it can be slang for the whole kit and kaboodle. But then getting technical can be confusing. Mind you, I freak out when my recipe books have conflicts between their written instructions and illustrations. So it may just be me.
  
  Pussy wasn't great as a colloquialism even before Trump ruined it. Though now I think of feminist punk rock and art like Pussy Riot and Hole.
  
  People can call it whatever they like as long as everyone involved is cool with it. Refer to it as a penis, fine by me. I am just saying that this is a very, very, casual conversation and use of the word. Those actively concerning themselves with others using a word in a non-technical manner are just mildly annoying pedants. Pedants who likely use a word in a lay person's manner, that is technically incorrect according to a professional or academic lexicon, probably without even realizing it.
  
  Pedancy... giggle
  
  Yeah, was going for the controversial form of pedantry given the subject.
  
  Because people are desperate to feel superior, for some reason it's even more intense than normal with anything involving women or sex - I guess it makes people feel like expert sex havers if they can one up someone on female sex organ words?
  
  Like I get correcting people if the only, or most common, use of a word is different enough from how they are using it it will likely cause real confusion. Doing it with tact is a little more difficult. However, when you are correcting someone for a very common use of a word, and you are in a casual setting, I can't help but think you want to prove some point of superiority.
- I must ask, nay demand, that from now on when referring to my testicles, they are referred to individually and as distinct entities to each other and the scrotum.
  
  Please do not kick me in the vas deferens.
  
  i mean, there's a bit of a difference between being slapped in the taint and in the nuts
  
  Stipulated without objection but I'm not sure what point you are intending to make. And, based on the logic in this thread, you can't get slapped in the nuts without surgically accessing them first and we should all start talking about getting slapped in the scrotum - which is still technically different than getting slapped in the taint, so whatever point you're making is safe.
There is a word for that, it's pussy. Vagina doesn't really work to describe the whole system.
- I'm fine with the word and thrilled with the thing itself, but a lot of people consider "pussy" a cuss or swear in the same manner that "dick" is. Is there a less provocative word you think covers all the bases?
  
  Cooter
  
  Ha! My dad called my mom his little cooter (Pseudemys genus) once while they were visiting a turtle pond. It wasn't endearing how he'd hoped, and was a long ride home.
  
  I'm sold, cooter it is.
  
  I don't think I've seen a man go "gasp Don't call it that I hate when you call it that!" to...basically any slang term the way I've seen women react to "pussy."
  
  Or how "pussy" is somehow a bad word that people don't want to say, but they still think and mean it, and will either use a cat emoji or say "kitty" instead which god DAMMIT can we keep a word that just refers to the four legged mammal that meows and not your crotch, Breightleigh?
Well, the vagina is part of the internal bit. The vulva is the external bit. See, we already have the language for this, it's just that it rarely is used.
There is a difference in sensation when slapping (not punching) different genital parts.

Vagina is not the name for the whole genital - calling the genital only after the part one is interested in is depersonalising, because the clitoris for example is just as important and because there's a whole person with needs and desires attached to that vulva, vagina or clitoris etc.
- Depersonalizing? What? Because I didn't treat your genitals like a medical textbook?
  
  I understand frustration that men and many women don't understand genital anatomy of women, but acting OFFENDED about it is just stupid. Educate, fine, but this is not some sort of affront to women.
  
  No see to really humanize people just read their DNA sequence off like a barcode.
- As a seperate person, my frenulum gets its own ballot this November.

You just flick the clit like you are flicking a bug from your arm.

Never quite understood genital impact play on its own, but that sounds really mean (not in a bad way). Like, I understand that when one's tied up, but just like that oof
- It's not something to surprise your partner with, thats for sure :) I don't like that against my glans but I like to get whipped and lightly bruised buttocks instead so each to their own. I just wanted to give an example of hitting the "vagina area" that didn't cover much impact surface area

i love that everyone is taking this so serious people start fighting about it

also, i do not like potato, salad or rules.

Rules bad, yes, but what did potatoes and salads do?
- they came
  
  except fries, potato chips and whatever those tiny stick potato things you put on a hotdog are called, theyre fine
  
  edit: i clicked the button to send before finishing typing
  
  stick potato things you put on a hotdog????????
  what????
  
  yah those pointy little things that taste like potato chips
  
  yeah that's not something i have ever heard of in my life before, you're gonna have to show an example because this sounds very strange
  
  okay that's wild, the entire thing looks like a plastic replica lmao
  
  but yeah i'd call those pommes pinnes because they look like a scaled down version of the chip brand:
  
  i was talking to my gf yesterday and apparently theyre called shoestring potatoes, its such a bad name

You just haven't met the right woman yet.

You seem experienced.

That edit is on point. Love me some potato salad.

found the ob/gyn

I also couldn't imagine how this would be done efficiently. The only viable angle seems to be that of punching but I am pretty sure most women wouldn't find pussy punching sexy

I’m imagining it’s like giving someone a high five, but from a high->low direction, her vagina acting as the other hand in this case. Sounds like it could sting...
- I simulated this movement in my head it looked like an acclamator class assault ship (mark I) landing on a planet.
  
  maybe if you stand behind the target and launch your slap from that position sort of diagonally down to up like you are calling someone with your hand.
