Gentlemen:
Under the section "Semen", you need to add the term "baby-batter".

Be assured that my friends and I will continue to scour the text to see if we can find more additions to the terms. It's great fun!

Hi,
To "poke" someone means to fuck them, but it would have to be a man talking.

"I'm gonna poke his wife"
Richard Dreyfuss
from the movie Tin Men

But if someone offers you some "poke" at a party, they're probably talking about Viagra.

... depending, I guess, on what kind of party it is.

To the author:
I just picked up my copy of BHH yesterday at my local independent bookstore and I'm enjoying it a great deal. So far my favorite is "hitchhiking to heaven" - such lush imagery!

I'm writing to correct a grievous error, though. On page 100, "polyfidelitists" is listed as a synonym for "swingers". Not true! Swingers are typically couples who engage in recreational sex, typically with other couples, and often anonymously. Polyfidelity refers to a form of multipartner marriage. The "poly" part of polyfidelity is abbreviated from "polyamory" or "polyamorous", a term referring to emotional and sexual ("sexualoving") connection to more than one partner at a time. The "fidelity" part refers to a commitment of exclusivity of those connections within the group. So, polyfidelity is neither anonymous nor recreational, and can refer to group marriage with any number of members (three being the most common), and often involves the usual marital trappings of home, car, mortgage and kids. Not at all the same thing as swinging.

Some people do claim that swinging is a form of polyamory.

What a fun book! Thanks for sharing this work.

Hello,
How I'd love to be living at the time when Rubens was painting portraits of his mistresses, when beauty was not synonymous with emaciation as it is now! "Rubenesque" is a term that I would like to hear more often; it is an endearing adjective to describe a gorgeous woman who is most definitely NOT thin.

Dear A.D. Peterkin,
Onion bag: Among some gays in Quebec (at least), the term applies to male genitalia.

And what about "copper coins"? I think I have heard this term for male nipples ...
