British euphemisms for sex

Jump to newest

Living on the other side of the pond called the Atlantic Ocean, I enjoy reading the frank discussions in the forums. I have learned so many new British euphemisms, “rogering” for one. I hope to return the favor some day and share some Yank terms, as soon as I figure out which ones are unique to us.

Thank you one and all. I see we do share some terms - bonkiing, muff diving (a favborite sport of mine), nookie (that is an old one). Here's an old one "knocking boots". Anyone familiar with it on your side of the pond?

I may as well ask now: Is the above the meaning of "rogering' (and who was that Roger?)

"Sowing oats.....

Actually, the exact origin of the word is not known. The earliest known usage of the word in English is around the 1400s.

Though it is similar to a word in Old German and one in Norse.

I'm not sure there was a 'Roger' but the name means something like "man with long spear" so I have always assumed the term comes from that.

Thank you. If I ever used the term, I didn't wish to embarass myself if it meant something entirely different

Need to know basis

Sorry I can't join in with the expressions...mine are all French!! But if you are interested by the origin of the F word...here is what I found, whether it is the only explanation I guess not:

In ancient England a person could not have sex unless you had consent of the King (unless you were in the Royal Family). When anyone wanted to have a baby, they got consent of the King, the King gave them a placard that they hung on their door while they were having sex. The placard had F.*.*.*. (Fornication Under Consent of the King) on it.

As for the origins of "the F word": That acronym is believed to be an urban legend. (But quite believeable)

Welcome to the forums!

I remember reading somewhere about Kenny Rogers having a restaurant called Kenny Rodgers Chicken - something that with a carefully placed apostrophe probably wouldn't have got a big clientele this side of the pond! (May be an urban legend though)

I used to work with a lovely lady from your side of the pond, and there were many misunderstandings with our common language! We exchanged pictures of bumbags (UK) and fannypacks (US) and she was once most shocked when the security guard offered to "knock her up in the morning" as it didn't mean give her a knock on her hotel room door to wake her up! Oh, and on being told not to get her knickers in a twist she responded that she hadn't worn knickers since she was a child (they were short pants to her, underwear to us)

Yes, there once was a chicken restaurant known as Kenny Rogers Roasters.

Thanks to my enlightenment on this forum, I will never be able to meet another Roger again w/o a smile coming across my face

Beavering away in the UK may mean working hard - though I imagine it would have different connotations over the pond. Mind you, the term 'beaver' is now pretty much accepted here for a woman's genitals.

On another note - students here who may ask for a rubber would ask for an eraser in the US. To ask for a condom they may ask for a 'Johnny' (although that is probably a little old now). I just tend to think of them as condoms or durex.

Yes, we use the term beaver similarly, as in beaver shots - one of the most common poses the more adventuresome ladies post with their profiles.

Until recently, there was a nearby Beaver University. They had to change their name to Arcadia Univ, something less salacious to appear in web searches (or as we generically refer to them, google searches)

I'm not familiar w/ the term "eraser, but I may have heard condoms referred to as "johnny"; "rubber" is the most common term we use.

Durexx and Trojan are the most popular brands of condoms over here. Years ago, the euphemism "prophylactic" would apear on the package; now they call a condom a condom

No - I meant that in order to rub out a mistake in pencil a student would ask for a rubber. It doesn't mean a condom here!

Also - to beaver away means to work hard here.

It's a common. Myth I'm afraid. There is no known definitive origin of the word.
