The Big Book of Filth: 6500 Sex Slang Words and Phrases (Big Books Series) - Softcover

Visceral, raw, and utterly lewd and rude, these more than 6,500 off-color phrases provide a guided tour of sexual wordscapes. Categories include body parts (men's and women's); states of arousal and frustration; masturbation and orgasm; intercourse in a dazzling variety of positions and occasions; oral sex, kinky sex, gay and bi sex, promiscuity, virginity, prostitution, and many other commercial aspects of sex. The era of safe sex has brought a new, imaginative coinage of terms for contraception, venereal disease, and AIDS. Sources range from the latest street slang and popular music lyrics, to classical literary allusions, fascinating etymologies, and words that rhyme-all perfect for use in homegrown limericks and greeting cards. Bonus: George Carlin's famous 1970s "12 words you can't say on TV," along with their latest competitors. It's like a red-light district of language!
