It was everything I could do not to laugh in his face, and chew on the inside of my cheeks, attempting to keep a straight face.....

If I stub my toe, I will cuss a streak so blue that mechanics in the vicinity will say, "Hey, hey, hey! You wanna watch your language? There are welders around here!"

And he thinks I will use an improper term to be *prudish*? Or that other goat ladies, who habitually stick their hands up goat vaginas during kidding season, inspect penis tips for infections, etc., are being *prudish*?

HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

LOL!!

We goat ladies can be called many things, but prudish isn't one of them....

My best "goaty" conversation was with my father in law.... My husband is staying with his dad 5 hours away working & trying to get a house set up so we can move, so I only see him every 10 days....

During a goat rape fiasco, my father in law calls, but I can't answer, I've got my hands full.... Finish up & just as I'm putting the buck up he calls again, so I answer:

"Hi, hold on one sec..." Then to my buck I say, "Go on you filthy boy, you did good" as I put him back up.... Then I resume the conversation..... There is an odd pause & my father in law ask:

"If I may ask, just what are you doing right now?"

Me (a lil breathless): "Oh, trying to clean semen off my leg before it dribbles down the top of my boot, we had lil mis-fire"

FIL didn't say a word... I had to prompt him to speak, twice.... Then it dawned on me how it all came out so I had to specify GOAT semen & explain the whole goat rape ordeal...

Still not sure what disturbed him more.... The confusion at the begining of the conversation, or me giving details on goat rape & elaborating on how I got goat semen on my leg

Certainly no prudish goat lady at this house

I think it makes hubby uncomfortable during kidding season when I'm making 10 trips a day to stare at vulvas...lol

Yep, we knew men would read this thread. Heck, my DH probably already read it.

What this shows is that, so far, it seems that men prefer to use the low-class, cockneyed term to refer to the teats of an animal, and women prefer to use the scientific term.

Hmmm, I wonder if that was all started by some boys sent out to the barn in the 1700's to milk the family cow, and snickering over "tits"? That would be about right.

Of course, I have heard men use...ummm...more slang terms for vulvas/vaginas, and penises/pizzles on livestock, instead of the old, long-term, been-around-for-hundreds-of-years, PROPER terms for those bits of anatomy.

Yeah, I think snickering boys are involved...or men just liking to use the naughty slang terms for *something* that they think they can get away with.

Well, I'm a lady no matter where I happen to be. Proper Scientific terms are appropriate. Vulgarity is never appropriate. HooHaa and such would be a euphemism used to soften a scientific term.

If some one is using a vulgar term because they know it causes someone to feel emotionally uncomfortable, or embarrassed, that person is ungracious or maybe just a little mean. It would be time to grow up and be considerate of those around you.

This is, of course, not intended for anyone here. I don't think I've seen vulgarity used here. Well maybe a little bit

, but never in a hurtful way.

I believe that is one of the preferred, or at least very popular, terms.

Please feel free! Although spell-check doesn't seem to like it.

Dd19 tells me that I am four years old - so I guess in my case it is the inner kindergartener.... Hooray! I am so old I will never have to grow up!

All this reminds me of my friend asking the vet how long to keep a freshly castrated buckling away from the does. "45 days". What?!?! Oh man, I should have done this long ago! "OK, 45 days or until he.... ummmm..... well..... until he..... you know how bucks..... ummmmmm.... Until he........ Oh wait! I keep forgetting I don't have to watch my language so much around you ladies! Until an ejaculation!" ROFL!!!!
