I always knew it would come to this ...

[livejournal.com profile] pingrid  and I have been discussing terms for the penis. For some absurd reason we thought it would be a good idea to put together a list of international euphemisms. If anyone is interested in helping, it would be delightful if you could suggest a few terms. Our ideal format would be something along the lines of:
Percy: affectionate, mostly non-sexual references. 'Put your percy away, Percy.' UK
Donger: basic euphemism, mostly used in idiomatic phrases. 'It's dry as a dead dingo's donger out there.' Australia

Non-English terms are very welcome. Private names for those penes closest to my flist should be held off for another conversation, preferably after the consumption of much alcohol.*

I'm hoping that one of you provides something of sufficient curiosity that I can pretend this is a matter of academic  interest ...

*Local and regional terms are encouraged. 'I call mine Fang' is discouraged.

I think most of mine will be repeats

Schlong, dick, pecker, cock, prick are all pretty exchangeable. I think dick is more polite without being all official and saying 'penis.'

Cock is probably the 'roughest' of the group above.

Wood, boner, hard-on, stiffy are all used for an erect penis. All pretty tame, really.

Pee-pee or wee-wee is used for little kids. (though wee-wee might be the peeing action… I don't have kids, but I think those are both used.)

Testicles are often – nards, balls, juevos,

And yeah, you have package, junk, jewels for the entire set or organs.
