stump
in a psychology of sex class in college, the teacher, a middle aged woman, on the first day told us to write down every word we had ever heard for the male and female genetalia.......when done, we noticed that every word that was slang for the male denoted power, and was in no way derogatory. However the female list......was totally negative, and evoked thoughts of weakness, and negativity...(think about it).
Our first assignment was to think of a name for male genetalia that evoked the kinds of feelings that current names for male genelatia do........
They all sucked, except for one by a young girl.......who stood up to use her word in a sentence and said
"Hey ladies, let's go find us some STUMP tonight!"
Since then, it's been one of my fav words......
It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story...
