OK. I still don’t get the reference in the ‘underwear is for suckers’ thread.
What the heck is Camel Toe or Cloven Hoof? Someone draw me a diagram!
“Camel Toe” is slang for the bulge on those women who are especially, uh, endowed. It is particularly noticeable with tight pants. (Ever see the “Camel Toe Annie” skit on SNL?)
Now, picture that, and picture a camel foot.
See where it comes from?
If you still need a diagram, I’m afraid you’re on your own there, JC.
Noun. This is what you get when your jumpsuits are too tight in the crotch area. Usage: “Britnet, perhaps you shouldn’t wear those size-four catsuits. They give you camel toe.”
Good God, I’m hysterical at work. 
My biker friend calls 'em “Helen Keller” pants.
“Hey, I see Jackie has her Helen Keller pants on”
wait for someone to ask what that means…
“You can read her lips”
(Yes, I know Helen Keller couldn’t read lips. He’s a big guy and I don’t really want to point this out. It’s still funny)
Zette
Ah. I guess when I was paying attention we used the ‘read her lips’ thing.
i usually refer to it as smuggling a yoyo
Ye gods, I feel dirty all over after looking at that pic you provided, Commander. I need to find some camel toe pics of Susan Sarandon or Cher right away to counterbalance the awful Nabokovian reaction I just had.
Or maybe I’ll just go look at it again, y’know, to make sure I’m really sufficiently ashamed of myself.
(Britney must go through a lot of baby powder, dressing like that.)
Want to prevent the dreaded camel toe? Use its natural enemy, the Rainbow Butterfly!

I’ve also heard it referred to as ‘the map of the mississippi.’ Yick.
Some time after having explained this phenomenon to my older sister, we were walking through a really nice hotel in downtown Kansas City. Suddenly, my sister grabbed my arm, pointed to a somewhat pudgy woman poured into an expensive pant suit, and began shrieking, “Look! Camel foot! Camel foot!”
I covered her mouth and quietly explained that it is camel ‘toe’ and that it is traditionally not the kind of thing one points out in such a dramatic and vocal manner. She still thought it was hilarious. And for the record, she was right about the woman. Boy, did she look uncomfortable.
I’ve also heard the term “moose knuckle”.
Here is another link showing Bitney Spears with Camel Toe:

“Camel-Toe Annie” is a Conan O’Brien creation, not SNL.
Chef Troy, thanks for the link for the Rainbow Butterfly. What a bizarre item! It looks like a feminine athletic cup. And it looks about as comfortable as one, as well. How bout it, ladies? Wanna wear one of those all day?
Only thing worse than a woman with camel-toe… a man with camel-toe.
I saw a very similar item at an adult store only it was called “the Hummingbird” and required 4 AAA batteries.
I must say I was intrigued.
Actually Helen Keller did read lips. She used her fingers.
Used…
…her
…fingers…
BWAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAA!
There’s a craps dealer at the Aladdin that I want to send one of these Rainbow Butterfly things to.
And spoil our fun? Shame on you, have you no respect for us dirty old men?

For kissing, lady, not for such contempt.”
