Perkier than tits, and way less droopy than boobs. Melons are right out. I don’t want _pointier_. That sounds angular, like you can cut yourself on them. Unlike _boobs_, which sound _smooth_ and _soothing_. “Hey, man, that looks like a bad cut. How’d you hurt yourself?” “I was playing with some tits and got careless.” “Better stick it between two boobs.” _Titties_ is even worse. It’s a _diminutive_. I don’t like diminishing boobs. ---

You guys, what about breasts? I think breasts is a perfectly lovely word. Breasts breasts breasts. ---

Cock and pussy. Pretty boring. ETA: Oh yeah, tits all the way. Although, one guy (the 4.5 hour away booty call) once referred to the back door as “Poo Bay,” when he inquired if he could drop anchor in it. I thought that was hilarious. ---

Most of these words would have me giggling too hard to get hot and bothered. Or any nickname, I think, that’s not a dirty slur. The bedroom is definitely one area where the c-word (His and Hers edition) is encouraged. ---

My breast are referred to as “my breasts” or “my ta-tas”… if we’re in a goofy mood, “breasties” or “chesticles” (although I’ve named them Mae and Marilyn after two silver screen greats…) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-do-you-call-your-genitals-what-about-your-partners/501385.md?page=2)
