What do you call your whatsit?

With my brow so low I can barely read what I type, I want to know how refer to your genitals. A real-life conversation revealed a joyous range of terms and some strongly felt preferences, and so I wonder if the denizens of the 'Lith would share.
Have any childhood euphamisms sustained? Do you favour a no-nonsense medical approach? Will anyone own up to employing a proper noun? Is this a deeply personal and inappropriate question?

I'm a cock man myself. Although - on the soft - I'm rather fond of todger.

Mine has always been refered to as sans à-coup tissant. No idea what it means though.

A little embarrassing, but I will bear it and share (because it makes me laugh, now)...

When I was a little girl, my mother taught me to call my private female area, a "bogey".

Make all the golf jokes you want...I am still one over par for the course.

I refer to my male bits as "Groucho." All it really needs is the glasses...

Just "the kitty."

and mine is enegmaticly called "the boy"

Telegram Sam...

Depends. I don't really have a word for the whole gubbins, "rude area", "ladies' triangle", "bits" etc. I tend to differentiate between vagina ("vagina" or "vadge") and clitoris ("clitoris" or "clit"). In sexual contexts, I usually refer to "my cock", or say "erection" or "stiffie", but occasionally I will say "cunt".

My sister calls her husband's knob a "cockerel", which I think is cute.

I'm not entirely sure what this thread is about, but I have a nasty feeling that it is thoroughly regrettable... I will consult the ladies at the WI.

(actually, am not sure I refer to the relevant bits as anything)

Most distasteful...

Well, precisely. It's not as if you'll lose it on a brisk walk through dark woods and have to call its name to summon it back to your side. Tsk tsk.

On a bad day: "Thishasneverhappenedbeforehonest".
