When you were a kid...

What did you call your lady parts?

What did you refer to passing gas as? Would you have your child(ren) call it the same thing or something different?

Re: When you were a kid...

  • My mom taught me to call my lady parts my "naked". I'm planning to use correct names with future children but we'll probably also refer to them as "private parts".

    I don't remember what passing gas was called, I was always really embarrassed by talking about that.

  • I don't remember what I called lady parts.. Farts were Foofs.

    My cousin's kids call their lady parts their "business" which I kind of like because it instantly conveys the whole Not YOUR Business idea. lol. Plus I can't stop giggling at the memory of my little cousin lifting up her shirt, and her mom told her to put her shirt down because it wasn't polite.. and my little cousin goes, "Mo-oooom, I was just showing my belly button.. not my business!"

  • We referred to them as private parts and farts. I have a friend that works for DCF and has stressed the importance of having kids call it something that the authorities can understand. She's had a lot of issues trying to figure out what happened to kids because they couldn't figure out what they were talking about.
  • I can't even remember. I don't think we talked about it much.

    I know that breasts were "boobies". That's about it.

  • It was a pootie and farts were poots. Looking back, I'm surprised that didn't confuse me.

  • Privates and pooted. I hate the word pooted. I would rather LO say fart versus pooted.

  • My mom has just informed me that my lady parts were called a "poo poo".  Huh?

    ETA: And farts were called "forfees" (four-fees)

    With DD we call them farts.
