So the other day Surreal said something like, "It's required that you have a cock to understand some jokes." and I admit, I had been drinking a bit and something occurred to me...

Personally, I think it might be required that you have a "dick" to understand (or better yet, be amused) by some jokes.

Why?

Now, this is just my opinion and clearly it's all subjective, personal and all that stuff - but for me, the word "cock" is either positive or negative.

Positive: umm... yeah. like that

Negative: You're a "cocksucker" (as in the insult)

In other words, it's either directly related to (usually really awesome) sex or it's a flat out insult.

Like the "c" word... only in that respect it's strictly an insult and always negative. In fact, if it were used in a sexual situation it would turn me off instantly.

Now... dick... it's almost generic to me. In fact, I'm often found muttering, "frick a dick!" under my breath when I'm irritated. I've also been known (more frequently than not) to call my husband a "dick" or to say something was a "dick move." It's not a turn-on but it's not a turn-off in the bedroom.

Penis - strictly for sex ed. talks with the kids.

Wiener... I honestly rarely ever use it.

In Summation:

Certain humor requires a dick just for it's sheer level of stupidity or testosterone (oops, being redundant, my bad)... and there are few things sexier than a rock hard cock.

I don't think I have ever used so many references to a penis in a blog post - ever!
