- SEX**
- You mean CULO isn't really Spanish for "cool"?

-
- SEX
- Polite would be HACER AMOR or TENER RELACIONES SEXUALES,
- euphemistic would be ACOSTAR CON (go to bed with). Standard
- rude, COGER, is an exact equivalent of "to fuck" (though it
- really means "catch", so translate that word with extreme
- caution). See also "Doing It."
-
- BODY PARTS
- Polite for penis is PENE. A hard-on is called a PARADO
- (because it "stands"). This word makes the sign on buses,
- PRECAUCIóN, PARADAS CONTINUAS, a bit of joke). Extremely
- common is CHILE, a source of many puns. Among the inevitable
- multitude of others, some common terms for the PARTES NOBLES
- are: PáJARO ("bird," another source of puns and jokes), and
- PINGA (a general purpose word like "dick").
-
- Polite term: VAGINA. The most common crude term,
- equivalent to "pussy" is PANOCHA, which normally means
- unrefined brown sugar. Others include SARTéN (skillet), NIDO
- ("nest," for PáJAROS).
-
- The politest term for the breast is PECHO, often called
- PECHITOS. "Tits" is most directly equivalent to CHICHIS and
- a busty woman is a CHICHONA.
-
- Mexicans call the butt LAS NALGAS (buttocks), or the
- slangier NACHAS. A cutsier term like "booty," more used by
- women, is POMPIS. The anus is popularly expressed as CULO.
- Mexicans don't call people "ass holes" like we do. Obviously
- the many English expressions like "kick ass," "piece of
- ass," etc. don't translate.
-
- In addition to the ubiquitous HUEVOS, the gonads, properly
- CRIADILLAS or TESTíCULOS, are called COJONES, BOLAS.
- COJONES is most often used as "balls" in the sense of
- bravery or brashness and TENER COJONES means "having guts."
-
- DOING IT
- Though of limited utility, these expressions for "getting it
- on" are so colorful we knew you'd want to know them:
- ECHAR UN PALO (throw the stick), MEDIR SU ACEITE (check her
- oil). For more, get the book, MEXICAN SLANG: A !%#*! GUIDE.
-
- MASTURBATION
- Involves variations on PUñO (fist). Hence PUñETAZO and HACER
- LA PUñETA (making like a pump shotgun). One also hears PAJA
- (straw) and HACER PAJA.
-
- HEAVY PETTING
- When caresses (CARICIAS) and hugs (ABRAZOS) get specific
- they are called other things. SOBAS are hugs, but SOBAR also
- applies to all degrees of petting. APAPACHAR, for instance,
- is to "cop a feel" and CHICHONEAR means to fondle the
- breasts.
-
- HOMOSEXUAL
- Among the inevitable swarm of words and innuendo the polite
- or correct term is HOMOSEXUAL. A light, joking term similar
- to "fairy" or "flit" is LILO. The "standard" term, not
- completely polite but acceptable, is JOTO. A harsh term,
- comparable to "faggot" would be PUTO (masc. of PUTA, whore).
- PUTóN is a flaming faggot. The female equivalent, like
- "butch," would be MARIMACHA. Incidentally, in Spanish
- countries AIDS is el SIDA and those with AIDS are SIDOSOS.
