Ciao!
I don't know about you all, but I am highly amused at the return of the word, "douche." Every talk show, sitcom or reality show you snap on, "douche" is featured as the word du jour.
For one, it's fun to say. Do it with me: Douche! Douche! Douche! Didn't that feel... cleansing?
At the same juncture, it's occurred to me that I might want to hold back a bit on its use until I figure out if I should be offended. After all, I am a self-proclaimed humanist who vehemently endorses the proper treatment of both genders. And as an upstanding, vagina-bearing member of the human race, I can't help but wonder if somehow me and my ilk are inadvertently disrespecting ourselves in the name of cunne-lingo.
The only way to determine is to get schooled, so let's refer to a proper definition of "douche," shall we?
Douche
A douche is a device used to introduce a stream of water into the body for medical or hygienic reasons, or the stream of water itself.
Douche usually refers to vaginal irrigation, the rinsing of the vagina, but it can also refer to the rinsing of any body cavity. A douche bag is a piece of equipment for douching--a bag for holding the fluid used in douching. To avoid transferring intestinal bacteria into the vagina, the same bag must not be used for a vaginal douche and an enema.
Slang uses
Douchebag, or simply douche, is considered to be a pejorative term in North America. In other English speaking countries the term is not well known. The slang usage of the term dates back to the 1960s.[6] The term implies a variety of negative qualities, specifically arrogance and engaging in obnoxious and/or irritating actions without malicious intent. It is generally used for males only.
First off, there is absolutely nothing wrong with a clean vagina. Let's just get that out of the way right now. And one would certainly hope that a douche user would understand not to insert the contents of their bowels into their baby-making parts. That's just like a sign on matches that reads, "Do not light one's self on fire."
Now, let's review the extrapolations of this slang term that have been used as of late. There's douchey, douchetastic (that's mine) and douchable. Is a big douche another way to say gaping vagina? And if so, should I be so quick to jump on that bus? I mean, I've had two children.
But what other term would suffice in referring to an idiotic, self-centered hot mess who bathes in vanity like Aqua Velva. Or, as would be more apropros in this discourse, Aqua Vulva?
Should we girls set forth some rules? Is it like the "N" word, a derogatory term only permissible by those in the group?
Nah. I say douche should be free for all. My joy in using it far outweighs any negative connotations. If we want a harsh, nasty term to refer to a bitchy man, "tampon" is a far more relevant term. After all, they are messier and are used only in times of pain and discomfort.
Ironically, each time I hear a gay bandy "fish" around, I cringe, like when I hear "panty" or "moist." It actually offends me far more than "cunt," a term I myself have been inclined to use if the situation warrants. I guess it's because a bunch of penii with no interest in vaginii feel more inclined to refer to my private treasure as possessing the stench of a rotting ocean life corpse. But it's not fair, because they've never so much as taken a whiff.
Never mind the fact that all of them sprung forth from "fish." "Douche," in the least doesn't refer to the vagina itself, but a CLEAN vagina.
Now armed with the proper definition of "douche," I've taken it upon myself to decide whose picture should appear next to the term, should it make the ranks of Webster's.
