Hey, Sexy Thesaurians** and all readers and writers of naughty words!

Thanks for being here - you can help us all out a lot by providing crowd-sourced data on how we feel about various synonyms for the sexy bits. When I compile this information on my blog and Twitter (where it will be, like the rest of the Sexy Thesaurus, a totally free & open resource for everyone), I'd LOVE to give you, your books, or your socials a shout-out in return for sharing your sexy braintrust.

Following the format on the Sexy Thesaurus blog, I've grouped words into those generally applied to vaginas/adjacent organs (and used she/her pronouns here, while noting those are not the only pronouns that might apply) on page 1, and words generally applied to penises and adjacent organs (with he/him pronouns, but again, these are not the only relevant pronouns) on page 2. As I note on the blog, this list is non-exhaustive and comes from a sampling of novels and novellas.

The process is very simple - if it's a word that makes you go *yikes*/flaccid/dry/for the eyebleach, rate it a 1. If it has the opposite effect, if you'd /love/ to read or hear this word in a description of coitus, score it a 10. Everything else is in-between - you get the idea. Thanks again from me and our enormous community of humans who write or talk about sex.

xoxo Laurel
