... "badwilson" wrote in message ... "John F. Eldredge" wrote in message ... The standard meaning for merkin, going back several hundred years, is a pubic wig. So, in a sense, it is a wig that you wear Down Under... A pubic wig??? Wow, is that for people with genital baldness? Or are you supposed to shave off what you got and then wear the wig? Or is it just for special times like Valentines Day when you might want to go for a fancy hairstyle? The mind boggles... I dunno, although I tend to use 'Merkin' in the 'citizen of the USA' sense, and mean no offence by it (I take no offence about being called an 'Aussie' either, and use it in the same sense), the irony of its original meaning still amuses me from time to time. Yowie "But some of my best friends are Merkins" The term was also used in another newsgroup, but when people found out what it means, the spelling was changed to Merkan. Using "a" instead of "i" is more appropriate anyway. Joy (Merkan) |

*Especially* several hundred years ago? Like it makes any more sense for
people to want them now? ROFL!! I guess what I was thinking was, weren't people much more modest than now? But I guess it would make far more sense than such a product *today*. I mean, you sure don't read about "Ye Olde Bikini Wax Shoppe" in the history books or anything. I guess it was not only more attractive for women to be fatter then, but also hairier. Sherry. Thinking she ought to just shut up now. |
