The "Puberty for Boys" Dictionary

[clr9823]

I am creating a dictionary for people who are new to this topic to get them up to speed on phrases that are used in this section. It isn't in any order (sorry, now it is alphabetically ordered), but once people have posted more words and changes to the meanings, I will edit it to be a final one.

Update: Nearly there!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-"Anal Sex" (Anal)
Using the anus instead of the vagina when having intercourse. Done by both straight and gay men.

-"Bisexual" (Bi)
A term used to describe people who are attracted to people of both sexes.

-"Blow Job" (Sometimes called BJ)
When a man's penis is sucked by another person, male or female. This is an Oral Sex act. Although this act doesn't have the risk of getting a girl pregnant, you can still catch STDs from them. For females, see "Oral Sex"

-"Circumcised"
A penis that has had it's fore skin removed.

-"Cum" (Proper name: Semen, Other slang names "Spunk", "Jizz")
Semen is the liquid that a man ejaculates that contains the sperm. This liquid allows the sperm to swim to the female "egg" to fertilise it. Cum is safe to eat. Cum may contain STDs if it comes from an infected person.

-"Ejaculate" (Other name "Cumming")
When a man releases semen through the penis as the result of stimulation.

-"Emotional Attraction"
Used to describe "love" and a desire to pursue a relationship that is more that just sexual. It is usually used when talking about homosexual thoughts/feelings.

-"Erection" (Sometimes called "Boner")
When the penis is hard, because it is filled with blood. Happens when sexually excited or it just sometimes happens for no reason during puberty.

-"Experiment"
Experimenting on this forum means to experiment with same-sex relationships. This may involve sexual acts, but doesn't have to. Experimenting is usually done with a peer in your age group. Experimenting is actually quite common and it doesn't mean you are gay.

-"Foreskin"
The retractable skin that covers the head (top bit) of the penis.

-"Homosexual" (Gay)
A term used to describe people who are attracted to the same sex.

-"Intercourse" (Sex)
Intercourse is full-on sex where the penis is inserted into the vagina. When the term "Sex" is used, it usually means intercourse.

-"Lubrication" ("Lube")
A liquid used in intercourse, anal sex and masturbation to reduce friction on the penis/vagina/anus.

-"Masturbate" ("Jerk off", "Wank")
Stimulating the sexual organs for self pleasure.

-Oral Sex (Blow Job (for Males), Eat Out/Lick Out (for Females))
The act of stimulating the sexual organs using the mouth.

-"STD" (Sexually Transmitted Disease. Sometimes called STI (Sexually Transmitted Infection))
STDs are diseases which are passed through bodily fluids, therefore most infected people have contracted it through sex. However, you don't need to have sex to catch one. Having an infected persons blood or semen enter your body can also infect you. Common STDs are:
HIV/Aids
Herpes
Chlamydia
Hepatitis A, B and C
Syphilis

-"Physical Attraction"
Used to describe a sexual desire. It is usually used when talking about homosexual thoughts/feelings.

-"Puberty"
The process of changing from child to adult. You develop physically, mentally and sexually. The process takes place from around 12-18 years old. It starts happening to girls younger (usually) and people start at many different ages. Puberty causes a lot of hormone changes, that can cause stress and angst.

-"Sperm"
Produced by the testicles, they are carried by the semen and can fertilise the female egg during intercourse.

-"Straight"
A term used to describe people who are attracted to people of the other sex

Phew, thats all I could think of. Please post with suggestions.
Also, I know I don't need to give you permission;), but please if any mods see any problems with my information, pleas edit it ASAP, or PM me. I really don't want to give people wrong info., puberty is hard enough.

[clr9823]

Oh, and I hope this is made a sticky. :yes:

Thanks, I will add your suggestions. I'm not trying to be a nag, but please remember don't double post. Use the "Edit" Button.

[Oblivion]

cas_conker is quite right, it's preferable you don't double or triple post (or quadruple, etc.) since you can easily use the edit button, and posting multiple times in a row is just useless.
Thanks.

As for the thread, it's quite useful, and I could see it having potential as a thread.

[Antares]

Yeah, this is a good idea and would be nice if it were expanded :P

[Rynokidd]

Cum - Seman or sperm, commonaly calls "Spunk". Lmfao. I've never heard spunk before! But that'll be what I call it from now on

[Tiberius]

You forgot to add this:
Erection- The firm and enlarged condition of a body organ or part when the erectile tissue surrounding it becomes filled with blood, especially such a condition of the penis

Yes but umm Im pretty sure the word erection only applies to the penis. Like I don't think I know anyone or myself that has been like "shit I'm getting and arm-boner right now". Lol

I like this thread. If it was alphabatized and a little more was added on, it could become a sticky.

[Oblivion]

'Am I gay? - /em I g-A/
No'

Sounds like a good definition, although it's not really puberty related... :P

[nick]

Spunk is a common term in the UK. You might want to add jizz as another alternative.

Your description of bjs implies that only a guy can get one. I think the girls will not agree with this! You might want to add "going down" and "eating out"

[Patchy]

Moved this to general puberty since some of the definitions would help girls as well.

Great thread btw +rep :)

[Requin]

It's getting there. Touch it up a bit, add some colours, spacing etc..
and it'll be good.

[Hezzy]

maybe some terms for all those shemales out there

[Leprachaun]

for masturbate you could add wank.
this is a good idea i think it will help some people alot
:)

[clr9823]

Ok, I have added/edited definitions, alphabetised the list, put the names in bold. Although this guide is in the General Puberty section and I have been asked to make it more female-orientated, I created this for boys. I don't have enough experience/knowledge aboud girls to really include it without giving wrong information, so maybe a girl (or anyone with experience) could create a girls version?

No, the word erection can be applied to more than to an erect penis.

[Tiberius]

Thank you for backing me up, George. I didn't remember that I posted here...

[IAMWILL]

No, the word erection can be applied to more than to an erect penis.

Hmmmm, I guess you're right. Probably just because I've never heard it used differently though....

This thread is almost there, needs a little touch ups.
