I'm reading a hard-boiled crime novel whereby the author refers to the male MC's penis as a 'dangler'. The book is in British English, and though I get the reference I've never read this term in erotic romance, for example, or anywhere else. Wondering if I wrote that instead of the other more common words for male genitalia if readers would laugh their heads off?
Same for the word he's used to describe the vagina: yoni. Never come across this word before--anywhere, actually--and certainly never in erotica/erotic romance. Granted, as I said above this book is hard core crime and the author is male. But do people use 'yoni' in real life? And how do you pronounce that: Yoh-nee, yaw-nee...something else? Sorry, non-native English speaker here and I'm...baffled. And amused. But maybe I could be using these words in my erotic romances and erotica pieces?
Please shed some light! Thx!
