Pretty much, it's a device that women use after sex to try and wash the sperm out of them. If anything, one would think it was only washing the stuff closer to the fallopians, but hey, whatever creaks your springs ...

So it's just another word that, because it's correlated with something dirty, became an insult.

On a side note, has anyone ever gotten a mental image of the literal meaning of some of these insults? It really drops the perceived IQ of the person saying them.

Douche bag: John Edward from "Crossing Over". In fact, he won the Biggest Douche in the Universe Pageant.

I can't stand it when guys make comments like that about things they don't and can't know.

Sorry ... I got that information in health class, from a 40-year-old woman. I thought she knew what she was talking about. (I guess not.)

To be fair, it was pretty much right. I hadn't any idea whatsoever what it is, and I'm a girl. My knowlege of feminine products outclassed by a guy :(

It's official: GodofTarot's acting exactly the way she (he?) was acussing Joel of acting. How ironic.
Faith is what credulity becomes when it finally achieves escape velocity from the constraints of terrestrial discourse- reasonableness, internal coherence, civility, and candor. Thus, the men who commited the atrocities of September 11 were neither cowards nor lunatics of any sort, but Men of Faith- perfect faith- and this, it must finally be acknowleged, is a terrible thing to be.

So he was misinformed, so what? He thought he knew the answer and he was trying to be helpful.

Chill out, he wasn't being malicious or rude, there's no need to respond to him as such.

Unless say the boy in question spent most of his life in a house hold full of women, and was forced to learn pretty much all the specifics about the female gender. *shrugs*
