If you catch it in your zipper it's a "dick"...
If you're going to fuck her with it, it's a Cock....
xx SF
My ex used to call it his salami, i loved that!
I prefer cock because the word dick just makes me giggle. But in a story I'm really not pushed either way.
I think it is not so important as what you call it! It is more important that you put it to good use. In a caring and passionate way.
To boldly Lush where no one has Lushed before
I like to see different words used, it makes the story more real. However, cock is a real good word in the heat of the moment: ....as we stood there talking I wondered about the size of his penis/his cock felt so large in my mouth, it gagged me..
I like to mix it up. It depends what kind of tone I'm putting across. In a love story I try to avoid using many vulgar words but if it's just raw passion then I can get pretty filthy.
I guess I say cock and dick...
But I use dick more then I say cock...
Definitely Cock, dick is far to close to naming it. There is the occasional reason for it like "suck my dick bitch" or a character that would say it but that's about it for me. Personally I do occasionally like shaft, like "she impaled herself on his shaft". But that's more romance novel than erotica, so it is kind of what your going for. The use of penis is alright in a more clinical scene or when someone innocent is thinking or talking. Basically it depends on the context, but cock is a safe bet if your not sure.
I think 'cock' won.
When I read 'dick', I think 'asshole', or 'jerk'.
I like the comment about the 'ick.'
I like "cock" much more than "dick". For me it just seems the sound of the word is what counts. Cock just sounds like what a perfect penis is: hard, large, blunt, invasive, Besides when you say cock your mouth opens as if preparing to give fellatio.
Disregarding sound, dick has the issue of also being a name, which I think gives it a tinge of humor to it.
All that being said, when writing you have to use different words just to mix things up a bit and also some words are used best in certain specific situations. I believe cock should be used most often but not used exclusively.
definately cock unless i'm being playfull then its rythmn stick lol
I definitely prefer cock. I've known too many Richards that went by Dick (and some are real dicks) to take it seriously. Actually have a manager where I work who tried to convince someone named Dick to go by Richard because she finds it embarassing to use his name.
