More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Would you be offended if someone called you a "back door burglar"? Ever heard of a "five against one"? Do you know what it means to "check the oil"? Would you rather do the "Little Dutch Boy" or the "Little Red Riding Hood"? Along with both a literal and a sexual definition of each euphemism, this unique dictionary also has photographs, and, of course, an example of each term used in a sentence - all in an effort to irreverently entertain and inform. A perennial gag gift and perfect guilt pleasure for anyone who ever got a thrill looking up naughty words in the dictionary as a kid, it's also ideal for those just plain too shy to ask what a "pearl necklace" really is.

Rollickin' good read!
8 May 2007
Format:Hardcover
Jordan Tate will enlighten you with the meanings of all those phrases you overheard in Junior High and still don't quite understand. A lovely addition to every library.

The pleasures of reading the OED and snickering at dirty Mad Libs rolled into one
11 Jan 2007
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Depending on your familiarity with contemporary sexual slang, this book will either be one big gut laugh, or a highly educational experience. For most readers, it will be both. Tate combines suprisingly elegant entymologies with suprisingly tasteful photos to make a genuinely pleasurable read. Best displayed in the bathrooms of intellectuals, passed around at a party, or given as a gift.

Good, but much less than I expected
14 July 2009
Format:Hardcover
This is more of a pamphlet than a dictionary. More of a short bathroom reader for guests than a fully informative dictionary.
