#9. Vajayjay
How can we possibly write about this in a dignified way? Well, it's funny,
foolish slang for "vagina." Yes, we can print that. The term, popularized in
2006 by Grey's Anatomy and more recently by Oprah Winfrey, is fairly
indicative of where we are linguistically as a nation. Borne out of a
network's fear of mentioning an anatomically correct word too frequently
during a primetime medical drama, "vajayjay" demonstrates that in some
ways, Americans are still immature about many things, including penayays.
