Have to agree with �cunliffe� here: �dick� is usually applied to adults.
@Sophia, your punctuational shock has just reminded me that there isn�t really a consensus on language and morality on this site (I�m assuming that�s what you meant to convey without being judgemental).

William was enjoying his ride when he heard the ominous, �Leaves on the line! � He got ready for the inevitable tumble. |

Marieth� , you ROCK
Portuguese " trains" , which you forgot, roll on like this :
Trof� - Fafe, Trof� - Fafe Trof� - Fafe - Trof� - Fafe
which are the names of two very small cities ( I live in one of them, Fafe ) and the " onomatopaico" ( does this make sense ? ) sound is, obviously similar.
Now, attention, hard business - I am a single daughter, so, I only know Dick. 
May only one of you raise a a finger and I delete my post. No intention to be rude, I know what I wrote, I �m not a nun, but I do respect everyone of you. Just a single paragraph, and I can delete it with ZERO problems.
@Almaz, no need to pay copyright for inspiration - lol, that doesn �t exist.
Hugs
Richard
EDIT:
@ Poor of you Les , can�t wait for your answer. I�ll copy/paste it for sure, as a great document about some kind of subject less ... well , slightly inconvenient. Can�t wait for your wise words

@ Dear Olinda,
Don �t you dare delete your comment...
We are adults ..here.. This is only a game to make everybody laugh.... Too bad if people don �t know the names of things
Greetings from North of Portugal.

Hi CincoQuinas
Thanks a bunch for your support.... Thanks to Almaz....
But, by now, I am not that sure; I didn �t want to be rude, that was not my idea, but, now, with some pms, I am not sure .... I �m fully convinced I didn �t write anything rude, but, as I am not native, may be I have done some big mistake.
I �m off to bed, tomorrow is another day, I �ll check tomorrow.
Sorry Les, I didn �t mean to poison your your post.
Hugs

"So, they say this thing runs on methane. I �ll believe it when I see it--here goes."
Concerning the word "dick" (not that it bothers me):
We prudish Americans generally consider "dick" as profanity. If placed on a profanity scale of 1 to 10 (ten being the F word or C word and one being "poop"), dick probably sits at about 5-6, one or two steps higher than ass.
Some talk arounds for younger folks are: weaner, weewee, pee man, penis, peepee

NOTE: I won�t be online for about a week, so please don�t pick me for the next caption.
