Word of The Day contest july 18th - 20th
 
Douglas chose me as the winner of the last WOD contest.
This means I get to choose the next word for the next contest.
The first wird I chose has been used before, so now here is another one:

tittynope


As usual: don �t bore us with true definitions or explanations, invent new, convincing or amusing ones! If your brains melt in the European heat wave, go into the cellar, get up in the middle of the cool night, or eat an ice-cream and think again!!

What the lactating mom told her husband when he became amorous. "Tittynope, that �s for the baby." Oh please don �t. You know you wanted to say something along those lines.

Thank God the tittynope isn �t used any longer. It is a torture device from the middle ages. It was used to tear off or shred the breasts of women accused of adultery or promiscuity. 
It is also known as "breast ripper" (true true)

@Hodizzle,
I think you mean "anterior", not "posterior".

It�s one of those homographs with two completely different meanings.

1-      Different spelling for titinope:  young single titi monkey males who reject the group.

2-      Colloquial term for babies who refuse breastfeeding.

edromedina, I like your definition best.
over to you.
But the contest is getting somewhat lame ... maybe due to the summer?

Edromedina did not react, sorry  I found out so late. Isa2 was good enough to inform me.

Anaram, would you like to continue the WOD contest?
