Default Onanism Defined

On page 71 of the October issue of Car and Driver Magazine, the Buick section mentions a new model for 2005 called the "LaCrosse."

Then it says that this model name won't be used by Buick in Canada, where the word is teenage slang for onanism. The definition:


Definition: [n] a method of birth control in which coitus is initiated but the penis is deliberately withdrawn before ejaculation
[n] manual stimulation of the genital organs (of yourself or another) for sexual pleasure


Synonyms: coitus interruptus, masturbation, pulling out, self-abuse, withdrawal method

Wouldn't it only be LaCrosse if you switched hands?

Indeed, what of LaCrosse Wisconsin? Hmmmmm.

Food for thought.

I don't get it. "LaCrosse" is the name of the traditional Canadian national sport (before hockey).

No, Remember I said "traditional"? They still teach this game in many schools but the sport itself is not nationally televised. It just doesn't generate enough wide spread interest. There's just something odd about a bunch of people running around carrying little nets on a stick.

LaCrosse only really would make sense to french Canadians (I'm one of them)

It literally means masturbation. Crosse is masturbation and La is the.

SO....THE MASTURBATION.

not a great name for a car if you're going to sell it to french ppl.
