What's the Female Equivalent of Blue Balls Called?

Since “blue balls exist” was one of the top 10 universal truths we learned from our commenters in 2009, our contributor and regular commenter figleaf suggested that we poll everyone to come up with a term for the female equivalent of that achy-aroused condition. Please put your suggestions in the comments below and in a few weeks we’ll have you vote on the best. Here are some to get you going: “Vexatious vulva.” Eh — the alliteration is pretty good, but it doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue. Urban Dictionary lists “blue bean,” which sounds really quite good, but may not accurately describe the all-over genital ache.

  1. Well my girlfriends and I have always referred to it as the The V.A.; the vaginal ache, because it is just more of a deep ache than an actual pain. Not particularly funny or witty, but elegant,simple and descriptively accurate.

  2. Urban dictionary recently offered the term “immaculate congestion” for definition. I immediately thought of the vulvar and clitoral discomfort that occurs with cybersex, phone sex, or sexting without masturbatory release. That may last for hours if you don’t do anything about it
