Etymology and terminology
[edit]The term cunnilingus is derived from the Latin words for vulva (cunnus) and the verb "to lick" (lingō). There are numerous slang terms for cunnilingus, including "drinking from the furry cup", "carpet munching", and "muff-diving". Additional common slang terms used are "giving lip", "lip service", or "tipping the velvet"; this last is an expression that novelist Sarah Waters claims to have "plucked from the relative obscurity of Victorian porn". It is also popularly known in the urban community as "dining at the Y" or "DATY".[1]A person who performs cunnilingus may be referred to as a "cunnilinguist".
