Pervertible

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Badly sourced neologism. Term already has a short entry in Wiktionary which could be expanded to include this particular meaning. The first sentence is very closely paraphrased from the definition on the Informed Consent website listed as the second of two references. Reference #1 is dead.

To Wiktionary Dictionary definition. It might be possible to write an article about people using everyday objects as sex toys, with references to everyone who's written about masturbating with a shower faucet and statistics about cucumber sales, but this article isn't anywhere near encyclopedic, and you would need a better title. --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:24, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - as an unsourced, non-notable neologism. Glad to see they got the controversial toothbrush graphic that the porn hobbyists at Commons are so infatuated with into play in an "educational" context... I suspect that the only reason for this article's existence is to get that should-have-been-deleted graphic into play, but don't listen to me, I'm a cynic...

Delete - It has long been said that if you cannot think of at least 6 ways to use an object other than for its intended purpose then you don't fully understand it. As anything can be used for some perverted purpose the word has no real meaning. John lilburne (talk) 20:40, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Haven't found any evidence that it is gaining currency. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:50, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - this doesn't appear to pass the general notability guideline, doesn't seem like a topic in need of an encyclopedic entry, and is certainly currently written in a way that is far outside the expectations of what a Wikipedia article should be.
