Perhaps, eat out emerged to avoid the profanity of pussy.įast forward to the 1990–2000s and eating out was well established not only in everything from intimate banter to pornography titles but also in popular culture.
The two are interchangeable and, in fact, occur together, as some people say eating out someone’s pussy. An older term is eat pussy, found in 1939. The slang eat out has been around since 1969-what a coincidence. The more formal, but less vivid, term is cunnilingus. The connection is the mouth, hence eating.
It involves performing oral sex on a vagina and sometimes anus. In the bedroom though, eating out doesn’t involve any forks and knives-hopefully. That phrase has been around since the 1930s and popular ever since. Yes, plenty of times, when people talk about eating out, they mean eating at a restaurant as opposed to at home ( eating in).
