swolva (n.)

swolva (n.) a swollen vulva, an indication of attraction and arousal e.g. I have a total swolva for the new Jean Grae album.

I had the unfortunate experience of briefly dating a young man who wasn’t interested in me (but who didn’t have the courage or good sense to say so). We would make out and mess around and then, as it grew late, he’d roll over and fall asleep, leaving me in a . . . state. I had a hard time determining what to call that, and for awhile I went with “blue vulva.” But that makes reference to the notion of blue balls which is loaded with all kinds of bogus ridiculousness, and it’s two words, which seems linguistically inefficient.

While laying around with my boy, who loves talking about having a bonner (he pronounces it with the short o) for things, I thought again about this problem. And then? A moment of revelation! Swolva!
