I don't know which part of the UK you're from Peter, but I've never heard
male genitals called a dork before, and I've been on this God-forsaken
island for nearly all my born days (I went to France once, oh, yeah and
the Isle of Man :) ).

Common euphemisms I've heard for it, are:
	Monkey
	Wodge
	Tackle
	Jock
	Lunchbox
	Hose
	Thing(y)
	Beast
	Organ
	Fireman
	Helmet
and even "Spitting Doll"

but not Dork

...and I'm sure I'm missing some euphemisms there.

And Finally: Apologies to those who find this thread has become rather
tasteless... :-S
