"Cock"

There is a 'unisex' 1867 Doten reference, which was noted on this list a
few months ago.

<<We felt of each other's cocks ... and then she got on and fucked me
bully.>>

I think at least one other clearly 'unisex' quotation has appeared on
this list, but I can't find it now.

No matter how strange it may seem to some of us moderns, it appears that
"cock" was 'unisex' for some in the past (wouldn't amaze me if it
remains so for somebody somewhere).
