Dear IEists!
I was told that Walter Wuest had an article on IE words
denoting sexual organs, but i couldn't find. Could anyone
give a reference? I myself have not infrequently been puzzled,
that all three PIE words, which can be reconstructed for 'vulva',
have at the same time the meaning 'buttocks, anus' (namely,
*putos, *ksutos and *pisdeH2). Any suggestions? [ :-) ].
Regards,
Mike
