 * Most of what I find is not on durably archived sources. I did add one from Usenet. Kiwima (talk) 01:40, 13 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Def is probably wrong. "Fleshitude" is more likely to relate to actual flesh (body shape, curvaceousness?) than generic attractiveness. Equinox ◑ 21:07, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
 * It seems like it was phrased to fit the etymology, which seems to be wrong. I think the correct etymology would that it's a blend of flesh and pulchritude, the joke being that a fancy, effete-sounding latinate term has its guts ripped out and replaced by an embarrassingly blunt "Anglo-Saxonism".

 * IMO -itude or -titude is a highly productive suffix in English, especially with humourous or pseudo-humorous intent, such as may be found at UD. Examples: arseitude, asstitude, authenticitude, correctitude, hackitude. DCDuring (talk) 00:25, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
