Talk:supercock

RFV discussion: June–October 2012
"1. A large penis. 2. The quality of exceptionalism or talent." The given Penthouse citation is useless. Equinox ◑ 11:46, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * The other citation doesn't demonstrate this meaning in particular. Could equally mean a very large male chicken. In reality it's probably a pejorative meaning dickhead, bastard, etc. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:55, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * The citation from a 1973 issue of Penthouse originally given doesn't verify either sense 1 or 2, but there's a subsequent sentence in the same source that features a clear use of sense 1. The Penthouse writer assigns two meanings to "supercock", one reflecting sense 1, the other to "describe a man who knows what to do [with what he's got]" and is "a superlover as far as techniques are concerned." Which is a long way from the definition given in sense 2, and, even then, it's still an idiosyncratic meaning apparently used strictly by the Penthouse writer. Sense 2 should be removed. Sense 1, on the other hand, has been used outside the Penthouse source (found six other citations which feature it). There's also another sense referring to large male chickens.
