Jailbait
A group of American exchange students is staying at the Best Western in Fairfax.
This morning there was no empty table in the breakfast room, but I did manage to get a seat at a table with four female students.
“Excuse me, what are you doing here?” I asked.
“We are exchange students,” a girl answered.
Another girl was studying a piece of paper. Finally she said: “First we go to the Holocaust Museum. What time is the bus leaving?”
I finished my cup of coffee.
Tonight two students (a boy and a girl) knocked on my door. “Let us in,” they shouted. They appeared to be intoxicated.
I was tempted but I didn’t let them in.
There is a thing called jailbait.

Not so in our days, in the early seventies. I remember fellow students having intercourse and an attempt to simulate an ancient Roman orgy during our classical voyage trough Italy.The Chianti and the Marsala All’uovo were fine.
What a shame.
Most of those follies went past me. When I was between 12 and 14 years of age friends and classmates got reprimanded for drinking at school, had their first fuck buddies and in one case died in car accidents while being drunk. I chose carefully, went to one or three local punk concerts (including standing on rickety beer benches to avoid getting trampled to death in an overcrowded marquee), tried weed a few times and made my mother cry because I smoked. It left a shallow feeling of "Oh well."

How would you translate "fuck budy" into German?I.e. what is the German word you are using for "fuck budy"?
Arnon
I would use the term "Fickbekanntschaft" even though I wouldn't say that this word is widely used in Germany. There definitely is a word for women indulging in this kind of social contact, which is "Matratze" (mattress). It is mostly used pejoratively, though, like in "Sie führen keine Beziehung, sie ist nur seine Matratze." (They don't have a relationships, she's just his mattress.)Juliana
Can a man also be a matress?If not, does that mean German men are supposed to be on top?
In Dutch we have "afgelikte boterham", which roughly translates as "sandwich which has been licked to much". Also pejorative and for women only, but it does imply a slightly different role for the man.
The nice thing about fuck buddy is that it is not pejorative and also gender-neutral.
Arnon
I don't get it, and going to the whores is legal?On fuck buddies
In English the more courteous word is "friend with benefits" - wich is commonly translated as "FreundIn mit gewissen Vorzügen".Pjötr
What foie gras is to a hamburger is a friend with benefits to a fuck buddy.Arnon
What is your opinion on foie gras?Oscar
When I have to choose between frog legs and foie gras I usually choose foie gras.Seriously
Is Foie gras legal?! I thought geese forced feeding is banned in most of the western world countries. How one cooks Foie gras then?Or am I very innocent
College youngsters are more protected than whores and geese, in all three cases their consumption is forbidden.Pjötr
I hadn't heard of 'friend with benefits'. Nice, though the encoding takes away the edge. I mean friend with benefits sounds like she has a nice dental plan that also includes her partners. Not to downplay the importance of dental plans, of course. I gave up mine and since then I worry a lot more about my teeth.[ Add comment ]
