Oh my god, Paul, I didn't even realize that it could be taken that way... and usually I've got a mind that could rival a Victorian sewer (open and super dirty!). My grandfather, from what I've been told, used to use that word to discuss female parts. I usually use the synonym for "cat". However, I don't shy away from the other slang terms (especially the one that rhymes with "bunt" that most women HATE).
Yours,
Sheila
