JUST LEARNED THAT BOTH BOYS AND GIRLS HAVE A WENIS.

The subject came up as we were waiting for someone to get on the phone for our weekly conference status call. As I was lost in thought about what I was having for lunch (responsible, non-fattening stuff or pizza) one of the juniors (1^st year agency creative) slaps me on the elbow. She then announces to the whole room, “Ha! Touched your Wenis!” Everyone nervously laughed and I turned bright red. Before I could come up with a cool, yet non-sexual harassment-like response, she added, “Wenis (weenis) is the term for the extra flap of skin on the elbow. Duh!” 2 minute later another junior (account side) with a smartphone confirmed that the word is in fact in Urban Dictionary. 

Later (after the client finished saying something about something), I too checked the word out on UD. It was there, I was just disappointed they didn’t offer any word origin or rationale. Is Wenis based on a sexual inside joke, like a glazed donut? Is it based on Greek Mythology? Did Brody Jenner coin the term? As a last ditch effort I thought finding the real body-part term might help. That word is Olecranon. So yeah, no dice. If anyone has any thoughts on the subject, I’m all ears…and elbows (ba-dum-ump-tsssshhhhhh).
