Rfv-sense: The penis bone of a raccoon. Possibly made up sense? —Svārtava (t/u) • 14:28, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- It appears to exist: [1], [2], [3]. 70.172.194.25 17:23, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- The definition is for the penis bone, which is only referred to in the second of your three quotes. Of course, raccoon anatomy being what it is, any raccoon penis is going to include a penis bone- but the definition seems to call for the bone without the soft tissue.

- I'd suggest just revising the definition to just "The penis of..." rather than "The penis bone of..." per the cites; I see no reason to think the phrase would ever refer specifically to the bone to the exclusion of soft tissue. - -sche (discuss) 20:10, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
- The term seems to refer to the use of the raccoon penis bone as a talisman or trophy (compare [4]). The uses found by our IP support this as a non-hyphenated term, coon dick. Whether it would pass RFD is another matter. This, that and the other (talk) 06:33, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

cited. I moved the entry to coon dick, as that is the more common form. If you consider it SOP, you can bring that up at RFD, but I would vote to keep it, because it really is the bone rather than the penis itself, so I think the fried egg rule applies. Kiwima (talk) 23:35, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
