The sole absolutely horrible citation needs to be replaced by three that... well, don't suck. — [Ric Laurent]03:58, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

I couldn't find much, but this term is really used, it's the verb for tribadism and I vouch for it.Lucifer 05:57, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
Hmm, if it's a verb (and the usex shows verb use), perhaps it shouldn't be under a ===Noun=== header? -- Eiríkr ÚtlendiTala við mig 06:39, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
  • Google Books: "She loved tribbing and knew that this was going to be a great experience. Roxy was not disapointed because once their pussies were together, Helga was like an animal hunching hard and groaning."
  • Lesbian Sex Tips, Tricks & Techniques has a chapter about tribbing (on google books, p. 73)
There are also some hits in Google News archives. Fugyoo 10:52, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
Sorry I wasn't clear -- I'm not refuting that a noun sense exists, but rather wondering why the usex for the noun is in fact a verb form. -- Eiríkr ÚtlendiTala við mig 16:08, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
Because it's Troy. He has yet to learn a lot of the terms used here. — [Ric Laurent]18:07, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
I didn't create this entry, its clearly a noun entry for what is in reality a verb, all I did was expand the entry with a cite.Lucifer 19:00, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
Lol I apologize for that, the original creator (Chuletadechancho (talkcontribs)) of the entry added that usex. It looked like your style of writing, and you've made a number of similar slips. Anyway, the "quotation" you added is still atrocious. It'd be nice if it had some good ones. — [Ric Laurent]20:14, 16 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
I really appreciate that, I hope we could keep getting along in this manner and that makes sense, the subject matter is my forte which is what piqued my interest in the first place. That was the best citation I could find, I know dictionary defs are bad, and that they are usually copyvios so I tried an except approach. This is definitely a legit term, I guess there is a mountain of man on man action in literature but lesbians don't seem to have to much sex in print, or I'm not good at finding it, I think both are likely as I am allergic to lesbians and only like girly girl heterosexual girls.Lucifer 10:24, 17 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
I've added two books; other citations are available on Usenet, although there's also a lot of crap, and I've marked the term {{rare}}. - -sche (discuss) 06:19, 22 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
