Disclaimer: I do not encourage the use of the following words

Eskimos have a multitude of ways to describe/say snow. This word says a lot about thier culture and how they need to communicate to survive in that environment.

It was brought to my attention that Americans have multiple ways to reference sex and money. I know . . . we have such a rich culture. . . I started my own list to see just how many synonyms we have. 

Participation in this "cultural research study" of mine would be effective. (I'm not actually performing a study I'm just curious aren't you?)


SEX                                                                                            

Intercourse                                                                                  
F***in                                                                                        
Smash                                                                                         
Slammin                                                                                     
porn?                                                                                          
making love                                                                               
sleeping together                                                                        
screw                                                                                         
making babies                  

MONEY

Currency
Green
Mullah
Dough
Cash
Bills
Loot?
Coins
Cha Ching

This cannot be all of the variations because it seems like year after year our culture adds on more synonyms such as the popular Jersey Shore additions for sex or newly recorded hip hop songs referencing money.

any more add-ons?
