Sisters of the Pole? |
I was meeting with some of my Japanese friends and we were discussing the standard in Japan; third grade humor involving dirty words and how to say them in both languages. As we were going over the standards: o-pie me-tie (said like you’d read it) they asked me how to say 穴兄弟 (ana kyodai) in English.
Puzzled, I asked for clarification. They then explained that in Japan when two guys sleep with the same girl they are henceforth known as ana kyodai or Brothers of the Hole. For example, Tironne and Deric sleep with girl x; now they are brothers of the hole. Stumped I had to explain that in English we don’t really have a term for that situation. I mean we have:
Blood brothers
Brothers of a different mother
Bro, Bra, or Brothhher
Big Brothers
But no real term for two guys that sleep with the same woman. I guess since the action is, in American culture, sort of taboo it doesn’t happen often, so there is no term? Or am I just too mainstream and there is an idiom for it?
Worst thing is I forgot to ask what the opposite of Brothers of the Hole is? As in two girls that sleep with the same guy … Sisters of the Pole?

Ahhh…this is bad territory for me and…well…some people. nuff said.
Yeah there are terms for it here (America). Hey want a shock? If so look up MUNG on urban dictionary (the one that ends in .com). Oh and thanks a lot. I had never wanted to learn obsceneties in the Japanese language for fear that I would limit my vocabulary and rely on them far to much. At least it is a situational word I should be able to avoid.
The latest and most popular term is “hole brothers” (see Urban dictionary) , there is even a new web app dedicated to this, its hilarious: http://www.holebrothers.com,

Why is it bad? In Asia, people want their women to be clean and virgin. So when there’s a woman who allegedly had sex with two or more men, she deserves her own designated term. ;P Or maybe it’s just me.
But you nailed it with “Sisters of the pole”. XD I will engrave it on my bone and laugh whenever I’m reminded of this. thnx
