Hi so like. Not a question you have to answer at all if you don’t want to. Totally understand
Do you know what the period appropriate regency euphemisms for like having sex would have been? Just like. causal conversation. What words would you use for like “I had sex with her”
You do not even know how prepared I am for this question!!!
I did a bunch of research while writing a very smutty story about Jane and Bingley called A Little Before Their Marriage. Spoiler: Mrs. Bennet gives the best sex talk ever and she knows slang! I even read Fanny Hill (widely considered to be the first erotic novel). It's bad, I'll post a review.
The main source is Green's Dictorinary of Slang, some terms are summarized here. And I'll highlight some below the jump (swears down there):
This is a dictionary of 19th century slang - super useful for writing historical fiction set in England, or deciphering that gorgeous Georgette Heyer period talk :)

The slang vernacular in Georgette Heyer's work is epic and breathtaking and eventually you get used to it and work out the context and can navigate large passages involving bluestockings giving Corinthians the cut direct, who then plant facers on Pinks of the Ton wearing mathematicals who drive neck or nothing in their high-perch phaetons with their cattle and tigers, and it all makes sense, but one term I finally had to go and dig up because it was so weird. The term was "ape-leader" and from context it was a mild derogatory referred to an older unmarried woman. (One who was "on the shelf") Right, got that, but seriously, "ape-leader"? Where's THAT from? So I went to the internet, and discovered it was, in fact, a contraction of "ape leader in hell" (good god, this just gets better and better!) and refers to an old maid, who, for having failed to be fruitful and multiply in life, will be sentenced in hell to lead apes. Um. 'Kay. Leaving aside all of what this says about views of spinsters in Regency England, it raises a great many more questions. Sources are unclear as to where she leads the apes, or what she leads them in--revolt? A rousing chorus of the Irish Washerwoman? The conga?--a question that I was rather interested in, since I've failed and will continue to fail, Ganesh willing, to be fruitful and multiply myself and would like to know what I can expect in the afterlife as a result. Is this like being a dog-walker? Do demons favor pet gibbons and siamangs, which I will be kept on staff to exercise? Can you lead an ape to water and make him drink? Will this be a salaried position?
Ape-Leaders
Am I a mushroom? :((((((
