What is Asterisk?
1.
Star-shaped symbol (*) put beside words for reference or distinction; also sometimes INSERTED suggestively into words, to replace missing letters, for purposes of euphemism or censorship.
(In the days before the use of FOUR-LETTER WORDS became acceptable in public, the humble, little ASTERISK - like the meagre G-string on a strip-tease STAR - concealed a multitude of minges and covered the cracks in the pubic paving of everyday life.)
"Oh, I do love a good f*ck!" exclaimed Anthea happily, casually multi-tasking - as with one hand she poured coffee for Doris, while with the other she wiped a surfeit of sp*nk from her beard and hoisted her drawers. "That's the third time since breakfast," she smirked, with an air of satisfaction, adjusting her suspenders and reaching for a plate of chocolate biscuits.
Hearing Roger in the distance driving away in his new 1955 Vauxhall Victor, the two ladies settled down for a cosy chat.
"Don't you think, my dear, if you make it so readily available, that Roger may lose respect for you?" her older friend enquired anxiously, sipping the steaming, morning beverage through daintily pursed lips. "I've always rationed Alfred to once-a-week - except, of course, during holidays, when I do permit him freer access."
"There's no risk - or should I say ASTERISK? - of that," Anthea asserted, emphatically. "For I make him pay slavish homage to my cl*t*r*s four times a day - whether he wants to or not. When a man's down on his knees, with his tongue stuck up your c*nt, he's hardly in a position to adopt a high-and-mighty attitude. Although, of course," she added suggestively, "that does seem to get his c*ck HARD and ready for action!"
"Gosh, do you really think so?" From the tone of her response, it was clear that a tingle of interest was starting to tickle Doris's own intimate areas. She was already visibly on edge, sitting in a tense, CHAIRWOMAN attitude, with one swinging foot beating time to the inner, throbbing pulse of her repressed - but increasingly humid - FRINTON.
