Exactly!!! That album was well design to piss off a lot of people that had a problem with Dirty Mind. | |

but hey,I was only 11 years old ----- I do not know anyone black that uses that term today much less back in 1981. I don't think that is a popular term in the black community. A lot of sexual slang I did not know about until I started to read Jakie Collins books. | |

To hell with societies rules. Um, no. First off, you can't masturbate another person, male or female. Masturbation is something you do to yourself; it's manual self pleasure. As soon as there's two people involved, it's no longer masturbation, it's someone else getting you off. Second, "jacking" in the phrase "jack off" or "jacking off" refers to the motion made by the hand when it stimulates the penis. Guess what you don't do when you pleasure a woman with your hand? Make that particular "jacking" motion. So you literally cannot jack off a girl. This has nothing to do with "society's rules" as you've both put it -but it has everything to do with the English language and it's proper usage. These aren't obscure words, people. It shouldn't be that hard to figure out. [Edited 4/17/05 22:29pm] "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

Actually, he does more often than not use the language properly. He just spells it goofy. Nice try. 
afterthought: love that pic, btw! [Edited 4/17/05 23:29pm] "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

Jack U Off is about a girl, whether u like it or not, whether it makes sense 2 u or not.
 Goodnight, sweet Prince. | |

SquarePeg said: True story (I think):
When this album came out, Michael Jackson asked one of his friends what "Jack U Off" meant. When he told him, Mike went "ugh, that's disgusting...I could never write a song about that". Yeah,I heard that story
Mike was a huge fan of the 'Controversy' album,but he didn't even know what "Jack U Off" meant,lol. | |

Another example of Prince trying to confuse listeners: the Vanity 6 song "Wet Dream".Typically,a "wet dream" is something that a guy has. | |

He was trying to "come out" but was unable to just say it, so he through in the girl thing just becuase.
The fact of the matter is that fem gay men call each other girls all the time, and this is what Prince was referring to--a fem gay man. Prince didn't aquire his tastes for more butch gay men until Jerome, and even then, he tried to fem him out. | |

You're not following your own advice. The term "jack off" is a bastardization of the word ejaculation which comes from the latin word ejaculor which simply means "to throw out." As I suggested earlier, get thee to a library and read up on clitoral ejaculation (there are three types of female ejaculations by the way). Hand motion? that's laughable. If today "jacking off" is known for the hand motion, it's because that's how you stimulated the penis to ejaculation. That's NOT the origin of the phrase or the complete meaning.
