punany

well, originally the word “punany” or “punani” was used in india — its in the kama sutra — to describe the female s-x organ.

indian laborers were used to build roads in jamaica and the caribbean during the 1930’s, 40’s and 50’s so a lot of indian slang made its way into the jamaican vernacular.

there are literally thousands of jamaican dancehall records glorifying the punany….probably rivaled only by ganja songs. ganja is also an indian-based word.
punany – the female reproductive organ. slag meaning p-ssy. noramlly a very good p-ssy. used in other words such as punany f-nny.
the punany was great, we went at it for hours.
sweet & tastful p-ssy
the punany was good
a sweet or sacred p-ssy…used in carribean slang!
my punany was sacred and had only been touched by me myself and i.
mispelled version of the word “punani,” the kanaka maoli (native hawaiian) word for the female genatalia. literal translation is beautiful and/or splendid flower.

the origin is often miscredited as coming from jamaica. this can be attributed to the word “puntun,” later pr-nounced “poontang,” thought to originate in west africa and making it’s way to the west indies.
it’s spelled punani not punany.
one of several jamaican words for v-g-n-. pr-nounced puh-naah-nee

this word was popularized by jamaican immigrants in north america and england.

the word itself reached widespread popularity in jamaica during the 80s with such dancehall songs as admiral bailey’s “gimmie punany” and shabba ranks’ “love punany bad”.

many jamaicans accredit the indians with creating this term, therefore it is worthwhile looking at a possible derivation from hindi / bhojpuri which most of the indians that came as indentured servants to jamaica spoke. the word “phunni” or “phunno” is a word in hindi for a boy’s p-n-s. (the word puny is also used in jamaica to mean v-g-n-). an equivalent term in hindi is “nuuni”. putting these two terms together gives phunninuuni or phunnonuuni. punany would be a simplification of that pr-nunciation. it is possible that the hindi speakers coming to jamaica began to use this term not only for a boy’s p-n-s but also for the v-g-n- or that jamaicans of african decent adopted the word as a word for v-g-n- since it already referred to small genitalia.
“gimmie punany, want punany”

that girl has a fat punany
i first heard the word punany from a young jamaican man at howard university. it sounded like such a beautiful word for female genitalia, i adopted it for my poetry project in 1995. “the punany poets” celebrate female s-xuality and promote safer s-x ands-xual empowerment through erotic literature and theatrics.
the punany poets are featured on hbo real s-x 24 and 26 demonstrating punany theater. “punany dream” (performed in the segment) is a fantasy piece about a lonely house wife who m-st-rb-t-s while her hard working husband is away at work.
