anyone was making a big deal about it.

I just said I think people tend to feel more uncomfortable because (aside from it being the genitalia) the sound of the terms is more unusual than other (commonly mentioned body parts).

How often do people speak of their uvula? I'll bet most people don't even know what it is.

That was a clever comparison though. : )
