WORD NOTE sexercise There is a case for this word replacing exercise altogether. The Oxford English Dictionary gives the secondary meaning of an "exercise designed to enhance sexual attractiveness or improve sexual performance, " but it is hard to think of a form of "personal exercise " which aims at anything else. It has a more specific definition, however; that of sexual activity "perceived as exercise. " Of all the pointless mid-twentieth-century additions to our workout vocabularies, this is the most worthy of continuation in the language. — ZS Conversational, opinionated, and idiomatic, these Word Notes are an opportunity to see a working writer's perspective on a particular word or usage.
