What is this thread about?
Obviously, from the title, this thread is about :
Acronyms You Refuse to Use Because They A Weird and You Would Not Normally Say Them Out Loud
duh
Anyway, here is my list and explanations if I feel they are warranted. Feel free to post your own list. I am amusing myself during lunch.
AF - do you guys really say "Aunt Flow" out loud? Who came up with this expression? Did someone have a particularly nasty aunt named Florence and one day they decided, "You know what? I'll teach her. To thousands of women, her name will be synonymous with menstruation. HA HA HA ha HA haH hahahahahaha" while also curling up into a ball and rocking in the corner or a room somewhere?
BD - Bed dancing or baby dancing. Either way it's silly. I don't do anything that even remotely resembles dancing during sex. Maybe it's just me. Baby dancing reminds me of those creepy videos from a few years back.
DTD - Same number of letters as sex, so what are we saving here, really? Also, it sounds like June Cleaver is trying to talk about sex but afraid to actually say the word.
EWCM - Never ever ever would I say this out loud. Nor would I ever talk to someone about the state of the fluids in that area of my body. It's just not right. 
DH/DS/D? - I never call my husband darling or dear, even though he is both of those things. Same thing for my son. I literally read "Darling Husband" every time I see "DH" in a post. DF and DB always throw me off track because I have to stop and think about it, "Wait, is she saying Darling Friend...what starts with F that applies here? F-ff-f-f--f-f-fffffff...oh fiance!" Yeah, it's like that. 
That's my list for now. I know there are more, but I can't think of them right now.

This is a fun post  I have nothing to contribute, just wanted to say that "my husband Zach" and I both say "Baby dance" to each other. We think that one is really cute... When I'm waiting to ovulate, he'll snuggle up to my neck sometimes and ask if it's time to baby dance yet

That made me laugh out loud!!! Thanks!!!!
It took me about two weeks to figure out that people really didn't hate their husbands - I thought it meant "**** husband".
I totally agree, if the people that know me knew that discussions existed about gooey discharge - they would think I was nuttso!!!

Actually, I do have a friend I talk about my cm to. We're very open with each other. The only thing that we really hold back are the details of sex with our husbands.
and I call my husband "Husband" all the time. lol

DTD -- my 12 year old cousin refers to going poop as "doing the deed" ("Ugh! It stinks in the bathroom! Did somebody do the deed?!!") so this one definitely throws me off a bit 
Also on other boards here on JM when ladies refer to either "breast milk" or a "birth mother" as BM it just kills me. I used to work in healthcare and BM stands for one thing...BOWEL MOVEMENT! 
I did used to discuss my CM in graphic detail with a friend who was also TTC for a long time (she is now pregnant so those discussions have ceased).

I also think of BM as "bowel movement," so I don't think I'd use that one either.

I love this! When I first got to JM, I had to learn a new language. This thread taught me "BD." My DDC/ PR always used "DTD."
LOL!

I don't like the "term" DH. I always have to use his name or say my husband. It sounds silly IMO haha.
He will see posts on here and say "What is BD?" then I have to explain...kinda awkward haha.

I feel the same about BM -- bowel movement! We talk about BM a lot in my anatomy class, where it stands for "Basement membrane," which has to do with cells and crap.
