Talk:Loin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

dude, there should definitely be an ambiguation page here.. i mean loin means a lotta things.. :x

agreed - link from "Shire horse" to "loin" doesn't want to redirect to "loincloth"!! MightyWarrior 14:42, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Moreover, there should be a picture / diagram of a human with loin marked. The reason is that I am not sure if loin means the back, the side, the front of the genital area. Mormons annoint the loin in endowment ceremonies: where is this part of the body? source: "The head, eyes, nose, neck, shoulders, arms, loins, legs, feet, etc. are all washed and blessed." http://home.teleport.com/~packham/temples.htm User: --name withheld--

[edit] Derogatory term

I can find no references of the web to the use of "loin" as a derogatory term, therefore I have removed this sentence. If there are references to this usage, could they be noted here. MightyWarrior 20:36, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Questionable statement

"The phrase "Gird one's loins" means to wrap a belt around one's waist to prepare for action"- what exactely is this supposed to mean? I have removed the statement until a better written versions is used. Signature^brendel 00:33, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
