There's a poll over in my RL journal (too cheap to pay for two journals...) Sorry, friends locked. But I'd like input from you, the porn reading public.
I was going to say just about the same thing as spyderqueen (sans the actual grammatical reasoning, though I agree with it).
I dislike "cum" as a verb, as a description of action. I'd even say it puts me off. As a noun, I'm okay with either "cum" or "come."
Incidentally, the OED includes "to experience sexual orgasm" as a definition of the verb form of "come" and "semen ejaculated at sexual climax" as a definition of the noun form of "come." No such listings for "cum." Not that I think the OED should necessarily guide anyone in this instance--just thought it was interesting. :-)
I am intrigued. Does the OED include the word coniption? :D As I said above, I believe I will be deferring to the overwhelming public opinion that "cum" is stupid and annoying. *sigh*
