minge and ming mean quite different things, be careful with that one as one meaning of minge is, well, a ladys most private possession.

Dear dodyskin: I searched for "Scottish minging" and found a dozen sites, none of which dealt with 'the promised land." But I did find one that was both scatological as well as pudendal:
>I'm most pleased that you have started saying the >quant old Scottish term 'shite', as it was me that >used it often on the Scottish Unbroken site. Please >try to spread this word as much as possible - here are >some more: doss cunt (a stupid cunt); dobber (a cock); >radge (a faggot);ned (a stupid arsehole); jobby (a >shite); minging/honking (stinking). Thanks.

Then perhaps "minging" is something straight men and lesbians do to straight women and lesbians, respectively?!
I was thinking it must have something to do with the vases....[humble-e] [KIDDING-e!]
Let us go in peace to love and serve the board.

Hmmm...this is a tough one...a ladys most private possession? Let's see...a sharp tongue? Naw...well the victorian in me wants to say... - her hair. But no! in today's world , it's probably a less subtle part of her anatomy, like her... But no! you can't be possessive of a part of your own anatomy so it must be a part of her boyfriend's, or maybe even her husband's, anatomy...like in that novelty song by Chuck Berry...
My ming-a-ling, my ming-a-ling, My ming-a-ling is the cutest little thing.
No... little thing doesn't sound quite right...uh, a high limit credit card?...mmmmm...Hey Dodyskin! Can we have an extension? Maybe until next Monday?

Dody,
I know exactly what you're referring to for the lady with the word minge, and it's an old term and not one to be used in polite company.
But you are losing me on minging. Other than that obsolete mingling definition that you're obviously not looking for.
Since there are several documented definitions of minging, could you provide a general field for us to explore further to narrow down the particular definition you want us to find?

Minge (v. t.) To mingle; to mix. Minge (n.) A small biting fly; a midge. Minging (p. pr. & vb. n.) p. pr. & vb. n. 1. of Mince Mince \Mince\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. Minced; p. pr. & vb. n. Minging.] [AS. minsian to grow less, dwindle, fr. min small; akin to G. minder less, Goth. minniza less, mins less, adv., L. minor, adj. (cf. Minor); or more likely fr. F. mincer to mince, prob. from (assumed) LL. minutiare. ????. See Minish.] 1. To cut into very small pieces; to chop fine; to hash; as, to mince meat. --Bacon. 2. To suppress or weaken the force of; to extenuate; to palliate; to tell by degrees, instead of directly and frankly; to clip, as words or expressions; to utter half and keep back half of. I know no ways to mince it in love, but directly to say -- ``I love you.'' --Shak. Siren, now mince the sin, And mollify damnation with a phrase. --Dryden. If, to mince his meaning, I had either omitted some part of what he said, or taken from the strength of his expression, I certainly had wronged him. --Dryden. 3. To affect; to make a parade of. [R.] --Shak. http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=mingingFrom the above citations, I would gather that minging and mincing had once been closely related. But minging in the above in the sense of "to mince" is also obsolete. Would someone please comment on the third definition above: to affect .... immediately followed by the cryptic "to make a parade of"? Oh, and for the record, in OneLookdictionary, only three references included minging--that's three out of over 700.

Why does this whole thread sound like an informal Hogwash round? :-) Is it time to try it again officially?
