What Does Gooch Mean?

“Gooch” is a slang term that refers to the area of skin between the anus and the genitals, also known as the perineum. The term is often used humorously or informally to describe this part of the body, and its usage can be considered crude or vulgar depending on the context.

While “gooch” is commonly used in casual or joking conversations, it is interchangeable with other slang terms like “taint” or “grundle,” all of which refer to the same anatomical area.

Origin of the Term Gooch

Gooch found usage online during the late 1990s and early 2000s. Its actual origins are unknown, but it would appear to have been a modification of the word “cooch”, which is slang for vagina. Gooch replaced the C with G, whereas the G stands for “Guy”. Therefore Gooch would mean “Guy Cooch”, which of course doesn’t make sense biologically as men do not have vaginas so it is therefore referring to the area between the anus and testicles.

Other Meanings

Gooch does not have any other meaning besides referring to the area between a man’s anus and testicles.
