It may be gender neutral, but it is an unfortunate reference to a medical condition that is pretty insensitive… I have a friend whose husband is in the hospital now struggling with infections and surgical complications.
‘Douche’ is so entrenched in the vernacular that it has even had the spelling dumb downed (as in ’ doosh ’ , and in any case, it was always voluntary… or the French word for ’ shower ‘.
I don’t think ‘cobag’ is a particularly appropriate replacement.
Just saying.
