Gaumenzäpfchen.

Didn't know I'd be thinking about a "palate suppository" when I woke up today, but here it is.

Delightful and relatable

The word Zäpfchen itself is the diminutive of Zapfen, a stud, peg or pin. E.g. the fruits of needle trees are also called Zapfen, Tannen-, Fichten- or Kiefernzapfen. So Gaumenzäpfchen is a small stud dangling down from the palate.

Anything can be a sex thing if you're brave enough

That's called a "clacker" where I come from.

Reminds me of the Flammenwerfer!
