I thought some of the responses were funny. Perhaps it didn't tickle your funny bone but this is a public platform expect all kinds of responses because people are different the perceive differently they understand differently and they respond differently so grant them the right to be.

I found this thread entertaining and funny. To the OP, I think your intent was achieved.

Out of curiosity, what would the Afrikaans acronymn for MILF be?

One time many years ago heard an arikaans guy say he doesnt like the word milf.. He just called them ..."mmmm"

the "m" sound just kinda rumbled in the throat..

asked him why "mmmm" he replied ..

"mama(mammas) maak my mal"

Never heard any other word used except milf... so just assumed its a him thing and nit an actual thing;)

The English saying "make love not war" has an interesting Afrikaans equivalent.
"Steek, maar moenie doodskeek nie"
