  • What does "wanker" mean?

    I recently heard a child call another child a wanker. What does it mean?

    I looked it up on the internet and saw the attached file on my screen.

    Can anyone help? Is it a word Christians can use safely?

    It's confusing, because it's either:

    1. A guy who works for the mafia killing people.
    2. Term of endearment.
    3. A total insult.

    So with other words: it can mean completely different things... but what is it?

    Be wary of false Kumbaya Christians who use a highlighter and scissors to read the Bible. God wants us to read the lines, not between the lines. False Christians will go to Hell:
    Matthew 7:22
    Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
    Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

    Asking a Christian to prove God exists is like asking him to prove his phone rings because yours doesn't. Make that call yourself! Dial 0800-get-on-your-knees-and-pray.

    It's a bad word. Wanker is a person who masturbates (wanks). Not a nice word to use. People use it when they want to insult someone gravely.

      Perhaps it's a misspelling and it's really a winker? I searched and searched through the scriptures and could not find this wanker.

      Psalms 35:19:Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
      Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell. Proverbs 23:13

        Can you please post your filth elsewhere and let us True Christians(tm) debate an important issue in peace?

          Are you serious?!?! The guy asked what the word meant and whether or not it's safe to use, and I gave him an answer. It's a British slang, and I'm quite familiar with it.
          You have absolutely no reason to attack me, Cranky old man, since I gave an honest answer to a simple question, without any hidden thoughts.

          If you don't believe that, you can google it and see that I'm right and completely honest in this matter.

          He asked if it's safe to use, and it's not. Or would you prefer it if I said "Oh sure, it's nothing, it's completely safe, teach your children that word and tell them to use it all the time"??

            It says right there that's also a term of endearment. Besides, KIDS were using the term, so it's obviously not something sexual.

            It's looks like we have an infestation of monosexuals...

              Look, if you don't believe me, maybe you'll believe The Thesaurus

              Children DO use it because they hear it from their parents, older siblings and friends, not because they know what it means. It's same as calling someone a d**k. And children use it, too.

              Cock also means a rooster, but people still consider it a bad word, don't they?

              I get it, you people don't like me, and I don't blame you, nor do I care, but I don't like injustice.

                haha.. a cock is clearly a rooster. I've NEVER heard it used in another other way. When I go out to find my cock in the mornings, he enjoys a good stroking. There is NOTHING derogatory about it. Please, pull your mind out of the gutter.

                  So what do you think a cock fight is exactly?

                  Please, explain to us in your own words, what a cock fight is.

                      So your point is that people took perfectly fine and healthy words and turned them into something depraved and vile?

                        I fail to see what point you are trying to make. This is a serious discussion here, why do you bring your pointless quips into a Christian conversation?

                          I did think of following qamarun's links to double check his 'wanker' story, but then I remembered Satan trying to lead Jesus astray in the desert, and have decided to disregard his comments as foolish atheist nonsense.

                          Back to the important matter at hand, whilst channel hopping between God Channel and God Channel +1 the other day, I came across some strange cinematic event where two Japanese shout "WANG-KAAA!" amongst other heathen expulsions of audio whilst attempting to beat each other to death. Maybe the children were attempting to imitate this odd behaviour?

                            It says that Tony Blair is a piffleing wanker, so it must not have anything to do with masturbation.

                              got this from wikipedia.. just to clear things up

                              The term wanker originated from British slang in the 1940s[1]. Wanker literally means "one who wanks (masturbates)". In modern usage it is usually a general insult. It conveys contempt, not commentary on sexual habits. Wanker has similar meanings and overtones to American pejoratives like jerk,[2] and jerk-off. One connotation implies egotistical and self-indulgent behaviour. This is the dominant meaning in New Zealand and Australia[3].
