I noticed that there was a lack of parity between the entries for fellatio and cunnilingus. I believe the entry for the former is correct, whereas the latter is not. The two entries are cross-linked on Wikitionary, but they are not linked correctly. Specifically,

  • cunnilingus: "fellatio" is listed as the antonym of "cunnilingus". (I do not particularly agree with that, but that might not be relevant).
  • fellatio: "cunnilingus" is listed as the coordinate of "fellatio"

This disparity was introduced as of edit 2169646.

I checked the definition for coordinate term. I believe that "fellatio" and "cunnilingus" could be defined as coordinates, but only if both entries include a hypernym term for each. A suitable hypernym would be oral sex. However, at this time, there is no hypernym section for "fellatio", nor "cunnilingus". I am enough of a novice with Wikitionary that I don't want to create too many new things, I would rather make incremental changes. That is why I will change this page, so that it doesn't list "fellatio" as an antonym, but rather, as a coordinate term. If that seems acceptable to those more experienced with Wikitionary, I can go ahead with the hypernym change, or perhaps someone else will take care of things from this point. --FeralOink (talk) 17:22, 30 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

I agree that they are certainly not antonyms. Equinox 18:25, 30 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
