I'm not sure of the definition. I added a couple cites that might point to more than one definition. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 09:06, 24 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
I added three cites for the original meaning (one of which was one found by you, @Metaknowledge ). I also found another one for the sense of a quickie, which I added to the cites page. Everything else I saw looked like a scanno or an elision of "fuck let" In uncitable texts, I find another meaning, most likely a synonym for a sexually available woman or girl.

The 2010 quotation looks to me like a typo or scanno for "fucklet's": "Shit/fuck—let's try." By the way, it would be helpful if you provide page numbers or links, or both, when adding quotations—it is hard to verify the quotations otherwise. —Mr. Granger (talkcontribs) 19:09, 24 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
Right you are, my bad. Kiwima (talk) 21:10, 24 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
Cited three senses. Could not cite the fourth sense ("quickie"). -Cloudcuckoolander (talk) 18:44, 25 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
RFV-passed (except the uncited sense, which was removed). Thanks again, Cloudcuckoolander! - -sche (discuss) 22:27, 1 February 2016 (UTC)Reply


Sexism[edit]

you claim: A woman with whom one shares, or hopes to share, a sexual encounter.
correct: A person with whom one shares, or hopes to share, a sexual encounter; usually not for strong personalities.

Actually, I think it is a woman, not any person. That is because the -let suffix connotes either small or female. Kiwima (talk) 23:40, 22 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
