SEXILED: past-participle of the verb sexile (originating from the mix of words sex and exile to form a cumulative, collective meaning)
1. To be banished from one's room (most often, a single-space dormitory room) so that the roommate may engage in private sexual intercourse. Generally speaking, cunninglingus, fellatio, and most forms of foreplay also constitute grounds for sexiling.
recently, much thought has gone into the process of sexiling [sexilation, if you will], just how one would come to an agreed-upon 'sexile time', the morality of such a situation, and the sexiled themselves. www.thesexiled.com seems to offer some support for sexile victims; stories, merchandise, safe sex tips... which doesn't seem too helpful for the sexiled now does it?
*other [less relevant] examples of portmanteaus (two words blended together) found in the english language include:
ebonics, jazzercise, moob, and skort.
**and while on the topic of words in the english language, let me just point out the unprecedented excellence of DICTIONARY.COM
where do i begin describing this magical feat of resources?
-not only is it a dictionary, but it is also a thesaurus, encyclopedia, AND translator
-"free tools" like confusing words and nearby words are able to make the densest of minds seem accomplished and even witty
-dictionary.com never judges a misspelled word, it merely asks "did you mean...?"
you can almost hear its soft chuckle as you click the correct word, "oh so-and-so, what a clever little jokester you are! spelling precipice incorrectly, what a laugh."
