If it's maintained better, well...keep it.

A made-up sex move which has, apparently, never been recorded. Cited authorities include Urban Dictionary (so it must be true, then). Most discussions in anything even approaching a reliable source seem to restrict themselves to saying it's unlikely. The article as written seems to be little more than an excuse to link to articles like dildo - I don't think even Roger's Profanisaurus would include this. I reckon it's complete bollocks from start to finish, although it got kept here. Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] 22:33, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, extensive usage in common parlance[1], and precedent for keepage per Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/Teabagging. Adrian Lamo · (talk) · (mail) · 22:52, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

- Delete. Come on, the Tony Danza Variation? This is sheer UrbanDictionary nonsense and has no place in an encyclopedia. StarryEyes 23:37, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Caveat:I am not thrilled with the idea of putting my name in support next to anything related to donkey punching. However, I must vote my wikiconscience here for a few reasons. First of all, the teabagging precedent (God, am I citing something called the teabagging precedent?) and the previous AfD show a developing consensus on such topics. Secondly, the article itself has developed beyond that of a dicdef (if the article stunk, I would probably vote for transwikification). Tertiarily, it is not a neologism or bull shit, as I have heard this term since at least 1997. So, yea, save the donkey punch (note to StarryEyes: I do agree that anything containing the words Tony Danza Variation is highly suspect). Youngamerican 00:00, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Current status as an urban legend is more likely than not due to a lack of verifiable sources...it would not surprise me to see reports of it in documented abusive relationships. Also, the teabagging precedent, however silly it might sound, is indeed important here. - CorbinSimpson 04:01, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
