Note levres petites/grandes for "labia minora/majora."

Then re: orteils, there's the naughty idiom avoir les doigts de pieds en
eventail/en bouquet de violettes.
("to enjoy a great orgasm" lit. "to have one's 'toes' spread like a
fan/a bunch of violets.")

In my Scouse dialect, "flat heels" denote a promiscuous, non-lesbian
female.

Dmitri: Switzerland or USA for the World Cup? One never knows!! But my
euros are on Brasil.
