Rfv-sense: condom. This sense has some kind of existence in mentions, but it seems to be nothing more than a purported Japanese pronunciation spelling of rubber. Urban Dictionary backs this up, as does a book called "Doubly Gross Jokes" that includes the joke "What's 'plegnant?' What Japanese girls get if their boyfriends don't use a lubber". Just about every word containing "r" or "l" could be respelled into this kind of pronunciation spelling, so I don't think it's worthy of inclusion on that basis only. I can't find a single durably archived use of the term as a general-purpose word for "condom". This, that and the other (talk) 03:48, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
