baby gravy
A crude and frequently humorous British and American vulgar slang term for semen.
Definitions
A crude and frequently humorous British and American vulgar slang term for semen. The term combines 'baby' (evoking reproductive purpose) with 'gravy' (a thick, viscous liquid), creating a deliberately grotesque and comical image. Typical register is laddish humour, shock comedy, and informal male banter. Essentially a jokey euphemism — not used in serious or clinical contexts. The humour relies on the contrast between the mundane domesticity of 'gravy' and the sexual referent.
The stand-up's bit about baby gravy got a huge laugh, which told him exactly what kind of crowd he was dealing with.
Comments
A vulgar slang term for semen, using the baby-making function plus the food metaphor gravy for comic effect. Belongs to a long tradition of crude food-metaphor nicknames for bodily fluids in English. Used in shock humor, crude comedy, and deliberately offensive speech. Not appropriate in polite or clinical settings. The name is designed to provoke and amuse simultaneously. The food metaphor is designed to provoke reactions — it works precisely because the combination of baby and gravy is both vivid and deliberately unsavory.
The censors blocked the scene, but the script made no secret of what baby gravy referred to.

Bull gravy carries three distinct American meanings. In Texas culinary usage it refers to cream gravy — the white flour-thickened gravy made from pan drippings, a staple of Southern cooking. As general slang it means nonsense or bullshit — verbal rubbish dressed up as substance. A cruder third sense refers to semen. The culinary sense is the most broadly accessible; the nonsense sense is colourful and useful; the three meanings occupy very different registers and context determines which is meant.
