trekken

Dutch, RFV-sense of "to jerk off, masturbate", which could be either relatively rare, an error or vandalism. ←₰-→ Lingo ^Bingo _Dingo (talk) 15:09, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

I see a use here and perhaps here, so this is not simply an error or vandalism. This is not easy searching. However, there are many occurrences on the web (like here), so it may be less rare than a book search suggests. Also, apparently the agent noun trekker can be used as an invective, and I guess it is a synonym of rukker.  --Lambiam 19:52, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Another use.  --Lambiam 20:49, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

Looks like a variant of aftrekken. Compare reddit.com/r/cirkeltrek vs. reddit.com/r/circlejerk, too. — Mnemosientje (t · c) 11:13, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

The point is, how common is this usage? Has it entered slang or are these ad hoc formations or maybe misconstructions from aftrekken? I think three durable cites are a reasonable minimum threshold. Searching for google books:"trekken" masturberen or google books:"trekken" rukken doesn't seem promising for finding citations. ←₰-→ Lingo ^Bingo _Dingo (talk) 10:03, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

Sense "to masturbate"

Recently RFD-deleted the sense for lack of clear and durable attestations, but wanted to note for future attestation sleuths that in episode 2 ("De nazaten") of the documentary trilogy "Het zaad van Karbaat", around 36:45, a guy uses "trekken" to mean "to masturbate", so there's another durable attestation. Probably at some point the sense could be adequately cited, if someone volunteers to the job — Mnemosientje (t · c) 22:26, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
