Etymology: "Spooge" is a slang word for semen, and the source places its appearance in the 1980s. It is generally regarded as imitative, meaning its sound was shaped to suggest the thing it names, with the soft, wet-sounding "sp" and "ooge" evoking a viscous, sloppy substance. Words built this way often belong to informal or vulgar registers rather than to any established vocabulary, and this one is no exception. Because it is a slang coinage without a traceable older ancestor, there is no earlier meaning to recover or dramatic shift to describe. Its sense has remained fixed since it appeared, and it is used mainly in crude speech and in coarse humour.
