There might be some variation in how frequently it is used in french to mean something other than something sexual, but I don't think it's a very big variation going by the comments on the french page.

All the uses of the term that are recognized are "proper" uses. There's only uses that people might be more used to hearing, and, honestly, if people always limited themselves to the uses of language that are more frequently used by common people, the quality of language would take a nose dive.
If you think that they are wrong or not proper, you might want to tell that to the authors and books that use terms like that outside of their sexual meaning.
Heck, salagir might even have used the term in particular to give the more perverted of his audience a laugh due to it's multiple meanings.
Agreed. That bimbo Goku must have had a jolly time at the gay orgy. It would have been awful to have such fun! He being so financially naughty he deserves a chance to indulge in meat and drink! I do hope, however, that King Cold does not win his next fight. He is, after all, extremely pretty.

The sad thing is the amount of people who wouldn't get what you are trying to do, not the fact that a person might choose to use words in various ways and meanings.
Are we too old to enjoy new Dragon Ball movies/series?

Guys, I'm going to be straight with you. If you feel the show has gotten 'silly' ... it hasn't. You're just 'too old for this shit'. Seriously, 95% of the people in those boards do not fit the target demographic of the show, so don't expect the show to be 'everything you hoped for'. I'm referring to the people here who expect Super to be rich with dark moments, serious storytelling, meaningful characters etc etc. It won't. It's a show for kids. A show for kids being kids. Everyone in those boards has a manchild in him/her, clamoring to get out, and that's fine. But having unrealistic expectations (such as believing the show grew up alongside you) is naïve at best. Honestly, do you take seriously a story where the supposed God of Destruction halts his urges to blow up stuff in order to eat ice cream sundae? That's the show's silliness at full force, take it for what it is. The show hasn't matured one bit, so don't expect it too. Again, I'm not saying that's a bad thing. I'm saying *that* is DB and always will be.

Just saying.
And? My location or even nationality has nothing to do with anything. Either my arguments are valid or they aren't, and I've already presented a detailed explanation for what I stated, links and all. Refute the arguments if you think they are invalid.
Like I said, there are several comments in the french page with basically the same problem as the english version, for example:
- "beurk une orgie"
- "Orgie....? "
- "Alors, qui va gueuler pour l'utilisation du mot "orgie" ?"
- "Une orgie est une réunion où l'on se livre à toutes sortes d'excès. L'étymologie se réfère aux fêtes organisées dans la Grèce antique en l'honneur de Dionysos. C'est à partir du XVIIe siècle que le terme détient une connotation sexuelle."

He witnessed Cell explode during his fight against Hirudegarn a short while ago .

So I'm sure this is pretty obvious, but calling that Cold "convinces" U16 Bra to give herself a handicap by not going SSJ. Bonus points if he pulls the "Freeza not using his hands" condition. XD

Or he'll tell her to put those heavy clothes back on and make them 4 tons. lol
I hope Mary Sue, I mean Bra gets knocked out by King Cold. Really sick of her already.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

Since she is obviously bitchy, she is not a Mary Sue. A Mary Sue is basically perfect, Bra is just very powerful and she is worse than the other characters in pretty much everything else, even control of her power.
And Goku. She is Vegetto daughter Literaly every Saiyan act like retard at one point, so it can be forgiven, plus...it won't end too well for Cold

We can't be sure about that - it's a vision of the future but it doesn't specify the time (or even whether his injuries are due to a tournament fight or something completely different).
Well, in filler, in the Buu saga, base Vegetto was able to put up a fight against Gohan-buu... And even going just by the manga, SSJ Vegetto was much more powerful than Gohan-Buu so it's easy to assume that Gohan-Buu wouldn't be much more powerful than base Vegetto in the manga... So there's a big margin for how powerful base Bra can be here.
