It's had the same meaning since at least 400 years ago. So I doubt that's true.

yeah if this following definition has been the same definition for hundreds of years then clearly the town was named by a drunken horny man.

n. pl. dil·do, also dil·does
An object having the shape and often the appearance of an erect penis, used in sexual stimulation

haha oh man. Well I'm from and have always lived in NF. Last winter I lived in Gander for work (about an hour from work) .We had to do alot of presentations and such in the area so I've been to dildo several times. Our supervisor told us a story about how someone actually slid off dildo run in a work vehicle (dildo run is like a bunch of islands connected by bridges and shit). So in winter the town is knows as "The Slippery Dildo"

Dildos are the traditional name for the two round pegs in a dory (small traditional rowboat) which braces the oars when rowing. A dildo is also an object often shaped like an erect penis used for sexual stimulation. There is speculation that the town was named after from a location in Spain or Portugal; the name of a tree; or the unusual (phallic) shape of the bay.

Dildo was founded in the early 1800s and settled by the Reids, Prettys and Smiths to exploit the abundance of marine resources such as fish, whales, and seals. Fish processing and local small business are major employers. Also during the inital development of the town, a fish hatchery was erected which was the first in North America and the largest in the world at that time. Remains of this can still be seen on Dildo Island today. In 1878 a Church of England (Anglican) Church was built and served the Town for over 80 years, until it was replaced by the present structure in 1964. During the year 1932 the German flying boat Do-X , which was the largest plane in the world landed in Dildo Arm

"Captain James Cook and his assistant Michael Lane, who mapped Newfoundland in the 1760s, often displayed a sense of humour in the place names they chose, and were not above selecting names that might offend overly sensitive readers. "

Captain Cook was thus the most badass explorer of all time.

I wish you could refuse Welsh buyers on eBay, with the time it takes to write out an address label I'd have been quicker walking to Wales.

As if there's anything gay about penetrating your bro's white hairy ass after he presents it to you in such vulnerable manner.
