Australians ~ What does the word 'Toe-ee' mean to you?
(I've written it how it is pronounced ~ 'toe' then an 'ee' sound). Does it have any 'sexual' connotation? Would you be angry if someone said this about you (a man saying it about a woman?).
Or feel it was derogatory or negative?
Thank you for all your answers ~ this is very useful! I appreciate your responses.

I've heard it used to both describe being a bit anxious or angry, OR being a bit sexually frustrated. My friend always says....yeah......haven't had "any" for a while....gettin' a bit toey.....
Not derogatory or negative...

Always thought it meant getting a bit impatient, like a horse that wants to break into a gallop is getting a bit toe-ee.
But then I am a recent import, if there is a sexual connotation I miss it entirely.
Cameltoe is a totally different proposition, I wonder if that is what you might be thinking of. If so you will find a host of definitions in the urban dictionary, and the answer is a resounding yes to sexual context.

Toey is a horseracing term which refers to the behavioural tendency of horses to dance on the point of the hoof when they are nervous, anxious or agitated. Means the same as feeling on edge. Definitely an Aussie/Kiwi term as I've used this in the UK and people haven't got a clue what you mean.

Like an athlete at the start of a race, or a horse in the starting gate who is obviously eager to get going. That's my understanding of "toey." It is neither derogatory or negative, and would not be used in reference to a female unless she was an athlete. I suppose it could be used if a woman, or any person, had a tendency to take offence every time you said something they didn't like but that is not sexist.

Sorry, Thing, doesn't ring a bell with me. I've heard people refer to an angry person as "toey", but that has no sexual connotations.

It simply means you are very very horny.... and ready for sex.
Were you toe-ee? if you were i dont see an issue if thats what you have been called - of course it would depend on your relationship to the person who said it.
its not a negative word

I guess it depends on the context its used in, but my first response was 'sexually frustrated', and I wouldn't be impressed if someone said it to me.

toe-ee means this:
frustrated sexually.
i have had that said about me by my partner. ie "feeling a bit toe-ee are we?"
he said it to be cheeky.
i didn't feel it was derogatory, but he was being cheeky to try and wind me up.
