Guys, I need your help finding a/some specific term(s) in English.

I will be dumping the set of pic related, in exchange for the info I'm asking.

So, in my language there is this saying that translates literally to "Seven dogs to a single bone."
It is normally said when someone notices the situation of multiple people being after the same thing. Usually describes a situation of several desperate cringy males being after the same 5/10 girl. Is there a term for that in English?

I also recently found out about the term "Eskimo brother" - when two males acknowledge having been intimate with the same female and remain on good terms.

So, I'm after this kind of terms in English, for mere curiosity. Can anyone help?

Saved. It's hard to come up with everything you learn throughout your life, so I'll give you the ones off the top of my head.

Dirty Sanchez - stick finger in girl's pooper and paint moustache on her face

Meat flaps - vagina with big, stretched out lips. Also known as Arby's.

Docking - uncircumcised dick covers another dick. Wtf, lol.

Holy shit, that is crazy accurate. I've observed this (and am not proud to admit that a couple of times as early high school when I was a beta this was me). I've never heard of this term, but after living in my university's honors dorm and seeing some of the autism it had to offer (granted half the people were normal), this was definitely something I noticed. Where the girl isn't particularly attractive, but she's 'accessible' (she's into the same autistic shit the guys are like anime, video games, etc.). I wish there was an english word for it aside from sausage fest (which really just means lots of guys, not a lot of girls so not as specific), but I might start using 7 dogs/1 bone whenever it pops up.
>>
>>686703146
Anon makes a great hit with orbiters. That word is, however, slang. I really like it and hope it works for OP.

If you absolutely need an idiom, "an uphill battle" is widely used. Some other idioms that come close: "against all odds"; "easier said than done"; "fight a losing battle" and "go in over your head".
>>
>>686705958
Haha, thanks, cool to know I might be starting a trend.

>>686706499

Yeah, I think that term is the closest to the specific situation I described.

We don't have an exact match to that saying in English. If a bunch of guys were all after the same girl you could say they were drawn to her like a moth to a flame. That's an expression in English, but it doesn't necessarily convey that the guys seem desperate.

Someone else already suggested "sausage party," an event with too many guys not enough girls.

Another English expression is "too many cooks" as in too many cooks spoil the pot. Too many people involved ruins things.

Or "two's company, there's a crowd" meaning there is an extra person hanging around who should leave.

Another one that might be useful would be to call the girl "the bell of the ball," meaning she's the popular girl at the party.

op here

From what I see around me, this is pretty common with males. I don't see groups of girls taking turns flirting with the same guy.

Now, desperate guys are the worse. Whenever I see myself on a potential situation like that, I lose all my interest in the girl and let the "seven dogs" chase their "single bone". And the cringy thing about it is, they might even co-exist together, like literally taking turns flirting with the same girl. It borders on humiliating, I guess?

Anyway, "orbiters" definitely fits it.

Honestly OP, the seven dogs to one bone saying totally works as it is. Even though it sounds a little less smooth.

>>686706975
Yeah, to my knowledge this situation didn't have a word to describe it. What language and word? It basically sounds like term is a succinct equivalent to beta orbiters and a sausage fest.

>>686708135
Oh yeah, this definitely doesn't happen the other way around. Part of the reason is that most women are selective, whereas men need to be selected. A woman can have sex basically whenever she wants, whereas a man has to work for it (which is why slut and player are seen differently).

This kind of scenario almost always seems to occur when you have a woman with quirky interests (the same as the guys', so video games and stuff like that). Because of that the guys all see her as within their reach (even though she is just loving the attention and won't bang any of them). In college, I knew a girl who was infamous for this. I had 2-3 friends that were virtually in love with her and would bitch about being friendzoned. I had another friend that Meredith was totally in love with, though (I had a wide variety of friends, half were borderline autists and half were either in my frat or just bros).

> And the cringy thing about it is, they might even co-exist together, like literally taking turns flirting with the same girl. It borders on humiliating, I guess?

Absolutely. I definitely avoid this situation no matter what (not that the girl is generally particularly attractive). The whole thing is totally humiliating and I cringe at the idea.

Definitely stealing your seven dogs single bone expression into English. It is a good description that, when used at the right example, doesn't need to be explained even though it is not an existing English phrase.

You might like: Queen Bee - the girl at the top of the female social ladder
Slam board - female sex partner, somewhat demeaning and not that common
There are a ton of funny euphemisms for sex and others for masturbation.

Yes, you illustrated it perfectly.
