I couldn’t find any results on Google Books, and only one on Groups. --Romanophile ♞ (contributions) 06:05, 2 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

@Dmol, can you explain how you found this term? --Romanophile ♞ (contributions) 06:09, 2 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

I've heard of this, but it's definitely difficult to attest. Jimmy Savile (UK celebrity later "outed" as a paedophile) supposedly used to talk about "gamaroosh", and that word can be found all over the Web. There are a lot of spellings and it's tricky to meet CFI. Equinox ◑ 06:44, 2 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
It seems to be a borrowing (or a hypothetical borrowing) from French gamahucher, which helpfully states it's derived from itself. Renard Migrant (talk) 10:55, 3 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
I have no records of this spelling - whereas gamahuche is very commonly attested in Victorian porn. Perhaps it was misspelled when it wad added back in 2005 (when there was no entry for gamahuche and the web may not have had many examples). - Sonofcawdrey (talk) 22:28, 7 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
