    • 2011, Oscar Conde, Lunfardo: un estudio sobre el habla popular de los argentinos, Taurus:
      La realización de un cunnilingus se traduce en las expresiones bajar a la cremería y bajar al pesebre —que recuerda la expresión argótica descendre à la cave, literalmente ‘bajar a la cueva’—, mientras una fellatio puede expresarse con los sintagmas tirar el fideo, tirar la goma, soplar la vela o, últimamente, hacer un pete.
