jiggy-jig

jiggy-jig
n
sexual intercourse. Since at least the 18th century there have been various slang terms for copulation using ver-sions of the word jig. 'Jiggle' and 'jig-ger', for instance, are now archaic, but jig-a-jig has survived, probably because of its use by non-English speakers and those imitating lewd invitations in bro-ken English.
