A while ago, I discovered an old meaning of the word “perverted”, and I added it to Wiktionary. Here’s my definition, with the two demonstrative quotes I included.

Unless you’ve read Maxwell, there’s basically no way you’ve heard the term. It wasn’t even common in its day. But recently I realized that I’ve actually sort of heard this use, in a way, and so have you. Look at this ribbon.

At the point this twisted ribbon crosses the dotted line, it reverses chirality. Each side is a sort of mirror image of the other. The name for this phenomenon of a twisted object reversing chirality, you will remember, is “tendril perversion”.

Wikipedia’s article on tendril perversion used to have a notice at the top, reading “This article is about the geometric phenomenon. For the pornographic genre, see tentacle erotica.” You know, for the benefit of people who wanted to read about tentacle porn but typed in “tendril perversion” as their best attempt at what it could be called. That recently got removed due to suspicion that it was “a joke” and “unnecessarily obscene.”

Fortunately, the tentacle erotica article still opens with “This article is about the pornographic genre. For the geometric phenomenon, see tendril perversion.” So they’re being considerate of people who want to read about telephone cords getting messed up, but who misremember the term for that as “tentacle erotica.”
