Chuffed

The word means "Proud". The derivation refers to the state of the male member, which has been *manipulated* - *chuffed* - in such a way to make it so (if you see what I mean). It's a slang word from the 18th century brothels of London, of which there were many. (AIH, there are many other claimed derivations for it, and they all refer to that area of the anatomy in one way or another. A google search will no doubt reveal some.)
