How it's used
Literal usage refers to the large snake, but the term is frequently employed as a crude, phallic metaphor in casual male banter. Context is everything, as the shift from a biological subject to a vulgar one is usually signaled by tone or the social setting. Avoid using it in polite company unless you are strictly discussing wildlife.
