I've discussed this with some colleagues. We understand the first part of this compound word but we are unclear on the meaning of the second part.— This unsigned comment was added by 24.91.205.157 (talk) at 14:24, 18 October 2008‎.

The entry now links to a suffix entry which should help you. I once thought that the first part, "dick", meant "penis", and the second part, "wad", meant like a wad of tissue paper, so the word "dickwad" means something like a penis ejaculated into a wad of tissue papers, creating a dickwad; however, I guess this isn't really what the word means. --User123o987name (talk) 11:09, 25 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
