Etymology

Romanian dictionaries generally mark the origin of "pulă" as uncertain. One proposal ties it to Latin "pulla", the feminine of "pullus" (young animal, chick). That same Latin word gave Spanish "polla", which independently became vulgar slang for the male member, so the shift from "young hen" to a taboo body-part term is a known pattern in Romance languages. No PIE root is agreed upon for this specific sense, so it is best left unstated.
