But a Peruvian guy recently told me about the word 'concha', meaning (apart from shell) also to be a reference to a certain female bodypart and this being quite a rude word for it (if in fact there is such a thing as a very polite word for it without using euphemisms..).

I just wanted to check if this is indeed true and also, if this word is used like this in all Spanishspeaking countries?
In Chile, Perú and Argentina concha means also the female part, intimate at that.

There is nothing polite about it...

I do not know what other countries would use concha like that... maybe Uruguay and Paraguay but not sure.
