Latin word
What about the Latin word putō, putāre? UNIT A4B1 (talk) 18:20, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Older references use "putu" (like those referenced in GCF Book's Turn of the Century) - perhaps that is how it was originally spoken, or maybe so there will be less association with "puto" in the Latin context. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 112.198.77.120 (talk) 21:53, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Beware of the Spanish meaning for "puto"
"Puto" is a rude Spanish word for "gay". It is tempting to edit the entry to insert jokes, so any suspicious addition should be carefully monitored. I removed "Puto malcohido", which is a Spanish joke for "gay guy having been badly fucked" and "Puto mamon", which is another joke for "gay guy lover of giving oral sex", neither of which was properly referenced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Guillep2k (talk • contribs) 12:39, February 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Any suspicious additions... and deletions apparently. Like yours. -- Obsidi ♠ n Soul  17:09, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, apologies for that. *turns red* 'puto mamón' does seem to be an expletive in other Spanish speaking countries (not 'gay guy' tho. As puto is just the masculine form of 'puta'). I do not know where or how you got malcohido though. One thing I do know is that mamon is certainly not an expletive in filipino, as is puto. Puto mamon is usually simply known as 'mamon'. A simple google search will show you that it's actually how that food item is called. It doesn't help that the filipino puto mamon is pronounced exactly like spanish puto mamón.
 * I am however not so sure about puto malcohado (as I've never heard of it referred to that way). It may actually be a joke. I'll do some research on this and provide refs for them. Will remove 'puto malcohado' if I can't find refs for it. It would be particularly hilarious if both turn out to be homonyms.-- Obsidi ♠ n Soul  21:21, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, I've removed 'puto malcohido', referenced 'puto mamon'.-- Obsidi ♠ n Soul  21:47, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Neutrality
The tone of this article is very non-objective. Wjomlex (talk) 01:40, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Puto Bumbong is Lemang in Malaysia?
PutoBumbong seems to be too similar to Malaysian’s Lemang: Glutinous rice, coconut milk, all ingredients are put in a hollowed bamboo https://web.archive.org/web/20151210185511/http://www.bt.com.bn/checkout/2009/09/08/lemang-stalls-are-found-everywhere--BuhayPinoy (talk) 09:04, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Oppose. Hi guys, I have to oppose the proposal, for several reasons:
 * I don't think the Filipino food is the primary topic
 * There are several other, non-obscure topics with that name
 * Yes, there are lots of articles about food but I feel that food is perhaps is a bit overrepresented in our articles, compared to things like species etc
 * The word has a very clearly primary meaning (nothing to do with the rice cakes) in the minds of over 1 billion people in the world Dr. Vogel (talk) 21:08, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose That primary meaning to which refers is in a language that isn't English, so I don't accord much weight to that argument. However, it isn't clear to me that the word is known with any meaning among most English speakers, to the extent that one can say it has a primary meaning at all. At any rate, it's little enough known that there's no sense arguing over whether the word is substantially more associated (outside of the Philippines) with the Philippine dish than it is with the insect genus. Largoplazo (talk) 22:30, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Defer? I understand that where people go from the disambiguation page can be used as a determining factor, but since Puto was just made into a disambiguation page, we won't have a month's worth of WikiNav statistics on that until the end of May. So perhaps this discussion should be deferred to June. Largoplazo (talk) 22:38, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, the WikiNav and pageview data currently visible is from Puto the former food article, not Puto the dab. Certes (talk) 23:38, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Dr. Vogel and Largoplazo. There are six entries listed upon the Puto disambiguation page, with no indication that the renown of the food is so widespread throughout the world that it overshadows the combined notability of the remaining five entries. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:31, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose it seems to be the most common usage[|Puto_(food)|Puto_(film)|Puto_(TV_series)|Puto_(song)|Puto_(genus)|Puto] but the slang is also probably common.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 08:29, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose, no WP:PRIMARY.--Ortizesp (talk) 22:02, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
