The word was used - strictly as a verb - at Harvard in the 1950s, to mean "hunker down for some serious studying," as in "I can't go out tonight. I have to wonk for my chem exam." The folk etymology was that it was KNOW spelled backwards, though how that led to the new meaning was cloudy at best. Though I never encountered it as a noun, I suppose people who did it could have been called wonkers.

Get the Wonking mug.1. basically the equivalent to using “fucking” in a sentence but not as a verb. ex: “my fucking indoor penis won’t stop running around.” 2. wonking can also mean masturbating. 3. it can also mean gingr activities like masturbating with an electric toothbrush.
