This reminds me of something I heard about coger and South America. I wonder if it would have a different meaning.

hahaha in Spain "coger" is a more naïve verb, it just means "to take, to catch" :P

Segun he oido el significado de coger viene de las conquistas cuando los españoles asaltaban un asentamiento decian:

"Matad a los hombres y coged a las mujeres y los niños"

Pero no le doy demasiada credibilidad.

Gracias Wallebot por tu explicación. La verdad es que la explicación me parece bastante razonable.

Como muchas leyendas urbanas parece bastante razonable, pero no estoy seguro del todo :P
