Go to your local Poonography shop and peruse pretty much anything and you’ll see what I mean.
answer
“Poon”, short for “poontang” (from the French putain, prostitute) refers to sexual intercourse, or to a woman seen as a possible source of sexual gratification, as in “I need to get me some poon!”
It’s hard to know whether “poonography” is an eggcorn in any specific case, as opposed to just wordplay, but the pronunciation similarity and obvious meaning connection make it very plausible to me that it’s an eggcorn for some.
