#modern sensibilities... we do tend to solve so many of our hangups about ancient texts this way ehehe

Dean "had him by the thigh," is, like the reference to Philistines in the same episode, an ancient/Biblical one.

Cas's reaction, like "It's funnier in Enochian," is his reacting comically to what would be Biblical euphemism for: "Dean had him by the dick."

Much like a Seraphim "covers their feet" in the presence of God is a euphemism for covering their penises, ancient language also cloaked penis is euphemism like "hand, thigh, limb, flesh, etc."

I don't know, but it's just funny to think of Cas's mind jumping there first out of reflex and then his brain having to backpedal, like whoops.
