LOL!!! well, I took the liberty of retitling the thread! BTW, the other day I said to my baby after her bath, "quick come to mummy and get your nappy on, we can all see your fanny and your rudey bum"...
My boys thought it was HILARIOUS and have spent the last week trying to fit the word "fanny" into plausible sentences... This is because we have always adopted the philosophy of calling their "parts" by their "real" names. Of course, it doesn't work in toddler speak though, as the boys "bit" becomes a "Pee-nut" and the girls bit becomes a "G-iiina" - if you get my drift... I know one little girl that calls hers a "Koala" - don't ask me how that ever eventuated!! But just sooooo cute... Ok, this is the most OT thread I've ever participated in and I am going to stop now before someone starts to lecture me about safety issues and talking about this type of stuff on the internet... *eek* tan. ----- Original Message ----- From: "graywolf" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2004 10:42 AM Subject: Re: * ist Digital Question > So far it seems to be buttocks/breasts*, hobos, and prostitutes --e.g. fannies, > bums, & solicitors.
