Talk:bare-butt

bare-arse
More Verbo/Fastifex spanking stuff (yes, I'm aware that isn't a deletion reason). Rationale, these aren't words but rather two words linked by a hyphen, and mean exactly what the sum of their parts expresses ( + butt/bum/arse). The 'stark naked' sense I supposed could be rfv'd. Not sure it exists; not heard of it. Mglovesfun (talk) 09:36, 2 June 2012 (UTC)


 * barebutt, barebum, and barearse all would meet the CFI (the middle term was used by James Joyce in Ulysses and the latter appears in the poetry of John Cheever. bd2412 T 15:04, 2 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep all. The "stark naked" sense (now cited) gives these terms a certain level of idiomaticity, and the existence of the compound forms barearse, barebum, and barebutt (also cited now) means they pass COALMINE. "Bare-bum" is also listed in a couple of reputable slang dictionaries as Australian slang for a short dinner jacket. I couldn't find cites showing usage myself, but perhaps someone else will have better lucking hunting for them. Astral (talk) 22:36, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
