The illustration MIGHT be NSFW.

 * I wouldn't agree. The image is accurate. What we (by which I mean some editors) object to would be an image involving nudity that's not relevant or tenuously relevant to the term in question. Mglovesfun (talk) 14:12, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

RFV discussion
Strippers wear pasties, no argument there. But can it be attested in the singular in this spelling? I would have said the singular was pastie (and indeed, I do see cites for that). Otherwise I can't help picturing a strange and not unappealing image involving a popular Cornish snack. < class="latinx" >Ƿidsiþ 14:20, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It appears to be about equally as common as pastie: and I've added four cites. Annoyingly there were several more where the bgc snippet didn't actually quite include the relevant passage. Thryduulf (talk) 18:09, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

RFV passed. Thanks for the cites, Thryduulf! —Ruakh TALK 16:43, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Pâté?
Chambers 1908 has this rather odd entry: "Pâté, n. pie: pasty. Pâté de foie gras, pasty of fat goose liver." I think it must be an error, perhaps because of Strasbourg pie, but thought I'd mention it here. Equinox ◑ 22:39, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
