"...they would kidnap a girl and take her back to their camp where they would pull down her knickers, hoping to find hairs on her prat."
 * Panurge 1984, p.35:

"'She's a far better piece Than the Viceroy's niece, Who has also more fur on her prat.'"
 * The Limerick: 1700 Examples, with Notes, Variants and Index, Volume 1 1967, p.124 (Sourced there to 1942?) :

"My prat was sore from the unfamiliar activities of the night before, but my virgin bleeding had ceased, and we rode most of the day in that unworldly haze that comes with lack of sleep."
 * The Arms of Quirinus by Sherrie Seibert Goff, 2005. p135.:


 * That should suffice. -- Catsidhe (verba, facta) 08:53, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

Good research. Furthermore, since this is a debate about poular slang, 1st person evidence should be relevant: Where I come from (London and Kent)  and where my wifr comes from (N. yorkshire), Pratt is certainly slang for female genitalia and not for buttocks

I have added the citations and de-tagged this sense. -- Catsidhe (verba, facta) 06:15, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Dutch
I cannot find any source for a Dutch noun 'prat'. It is only found as an adjective. --DrJos (talk) 07:19, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
