That's cuter for Commonwealth citizens as 'fanny' means front bottom to us ... and a pvssy has 4 legs, a tail and whiskers and says 'miaow' (settle down @theFixer, just walk on).
I have never heard the term ‘fanny’ for anything other than that. I thought that’s why it’s called a ‘fanny pack’
 
We were looking at sparkly basses earlier in the thread. I know a lot of folks might find the paint job on this G&L ASAT to be a bit over the top but I sort of like it. I would consider this but the pups/electronics seem very similar to my 2015 bird (except this has active/passive option).

I would rock that.
 
I have no further comment.

We call them 'bum bags'.

Re usage of 'fanny', wee Scots lassies use the 'c' word to refer to people they don't (or maybe do) like, ie as a non-gendered epithet only. The body part is their 'fanny'.

So if you say 'fanny' to a British person, that's why they may grin oddly, or have a little giggle.

Few of my Brit friends told me the best insult is “Piss off you bloody c***”

It elicits good responses despite the audience
 
I wonder if said woman has ever visited any of those countries. I bet it would be pretty hilarious.

When I lived in Scotland, one of my daily work tasks was clearing stuff out of the email profanity filter. Someone was having frequent correspondence with a woman called Fanny something or other and the emails were always getting caught.

Any mention of Scunthorpe was problematic also.

A room full of Brit's would likely fall to pieces if the song, "The Weight" by The Band were to come over the air!

Take a load off Fanny, and you put the load right on me"
