'Butt Naked' is just a an eggcorn of 'Buck Naked'....     

 

....  But it could also be considered a Bowdlerisation as in the modern world the original term 'Buck Naked' may be considered offensive to native Indians....    though the origins of 'Butt Naked' preceded the wokerarti take-over of the world....

 

.... Thus, its more likely that this is just a term people have miss-heard and repeated incorrectly  (ergo - eggcorn)

 

In much the same manner people commonly use the term 'burn their bridges'...  which is an eggcorn of 'to burn ones britches'....

 

 

 

 

 

What's an eggcorn please. We don't have that word in English.

Agreed. So long as it's female.

Just a minute!! My wife is just over 55Ks, but she is 5ft9ins tall.

Kudos richard_smith237.

 

Two new words from you. Your getting a trophy for eggcorn and wokerarti.

 

And to the OP. Just do it.

If it's a sexy young female butt naked on the balcony then who's going to complain? Maybe some outraged aunties or a "Chang Nam". 

 

Or Bob Smith just to get a few clicks!

I had never heard the term "butt naked" until a few decades ago. Back in the day, people said "buck naked". 

 

Try to say it fast and out loud, and butt naked makes more sense.  Buck naked is more of a tongue twister.

In the US generally (probably state by state laws apply)  you can be naked in your dwelling, you can sunbathe naked in your garden or poolside etc as long as it cannot be seen from outside, within reason. Now if somebody climbs up your fence or peeps between/ in your window drapes they are the one doing the crime. No, so you can't go naked on a balcony.

"No, so you can't go naked on a balcony".

That's in the US, so, very obviously, irrelevant to Thailand.

Never heard that one before, aren't you confusing it with " being too big for one's britches"?

Are you meaning there are other laws that fit that catogory?

Or are you refering something else Mr Liverpool Lou.

Is that the same as stark naked? Or Butt faced? or Butt ugly? 

Who cares?

I have already looked at your words as I see fit.

Just thought I would try and get you to be honest 

That has not happened.

I use the gym regularly, it's located in the middle building, surrounded by 4 other condominium buildings. As I'm exercising I regularly see older foreigners naked sitting on their balconies, it's not a nice sight. The balconies are glass, everything is exposed. 

 

It's weird seeing this awful sight.

 

As I'm working out, I tried to figure out what type of mind, what these guys are thinking. I reckon they've watched too many movies, hoping a young beautiful lady will knock on their door looking for sex.

You gotta be dancing and swinging your noodle.

As long as you do that, you're good.
