CANBERRA (Reuters) - Contemplating a New Year tattoo in that fashionable area above the buttocks? To help you along, Australians have given them a not-so-fashionable name: "arse antlers." Want a suntan as well? You could have "tanorexia."
These are just some of the words the country's biggest online dictionary is asking people to vote for as word of the year for its latest annual update.
A "butt bra" raises the profile of the buttocks to go with your arse antlers, while "manscaping" refers to removal of body hair for men, sometimes tied to the female preoccupation with the "lady garden," or pubic zone.
"Tanorexia" refers to an obsession with a suntan, while a "salad dodger" is an obese person.
Arse antlers... thats a great one. I also like 'lady garden'.
