    The term "backside", the way you used it was perfectly innocent, nothing wrong with it.
    As another poster said, it can be a bad phrase but it's all about how you use it.
    I don't think innocent discussions about the jewels on Downtown Abbey count.
    ....btw..is now a good time to admit that I am probably the only person on this board who has never watched Downton Abbey?
