The first time that I heard this - and it has stuck in my mind, so it's quite possible that it was the first time it was used in a public context - was sometime in the 1980s by Ben Elton on the Mary Whitehouse Experience BBC TV show. He did a long piece about how he wanted to tell a joke about female genitals but the "powers that be" in the BBC couldn't think of a work that he could use to refer to the "front bottom". In the end they agree to let him call it the "toot toot". — This unsigned comment was added by 86.6.8.194 (talk) at 14:39, 19 April 2007 (UTC).
