So what's the difference between twat and twit?

Where I come from, "twat" is considered kind of a bad word. (a slang for a female body part)

Twit is just like a dummyhead.

Gaffer (or anyone), do you have an old one that has been passed down or something like that? I think it would be cool to have a vintage one with the family tartan (am I saying that correctly?).

Oh, I wonder if twat has that same connotation in Brit speak, because I thought I had seen them use it in the same way as twit.

(both v. funny sounding words!)

Yeah, a hand-me-down kilt would be really cool to have! (as long as it wasn't too moth-eaten, in which case it might be too cool)

Yeah, it is a hand-me-down. And come to think of it, I didn't ask my dad whether he washed it first. Hmmm.

Select your smutty innuendo from the following list:
- Maybe that accounts for the smell.
- Maybe that's why he handed it down.
- Maybe that's why the cloth stands up on its own.

It's not a family tartan, though; we're too obscure to have a clan. I'm sure it's some clan's tartan, but I couldn't tell you which one. The tartan thing is, IIRC, largely a concoction from the 1820s after Walter Scott and others set about sanitising the Highlanders for the benefit of George IV. blah blah

I do like the accessories, though. Sporrans are great, the hairier the better. Sadly, mine is bald and leathery with some dangly bits.

Again, select your smutty innuendo from the following list:
- And so's my sporran.
- So the outside matches the underside.
- etc etc

As for twat, it is both an idiot and a front bottom; it's also a verb for to hit. So, in theory you could twat someone in the twat for being a twat, but that would be very ungentlemanly, and you would definitely deserve to have your cobblers kicked in reply.

The good thing about twat is that it's a nicely rude way of referring to a vagina, much like "willy" (what's the American for willy?) It seems like all the others words are considered unacceptable.

EDIT: I meant to ask: what exactly is it that you like about men in kilts (apart from the vague "hot" thing)?

I just like to see people wearing things that went out of fashion a long time ago. . .the sorts of things most people don't wear anymore. And kilts, well, um. . .old, traditional whosface. I just think that's cool. It's not so much a "hot" thing for me.
