And for some reason, "fanny" doesn't mean ass.

I only found out Americans use fanny for arse recently and it's bewildering like

It sounds so wrong aaaaa

It sounds pretty quaint or old timey in most places now, so it doesn't really get used much

To be fucked in the bum doesn't sound quite right either though.

I'm pretty sure "bum" can be used as a verb in tea land. If you say you bummed someone, it means you engaged in anal sex with them. Not to be confused with bumming something, which means to cadge.

Brits please confirm or deny.

Absolutely you can bum someone. Although I feel like it's not quite as titillating when sexting!

Also, nice use of cadge.

Say that to the guy who has a lorry full of sex arses stuck in the Brexit queue outside Calais.
