Outlawed: Thai women who upload selfies of their underboobs risk facing five years in jail, warns the Thai government.
I learnt a new word last week: underboob. I first saw the word in an online link to a newspaper article that said, “No Underboob Selfies!” Some days, I live my life in a thick fog, because without any accompanying photograph or text, I couldn’t quite decide what the word meant. I thought it might be that part of a woman’s body below (but not including) her breasts. Intrigued, I clicked on the link to find a photograph that showed a woman with her t-shirt hitched up to expose the “bottom” of her breasts.
The wordsmith in me immediately decided that “bottomboob” would be a more accurate term to describe this part of the breast.
