OP Thanks, Rouspeteur. While the area of the body involved, and the sound suggest the possibility of a common origin, there is no record of it. I was also thinking of the analogy seen in "seat" which means the thing that supports the posterior, but is also used at times to refer to the buttocks, and the part of trousers that covers that area. So, snip this thread.
