Talk:The Full Monty (phrase)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As I understand the latest meaning of the term "The Full Monty", it refers to full frontal nudity as portrayed in one famous "Monty Python" episode in which an actress is standing totally naked at a news stand. The scene is short lived and had little to do with the skit. I presume the crew was trying to slip one by the censors. JFR (moved from main page)

[edit] origin of the word " monty"

Many english words in the field of cooking , love-making , toilette , perfumes , feminine underwear etc... come from the ( more or less deformed) french vocabulaire . For me " monty" comes obviously from the french " monté" . A strip-tease joint owner advertising full-nudity sketches would of course prefer to hire actors who are " bien montés" ( i.e. in french : endowed with nice secondary sexual organs ) signed arapaima —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.164.81.114 (talk) 10:01, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
