It's a perfectly good word for a male donkey (a female donkey is a jennyass). It is also a perfectly good, if rude, way to describe someone who is stubborn, loud and stupid as a jackass. The word has no connection with the word for your bottom, which is a corruption of the word "arse".


Why is it proper to say butt instead of ass?

Butt is a euphemism for ass ( properly spelled "arse"). Euphemisms pretend to soften the shock effect of an idea by calling it some other name.Butt is short for buttocks, it's not a euphemism. The word 'arse' as an insult originated by sailors and believed to come from an international mix of Old English aers, Germanic arsoz or arsch, Greek orros, and some others, all meaning buttocks, rump, or tail; then eventually changed because of it's similarity to 'ass', the stupid animal, to avoid the buttock connection by people with manners. How ironic...
