Whatever it is you are doing? I'm sure you'll find a name for it.

What a brilliant site! Thanks, Biff - it's gone straight into my bookmarks Reference folder.
But I'm not sure that 'fannying' is the female equivalent of 'willy waving'. According to your dictionary, fannying means "To mess about, to waste time on needless activities."
Whereas the male of the species is : " n. An unbearable male show-off. peacock; idiot; moron; tard. British slang."
There must surely be something that means the same, but with 'female' instead of 'male'.

There isn't a direct equivalent, Moo. You see blokes never "mess about, to waste time on needless activities."
OK, OK, just getting my coat....

From the BBC News magazine Monitor blog 16th Jan 2008
(I couldn't make a direct link work)
"Environmentally conscious people - those who recycle, buy eco-friendly detergents and belong to green groups - are 7% more likely to take flights than the general population, a poll of 25,000 people by the market research company Target Group Index has found."
Hmm. I wonder if their environmental consciousness arose from the guilt of their above-average flying or whether environmental consciousness is generally more prevalent among the better off?
