Are we looking for all-purpose can-be-used-in-public words? Or other?

When I first moved here, I couldn't figure out what w*nk*r meant. Someone told me it was a guy that slappers went out with. I was none the wiser.

The older end of the market can be Old Gits or (maybe this is N.American) Old Geezers.

In this part of Wales, they use *cwrcyn* / tomcat or "pwdryn" / lazy sod.

It isn't easy, is it?
