MooningMooning is the act of displaying one's bare buttocks by lowering the backside of one's trousers and underpants, usually without exposing the front side by bending forward. It is generally considered a rude and disrespectful or insulting act, but is much less offensive than flashing. It is often performed as a form of protest or simply for fun. Mooning is sometimes performed from a moving vehicle. The act of placing one's buttocks against glass while mooning (for example, a car window) is known as a pressed ham. Formerly, mooning was slang for wandering idly and romantically pining. Popular culture The film Braveheart contains a scene in which over a thousand Scottish warriors mooned the English forces, though this had not actually taken place in the historical battle depicted. Mooning scenes were included in the 1950s-set films American Graffiti and Grease. At the 2004 MTV Movie Awards, Eminem and his band mooned the crowd. On the TV series Futurama (TV series), Fry moons world-domineering billionaire robot company owner Mom by squishing his bare buttocks up against a window, eliciting her response, "You call that a pressed ham?!"
