Phoondi is not gross. It is our national pastime. Etymology tell us that the word is derived from ‘bhoond’ meaning honey bee. Young guys are attracted towards fair sex as those bees attracted towards honey. Perfectly logical and natural given the social perimeters within which our youth has to behave.
Tharki is not a slang. It is a proper word in Hindi and Urdu, derived from Tharak; a natural instinct, intensity of which is found to be correlated with an average male’s age.
If ‘Boti’ is gross, then on behalf of ahl-e-zuban, I declare the Urdu language full of filth.
Perhaps you guys would prefer something like what the gentleman Nawab asked a courtesan in classical Urdu;
“kya aap hamain apnay gulshan-e-ismat ki khosha cheeni ki ijazat marahamat farmain gi?”
