Geoff:
Butt doesn't apparently carry quite the same weight as it does in the US. 
It's quite a harmless word. I'll perhaps sit down next to one of the young 
people on a small bench seat and say "Shift your butt, there's a good chap" 
and there's no embarrassment or insult involved.

But, using "butty" merely indicates a reference to sandwiches; no link to 
nether regions is implied. 

There is another informal word for sandwich - "sarnie" which I think 
might be a London usage.
